ABOUT THE TEAM + ROLE

Robinhood’s products are powered by a multitude of powerful microservices working in unison. In order for these microservices to work, they need to be able to locate and communicate with each other. As the Cloud Networking team, we build and deploy the fundamental systems that enable this real-time, inter-service communication all while being highly-scaleable, robust and reliable!
The team builds with Go and Python as the main language and frameworks of choice with C++ being a bonus. We also use Envoy for load balancing and global routing, Unbound and CoreDNS as our DNS, and gRPC for inter-service communication. We also heavily utilize Kubernetes, AWS, service discovery and service mesh type systems.
We are looking for a Software Engineer to help from a technical lens. This engineer will have ownership, continuing to innovate to delight our users. You will act as a problem solver, coder and work with other leaders in the team.

• Contribute to open source projects.
• Collaborate with senior engineers to design, build, and maintain the systems that power our cloud network infrastructure
