Job Description

yeet is built by a tight-knit group of systems, observability, and kernel nerds who refuse to accept 'mystery outages' as normal. We're a small, high-impact team with domain expertise in Linux, eBPF, performance instrumentation, and developer tooling. We move fast, ship often, and take deep ownership. If you enjoy operating close to the metal, building tools that real engineers lean on during 3 AM incident sprints, and solving hard problems with minimal overhead, you'll feel right at home here.

Job Responsibility

  • Building yeetd, the dynamic BPF runtime that powers on-demand observability across fleets of Linux servers
  • Living close to the kernel
  • Pushing Rust's concurrency model to its limits
  • Solving problems that don't have StackOverflow answers

Requirements

  • Deep systems-level experience with Linux
  • Fluent in Rust beyond syntax
  • Understanding of synchronization primitives, memory models, and performance trade-offs
  • Experience with or excitement to dive into eBPF, perf events, and kernel instrumentation
  • Ability to turn 'black box' Linux behavior into something observable and explainable

Nice to have

  • Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field with focus on systems or networking
  • Hands-on experience with Linux kernel contributing patches, debugging kernel modules, or building tools in kernel space
  • Familiarity with low-level networking (sockets, TCP/IP stack internals, packet processing)
  • Prior work on extremely high-performance system software (databases, runtimes, observability tooling, compilers, etc.)
  • Exposure to distributed systems or large-scale infrastructure
