Buoyant is the company behind Linkerd, the CNCF-graduated service mesh for Kubernetes. We’re a small, fully remote engineering team building a new cloud-native infrastructure product.
We’re looking for a senior, self-directed engineer who has built production infrastructure software and is comfortable working deep in the Kubernetes ecosystem.
Relevant experience may include Kubernetes APIs, controllers/operators, CRDs, reconciliation systems, distributed systems/control-plane engineering, Go and/or Rust, gRPC, networking, service mesh, security, identity, or other cloud infrastructure.
This is a hands-on role with significant architectural ownership on a small engineering team.
Location: Remote – US, Canada, South America, or Europe with Central European Time-compatible working hours.
