What is the opportunity?
As a Staff Engineer, you will play a key role in designing and building large-scale distributed systems and platform services that power our core platform. This role goes beyond feature development—you will own system design, performance, scalability, and operational excellence of critical services. You will work on high-throughput, low-latency systems, solving complex problems in data processing, service orchestration, and reliability engineering, while influencing architectural direction and engineering best practices across teams.
What will you do?
- Design and implement scalable, high-performance backend systems using Go, with a strong focus on reliability, observability, and efficiency.
- Own end-to-end architecture and system design, including service decomposition, data modeling, API design, and inter-service communication patterns.
- Drive performance optimization initiatives across services (CPU, memory, I/O, network), and identify bottlenecks using profiling and observability tools.
- Troubleshoot complex production issues, including distributed system failures, latency spikes, and resource contention across multi-service environments.
- Build and operate systems leveraging Kafka, PostgreSQL, OpenSearch, and caching layers (Redis/Valkey) for high-scale workloads.
- Design and operate services in containerized environments (Docker) orchestrated via Kubernetes or HashiStack (Nomad/Consul/Vault).
- Collaborate with Product, SRE, and Security teams to ensure resilient, secure, and production-ready solutions.
- Contribute to and drive engineering excellence through design reviews, code reviews, and mentoring junior engineers.
- Participate in full software lifecycle ownership: requirements, design, implementation, testing, deployment, and production support.
- Champion DevOps and “You build it, you run it” culture, including CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, alerting, and incident response.
What will you bring to Omnissa?
- Strong programming expertise in Go, with deep understanding of concurrency, memory management, and performance tuning.
- Extensive experience building distributed systems and microservices architectures at scale.
- Strong understanding of system design principles, including scalability, fault tolerance, consistency models, and trade-offs.
- Deep knowledge of Linux systems, including processes, networking stack, file systems, and performance diagnostics.
- Hands-on experience with containerization (Docker) and orchestration using Kubernetes or HashiStack (Nomad, Consul, Vault).
- Strong experience with event-driven and data-inte
