What are we hiring for?

The platform underneath our two biggest systems.

Workflows executes 21.5 billion automation actions a month from 3.1 billion enrollments. Conversations moves 2.6 billion messages in the same window. Together they run on thousands of pods, across 50+ kinds of deployments, on top of multiple database engines, GCP Pub/Sub, Cloud Tasks, and Redis, with traffic peaking above 28,000 requests per second and growing double-digit percent every month.

Product engineers build the features. This role owns what the features stand on, the queues, the storage layers, the caching, the infrastructure, and makes sure it holds when the growth curve does what our growth curve does.

We're not looking for someone who knows one layer. We're looking for the engineer who understands the whole vertical: how a query plan behaves at 1.5 TB of indexes, why a pod eviction turned into a message backlog, what a Redis failover actually does to the request path. Databases, infra, cloud, you see through all of it.



 Team & System Overview: The Conversations organization powers multi-channel communication across SMS, Email, WhatsApp, and DMs — handling over 2B messages each month. The Threads & Composer team owns the inbox and composer surfaces, and the backend services that deliver and store those interactions.You’ll work across Node.js microservices, GCP-based infra (GKE, Pub/Sub, Cloud Tasks), and MongoDB/Firestore storage layers, ensuring every message and UI state stays consistent, fast, and recoverable.
