- Prototype and productionize new platform capabilities and internal tooling
- Influence engineering direction and technical standards across Kong
What You'll bring:
- Strong production experience with Golang
- Experience designing and operating distributed systems at scale
- Solid experience with PostgreSQL and Redis in production environments
- Experience building backend systems with high availability, scalability, and reliability
