Requirements
Candidates should possess 2-5 years of professional software engineering experience, a solid background in backend or systems-level development, proficiency in at least one programming language such as Rust, C++, Go, or similar, experience designing and consuming APIs for service-to-service communication, an understanding of high-level communication protocols like HTTP and WebSockets, and comfort working with distributed systems or edge-deployed services. Furthermore, applicants must demonstrate the ability to reason about concurrency, performance, and fault-tolerant architectures, along with strong collaboration skills for working with other engineers and product teams.
Responsibilities
The Senior Software Engineer will lead the development of core edge services that power Ditto’s mesh-based systems, build software that manages peer discovery, multi-hop communication, and routing across unreliable or dynamic networks, design clean, efficient APIs that allow higher-level applications to interact with the mesh layer, develop and maintain the Ditto Edge Server, a lightweight deployment optimized for small infrastructure footprints, and contribute to protocol design, transport abstraction, and system-level performance improvements. They will also collaborate with other engineers and product teams to deliver end-to-end features that reach real-world users.
