Design, build, and operate the C++ and Go services that provide secure, reliable connections between the cloud and SimpliSafe devices and route their messages to the rest of our platform

Contribute to the shared libraries our services are built on, including metrics, tracing, logging, authentication, and concurrency primitives

Lead engineering projects end to end, from design doc through staged rollout, zero-downtime production cutover and decommissioning (for example EC2 to Kubernetes, OS upgrades, CI/CD platform changes)

Help move device messaging onto an event-streaming platform, including a shared event format, schemas and code generation, and load testing

Build cloud-side connectivity for next-generation devices, including new device capabilities, device provisioning, and certificate management

Design for reliability at peak load: connection limits, load shedding, connection draining, graceful shutdown, pre-scaling, and multi-region architecture.

Own observability for the services you work on: distributed tracing, metrics, crash detection, and dashboards and alerts managed as code

Debug hard production problems across services and AWS infrastructure, lead root-cause analyses, and see the follow-up work through

Write design documents, review designs from other teams, and work with other engineering teams on features that span devices and the cloud

Keep services secure and current: certificates and CAs, least-privilege IAM, network policy, fixing security scan findings, and regular releases and dependency updates
