You will help the Data team improve the reliability, speed, efficiency, and security of the platform that powers our real-time logging and stats products.

What You'll Do

  • Write tools to automate maintenance and deployment of machines, services, and applications that power the core of Fastly’s data platform.
  • Monitor and operate infrastructure to enable rapid deployment and resilient operation in a large-scale Linux environment.
  • Participate in an on-call rotation.
  • Collaborate in the design, construction, deployment, and maintenance of the software systems that collect, transport, and make data available to the Fastly organization.

  • Experience programming in Go, Ruby or similar languages
  • Experience with configuration management tools such as Chef or Puppet

  • A keen desire to learn, grow new skills, and move up the stack

  • Pub/sub style message queues such as NSQ, Kafka, Google Pub/Sub, Kinesis
  • Relational and non-relational storage systems (MySQL, BigTable, BigQuery, Dynamo, Cassandra)
  • Containers and container management tools (Docker, Kubernetes, etc)

Why Fastly?

  • We have a huge impact. Fastly is a small company with a big reach. Our customers have a tremendous user base, and we support a growing number of open source projects and initiatives. Outside of code, employees are encouraged to share causes close to their hearts 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. In fact, 50% of our employees work outside of SF! An international remote culture is part of our DNA.
  • We care about you. Fastly works hard to create a positive environment for our employees, and we think your life outside of work is important too. We support our teams with great benefits, like generous parental leave, options for free medical/dental/vision plans, and an open vacation program that enables our folks to take the time they need to recharge (some benefits may vary by location).
  • 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’re passionate about.

We’re always looking for humble, sharp, and creative folks to join the Fastly team. If you think you might be a fit please apply!
