The Role

As a software engineer at XetHub, you own the design, development, and operations of key components in our data platform. The XetHub platform enables engineering & science teams to work with code and data together, using the tools that they’re familiar with. The platform includes a high-performance client (written in Rust), a web application & REST APIs (written in Go + HTML/JS/CSS), and a custom distributed data store (written in Rust).

This is a full-time, US-based hybrid-remote position, with a local office in Seattle. Compensation is competitive, including salary, equity, health plan, vacation, and more. As a core member of the team, you will be a key contributor to our company and culture, building a fast-growing product with amazing colleagues in a supportive family-friendly environment.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science (a related field) or equivalent practical experience.
• Technical skills (all of us write code) and experience with distributed systems and production cloud computing.
• A passion for making simple, robust, and scalable platforms used by engineering and science teams.
• Strong system software development skills, with proficiency in Rust, Go, and/or C++.
• Creative, collaborative, and product-focused.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience designing and building efficient, high-performance data storage and retrieval systems.
• Experience in startup environments (smaller teams, wearing many hats, high trust, comfortable with ambiguity).
• Experience with operating production systems (monitoring, alarming, distributed debugging & recovery).
• Experience with Rust, Git internals, cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP, etc), databases (relational and non-relational), or networking a plus.
