About this role

Our Public Cloud engineering teams are responsible for maintaining and building out a large-scale distributed systems engineering platform that supports hundreds of features for high-compliance environments.

As a software engineer on the GovCloud Developer Platform team, you will work within team-defined designs and architecture to help deliver robust product onboarding experiences, cloud-native services, and resilient infrastructure. You will collaborate closely with senior engineers to implement microservices, participate in on-call rotations, and ensure high availability and security compliance.

Your Impact

  • Deliver feature components supporting our portfolio into high-compliance environments under guidance from senior team members.
  • Build and maintain microservices and cloud infrastructure using tools such as Terraform, Docker, and Kubernetes.
  • Author substrate-aware configurations, modules, and templates based on established team patterns.
  • Analyze, debug, and resolve standard system issues and support feature delivery with high test coverage.
  • Participate in the team’s on-call rotation, handling common alerts and utilizing team telemetry to troubleshoot operational problems.
  • Write clean, maintainable code, leaving the codebase in better shape than you found it.

Minimum Qualifications

  • 2 - 4 years of experience in a software development role building and managing cloud infrastructure or distributed systems.
  • Proficiency in at least one modern language such as Python, Go, or Java.
  • Familiarity with cloud-native tooling and orchestration (e.g., Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Experience working within Agile development methodologies, Test-Driven Development (TDD), and writing well-tested code.
  • Strong willingness to ask questions, learn system architectures, and collaborate effectively with a team.
