About the role
- Pantheon is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Connectivity & API Transformation team.
- We're expanding an impressive and growing platform that powers hundreds of thousands of websites, millions of containerized resources, billions of monthly page views, and development tools that professional website developers use.
- Pantheon's core company values are Trust, Teamwork, Passion, and Customers First.
Responsibilities
- Building and evolving Pantheon's unified API - a federated GraphQL supergraph (Grafbase, Federation v2) and the Go subgraphs behind it that serve our Dashboard and public API
- Setting the GraphQL, gRPC, and REST standards other Pantheon teams build against, and acting as a technical resource for initiatives across the org
- Raising the level of engineers around you through code review, design feedback, and mentorship
- Significant work experience building and operating production services in Go, and the adaptability to work in a polyglot codebase - our stack also includes Rust and Python
- Experience designing APIs that other teams depend on, with real judgment about schema design, versioning, and backward compatibility. GraphQL, gRPC, or REST at scale all count
- Working knowledge of cloud networking fundamentals - VPCs, DNS, load balancing, and service-to-service authentication - and the judgment to make network boundaries a deliberate design choice rather than an accident
Requirements
- Work-related experience with large-scale, high-traffic distributed systems, and with designing scalable and robust services in the real world
- Experience with a major cloud provider
- Hands-on experience with GraphQL Federation, a federation gateway or router (Grafbase, Apollo, Hive), or a schema registry
- Experience with Cassandra, or with running a stateful datastore in production - backups, DR, multi-region replication
- Hands-on experience with private service networking or a service mesh - Shared VPC, VPC peering, Private Service Connect, internal DNS, Istio/Envoy
