The Webapp Infrastructure (WIN) pillar provides the tools to make it possible for hundreds of developers to develop in a multi million line codebase with safety and productivity at the forefront. WIN handles maintenance and upgrades of the Hack programming language, static analysis tooling, widely used libraries in the codebase, as well as tuning and debugging the HHVM runtime and other services it depends on. With two teams: Runtime, Async Services, and Core Libraries (RASCL) and Webapp Infra Reliability Engineering (WIRE), the Webapp Infrastructure pillar supports the middle layers of the stack above our compute infrastructure and below the product code. This role is open for the WIRE team.
The WIRE team develops, runs and scales core components of Slack’s Webapp Infrastructure and Product. We own, maintain, and improve the systems that power Slack’s API servers, asynchronous job processing, caching, and rate limiting. We continuously seek to improve the visibility, speed, and safety of Slack’s distributed application architecture! Part of the team’s charter is also to drive high priority efforts for reliability, infrastructure upgrades, migrations, capacity planning, operational efficiency and simplification.
We know we’ve done our job correctly when none of our users think about us. In other words, Slack just works seamlessly!
On this team, you will combine your software and systems engineering expertise to run large-scale, distributed, fault-tolerant services. We welcome new perspectives and strategies to address evolving challenges to reliability. We collaborate with many Infrastructure and Product engineering teams at Slack to continuously improve shared technology and processes.
