About Convex
Convex is transforming the way developers build applications. Our mission is to fundamentally change how software is built on the Internet by empowering developers to create fast, reliable, and dynamic apps without the headaches of complex backend engineering or the hassles of database administration. We provide a cutting-edge, full-stack developer platform that seamlessly combines a powerful custom database with an integrated execution environment.
The Team
Convex has assembled a team of technologists who have built and designed some of the largest backends in the world, with exabytes of data, millions of transactions per second, and shipped desktop and mobile software onto billions of devices. We are a group of friendly, collaborative, and passionate individuals that love working in-person together in our offices in SF and NYC.
The Role
The Convex team has a lot of experience running large systems at scale, but as our infrastructure footprint grows across databases, servers, and DevOps, we are looking to hire an exceptional senior or staff-level engineer to help us build and maintain infrastructure for the future of Convex at scale. If you are passionate about building distributed systems and have a strong background in designing and operating web infrastructure at scale, we would love to talk to you!
What You’ll Do
- Design, build, and maintain Convex’s global cloud infrastructure on AWS.
- General ownership of SRE/DevOps which includes automating Convex’s monitoring and logging tools, developing traffic infrastructure for efficient and secure routing requests, managing release processing, versioning, and CI/CD.
- Establish reliability guidelines and ensuring systems meet our goals around durability, availability, and performance.
What Excites Us
- Bachelors, Masters, or PhD in Computer Science (or related technical field with equivalent technical experience).
- 5+ years of backend engineering experience building and operating infrastructure with a deep knowledge of systems at scale.
- Good understanding of best practices for system configuration, building internal systems from scratch, and deploying services.
- Experience scaling in a high growth startup environment.
- Interest to work in-person at Convex's office in SF.
- Ability to write high quality code (knowledge of Rust is a plus).
Compensation
- Salary Range: $208,000 - $250,000 per year
Join us at Convex and be part of a team that is redefining how applications are built and deployed. We offer a competitive salary and the opportunity to work with cutting-edge technology in a collaborative and innovative environment.
