Software Engineer - Developer Experience

Requirements:

• 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.

Nice to Have:

• 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.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Help teams outside Aura develop in Aura.
• Contribute to the AI domain for Aura development.
• Treat DevEx as a product.
