About the role

You'll work on the services that accept, validate and route every event sent to Tessera. Latency budgets are tight and reliability is the product.

What you'll do

  • Design and ship changes to our Go ingestion and routing services

  • Improve p99 latency and cost per million events

  • Write the runbooks and docs your future teammates will thank you for

You might be a fit if

  • You've run high-throughput systems in production

  • You like Go, Postgres and Kafka, or can pick them up fast

  • You write clearly, in code reviews and in docs

How we hire

A 30-minute intro call, a paid take-home that mirrors real work (capped at 4 hours), a pairing session with the team, and a final chat with a founder. Most processes take under three weeks.
