New York, New York, United States Fastly Full time
Job Description

Fastly is seeking a highly skilled Software Engineer to join our Compute Platform team. As a key member of our team, you will be responsible for designing and developing software solutions that power our edge cloud platform.

Our edge cloud platform enables customers to create great digital experiences quickly, securely, and reliably by processing, serving, and securing our customers' applications as close to their end-users as possible — at the edge of the Internet.

You will focus on the technology that powers Fastly's Compute platform – an advanced serverless platform built on open standards which runs on our global edge network.

While we work in multiple programming languages, most of the work for this role, at least initially, will be C++, with some Rust development.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and develop software solutions that power our edge cloud platform
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration and deployment of software solutions
  • Stay ahead of the latest technology trends and implement them in our platform
  • Contribute to code reviews and improve the codebase
  • Manage projects from a technical lead role and communicate project status to stakeholders

Requirements:

  • At least 8+ years of Software Engineering experience building developer tools & ecosystems or doing language design
  • Expert understanding of the JS ecosystem
  • Comfortable in a C++ codebase
  • Production Rust experience
  • A keen sense of what a good developer experience looks like and a drive to deliver it

What We Offer:

  • A comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Family planning, mental health support along with Employee Assistance Program, Insurance (Life, Disability, and Accident), a Flexible Vacation policy and up to 18 days of accrued paid sick leave
  • 401(k) (including company match) and an Employee Stock Purchase Program
  • 10 paid local holidays, 11 paid company wellness days

Why Fastly?

We have a huge impact. Fastly is a small company with a big reach. Not only do our customers have a tremendous user base, but we also support a growing number of open source projects and initiatives. Outside of code, employees are encouraged to share causes close to their heart with others so we can help lend a supportive hand.

We love distributed teams. Fastly's home-base is in San Francisco, but we have multiple offices and employees sprinkled around the globe. As a new hire, you will be able to attend our IN-PERSON new hire orientation in our San Francisco office. It is an exciting week-long experience that we offer to new employees to build connections with colleagues across Fastly, participate in hands-on learning opportunities, and immerse yourself in our culture firsthand.

We value diversity. Growing and maintaining our inclusive and diverse team matters to us. We are committed to being a company where our employees feel comfortable bringing their authentic selves to work and have the ability to be successful every day.

We are passionate. Fastly is chock full of passionate people and we're not 'one size fits all'. Fastly employs authors, pilots, skiers, parents (of humans and animals), makeup geeks, coffee connoisseurs, and more. We love employees for who they are and what they are passionate about.
