Engineer II - Backend - Terraform Runtime

About the team

The Terraform Runtime team owns “Stacks”. Stacks aim to be a natural next step in extending infrastructure as code to a higher layer using the same Terraform shared modules users enjoy today. They help users optimize the coordination, deployment, and management of interdependent Terraform configurations, across any number of environments, reducing the time and overhead of managing infrastructure with Terraform.

About the role

We’re looking for a Software Engineer II to join our team. The majority of the libraries we maintain are written in Golang and are open source or source-available, receiving contributions from a large community of users. You will help review, fix, design, prototype and implement features and tools while ensuring stability and usability. You will interact regularly with collaborators on other teams to deliver multi-team engineering efforts. This is an opportunity to have an impact not just on the productivity and lives of developers, but on improving an industry as a whole.

We operate autonomously in a highly collaborative, remote-first environment. Anchored by reflection and humility, we’re steadily improving our processes and technical practices. With the support of your teammates and manager, you’ll grow your skills to reach the next level in your career.

In this role, you can expect to:

• Develop, advocate for, and support new and existing features 
• Spend time writing about customer problems, potential solutions, and more in the form of RFCs (Requests For Comments)
• Engage open source contributors, promote healthy community engagement, and follow standards for effectively working in the open
• Empathize with the end user and be their voice when influencing priorities and technical decisions
• Participate in cross-team working groups while developing your knowledge as a subject matter expert
• Enable your teammates through technical contributions, code reviews, and pairing
• Work with internal and external stakeholders to determine and prioritize new features and enhancements critical to the success of HashiCorp customers and the broader community

You may be a good fit for our team if some of the following apply:

• You have professional experience developing with Go
• You have experience with API development
• You have experience or interest in learning Terraform and Terraform internals
• You have experience or are interested in working in an open source software development environment
• You enjoy working collaboratively on a fully-remote, fast-moving team
• You have strong written communication skills, and you understand how to use tools like code review to asynchronously unblock and level up your peers
• You have 3+ years of professional software engineering experience
