Software Engineer - Developer Experience

Strong collaboration and communication skills.

Golang experience

Experience using Golang for multiple software projects ranging from scripting to larger microservice-type applications.

Some knowledge around the Golang build and packaging system.

Solid software engineering experience, including shipping tools other engineers use (CLIs, libraries, internal platforms, or developer-facing services).

Enough Kubernetes and container literacy to help someone develop in Aura — Pods, Deployments, Docker images, and how software gets onto a cluster. Deep operator/control-plane work is not the job; being lost in Kubernetes is not viable either.

Experience with modern CI/CD and Git-based workflows: taking a change from a branch to something running in an environment.

Clear writing. A large part of this job is skills, docs, and instructions that both humans and models follow.

An interest in other developers’ pain points, especially people who are new to a platform, and the ability to design solutions that address those pain points.

Experience with “platform as a product” or developer experience work: interviewing users, caring about onboarding, measuring adoption.

Experience maintaining AI skill files, agent instructions, MCP servers, or similar structured context for coding agents.

Experience with Kubernetes-related developer tooling (Make, Kustomize, Helm) and with simplifying local workflows.

Experience integrating software with Google Cloud Platform, AWS, or Azure.

Experience with observability: tracing, logging, and metrics — including for AI workflows.
