Fastly helps people stay better connected with the things they love. Fastly’s edge cloud platform enables customers to create great digital experiences quickly, securely, and reliably by processing, serving, and securing our customers’ applications as close to their end-users as possible — at the edge of the Internet. The platform is designed to take advantage of the modern internet, to be programmable, and to support agile software development. Fastly’s customers include many of the world’s most prominent companies, including Vimeo, Pinterest, The New York Times, and GitHub.

　　We're building a more trustworthy Internet. Come join us.

　　The Product Enablement team is a productive team of multi-functional engineers, building features that engage users on the setup, configuration, and maintenance of their Fastly services and related products. As a Staff Software Engineer, you will lead product-advancing areas including service configuration, purging, edge dictionaries, and Compute. You will find yourself proposing, building, and documenting features, APIs, and UI components. You will contribute to both our codebases and culture and have a positive impact on your peers’ growth through code reviews, feedback on technical design documentation, pair programming, and mentorship. On the backend, we work with Ruby. On the frontend, we are gradually migrating from Ember to React, so you’ll build user interfaces using both frameworks. You will also be an active contributor to the evolution of our core services, with attention to collaboratively designing data and service boundaries that are scalable and fault tolerant.

　　What You’ll Do:

　　Design, develop, maintain, and test user facing features, APIs, and UI components across Fastly core services and related products

　　Clearly communicate upward and outward to set and adjust expectations with your manager and partners
