Description

  • Architect distributed systems that tolerate latency, bandwidth constraints, and intermittent connectivity.
  • Design loosely coupled services that reduce cross-system fragility.
  • Implement fault-tolerant communication and state synchronization strategies.
  • Develop systems that prioritize correctness, durability, and recovery.
  • Implement retry logic, backpressure, caching strategies, and eventual consistency patterns.
  • Design and maintain APIs and communication layers between distributed components.
  • Identify and reduce tight coupling across services.
  • Diagnose and resolve cross-system failures in production environments.
  • Write efficient, production-grade code in Rust or Go.
  • Optimize performance and memory usage in resource-constrained environments.
  • Debug network behavior, concurrency issues, and distributed coordination challenges.

Requirements

  • Extensive experience building loosely coupled distributed systems.
  • Experience working in environments with low bandwidth, high latency, or unreliable communication links.
  • Knowledge of failure modes in distributed architectures and mitigation strategies.
  • Ability to reason about consistency models, coordination strategies, and state replication.
  • Experience writing production systems in Rust or Go.
  • Experience solving systems-level engineering challenges.
  • Strong focus on durability, reliability, and operational behavior.
  • Experience with edge computing or constrained network environments (preferred).
  • Familiarity with message queues, event-driven systems, or streaming architectures (preferred).
  • Background in AI or HPC-related distributed systems (preferred).
  • Experience debugging production networking issues (preferred).
  • Exposure to consensus algorithms or distributed coordination primitives (preferred).
