Job Description:

We’re helping organizations deploy supergraphs at scale using Apollo Federation. Our Runtime organization owns the critical tier of GraphOS - the underlying engine central to making GraphOS a highly performant, secure, governed, and reliable self-service GraphQL platform. As a key member of the Router Core team, you’ll be at the heart of this mission, building and maintaining the de facto standard GraphQL runtime platform, enabling engineering teams to ship faster and deliver richer experiences than ever before.

Job Responsibility:

  • Build, test, and maintain fault-tolerant infrastructure for GraphQL runtime platforms, primarily in idiomatic Rust
  • Operate and improve durable, stable public APIs used by the world’s most demanding GraphQL workloads
  • Engage directly with users to understand their needs, debug issues, and bring insights back to influence the platform’s evolution
  • Design scalable, observable systems that integrate seamlessly into diverse customer infrastructure stacks
  • Collaborate with engineers across teams using supportive communication and constructive code reviews
  • Mentor and guide teammates in architecting and writing idiomatic Rust code
  • Lead architectural discussions and cross-team initiatives
  • Develop comprehensive technical designs and documentation that address cost efficiency, security, and observability
  • Participate in on-call rotations to ensure the reliability of mission-critical systems

Requirements:

  • Experience with Rust and enjoy writing performant, maintainable code
  • Expertise in systems engineering, including knowledge of stateless/fault-tolerant systems, event-driven patterns, and distributed paradigms
  • Excel at cross-team collaboration and have a “rising tide lifts all boats” mentality
  • Passionate about GraphQL, modern developer tooling, and contributing to industry-leading innovations
  • Have a growth mindset and actively seek opportunities to learn and stay current with industry trends

Nice to have:

Experience with GraphQL or large-scale runtime systems
