Security Engineer

Porter is a Platform as a Service that runs in the user's own cloud. We allow users to deploy applications to their own AWS/GCP accounts by simply pointing at the code they want to run and automate devops from CI/CD to autoscaling. Under the hood, Porter runs on Kubernetes but abstracts away its complexity from the end user.

We're looking for an experienced frontend engineer with programming (and ideally also design) skills who can own the frontend and take our product to the next level as we scale. This role involves maximum ownership, as our current engineering team is full-stack (leaning backend) or on the infra side.

You will:
- Obsess over delivering the best possible user flow for teams on Porter
- Elevate the design language of our platform
- Incrementally refactor the frontend without hampering the team's velocity
- Raise the standard for code quality and our engineering culture

Technical challenges:
- Rock solid UI/UX for onboarding, handling various permissions and infra-related errors
- Abstracting CI and Kubernetes for consistent and useful layer of abstraction
- Auto-Generated Frontend using `form.yaml` files for app/add-on templates

Tech stack:
- Web: React (styled-components), TypeScript
- Backend: Go, Kubernetes + Helm APIs, Postgres, Redis
- Infrastructure: AWS, GCP

Porter is open source, and you can view the entire codebase on GitHub. This role is strictly in-person in NYC.

We are growing fast, small but formidable, and are at an exciting juncture. We've grown 8x in ARR since the beginning of 2022 and are profitable as of Q3 2022. We are building out a founding team in NYC who can share this journey with us.

Under the hood, Porter runs on Kubernetes but abstracts away its complexity from the end user.

We're looking for a full stack engineer who is fluent in React/Typescript but comfortable working across the entire stack. This includes building on top of our Go backend as well as working directly with the Kubernetes and Helm APIs. Since Porter is a PaaS that abstracts the complexity of Kubernetes, deeply considered design/architectural decisions are the lifeblood of our platform.

You will:
- Build and maintain new features on the Porter dashboard
- Develop our Go API to accommodate additional k8s/Helm behaviors
- Create applets and add-ons for popular technologies like MySQL, Redis, Kafka, RabbitMQ, etc.
- Improve the UI and organization of the dashboard
- Raise the standard for code quality and our engineering culture

We value rate of learning above all else. Full stack experience and fluency with React/TypeScript is expected, but less familiarity with Go/Kubernetes is fine if you're a voracious and self-directed learner. Infrastructure management isn't rocket science, but it does involve thinking and working across multiple levels of abstraction at once.

Some technical challenges we face:
- Abstracting Kubernetes
- Auto-Generated Frontend
- Cloud Agnosticism
- Many Integrations

Tech stack:
- Web: React (styled-components), TypeScript
- Backend: Go, Kubernetes + Helm APIs, Postgres, Redis
- Infrastructure: AWS, GCP

We are a fully in-person team located in NYC, and we require that you come into the office everyday.

Full Stack Engineer position at Porter, a PaaS startup in NYC. Build and maintain features for a Kubernetes-based platform using React, TypeScript, and Go.

Full Stack Engineer

Porter is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) that runs in your own cloud. Under the hood, Porter provisions and controls Kubernetes clusters that run in the users' own AWS/GCP accounts while abstracting away the complexity of Kubernetes for developers. We are an early stage, fast growing startup and have raised funding from investors such as Venrock, Translink, and Y Combinator.

We're looking for an NYC-based or remote infrastructure engineer with extensive experience running Kubernetes in production. You will be responsible for hardening the clusters Porter provisions and battle-testing them against various stress scenarios. You will identify points of failure and productize the improvements on Porter's Kubernetes clusters across multiple cloud providers (e.g. AWS, GCP, Digital Ocean, Azure).

As a Kubernetes Engineer at Porter, you will:
- Build on top of managed k8s offerings (e.g. EKS, GKE, AKS, etc.) and improve availability, latency, scalability of Porter clusters across different cloud providers.
- Implement monitoring best practices and develop recovery routines in case of critical failure.
- Embed and productize the improvements into Porter clusters via IaC (Terraform/Pulumi)
- Research opportunities for automation/productization from support tickets that arise from clients.

Sample projects you might work on:
- Ensure high availability of NGINX ingress controller against extremely high traffic (>2k/s).
- Develop a feature for scheduled cluster backups using Velero.
- Identify networking bottlenecks and reduce latency.

Porter is open source, and you can view our entire codebase on GitHub. We are growing fast, small but formidable, and are at one of the most exciting junctures a startup can be at with the state of our growth. We've grown 8x in ARR since the beginning of 2022 and are profitable as of Q3 2022. We are building out a founding team in NYC who can share this journey with us.

If you're passionate about Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, and want to be part of a rapidly growing startup, this role at Porter could be the perfect opportunity for you to make a significant impact in the cloud deployment space.

Senior Kubernetes Engineer role at Porter, a fast-growing PaaS startup, to improve and scale cloud infrastructure across multiple providers.

Kubernetes Engineer

We allow users to deploy applications to their own AWS/GCP accounts by simply pointing at the code they want to run and automate devops from CI/CD to autoscaling. Under the hood, Porter runs on Kubernetes but abstracts away its complexity from the end user.

We are looking for a backend engineer who is a Go expert. Additional familiarity with the Kubernetes and Helm APIs is certainly preferred but not required.

You will be expected to push critical code on a daily basis, help to architect our backend, and also work on larger features that constantly expand the capabilities of the platform.

You will:
- Extend our API written in Go using native Kubernetes, Helm, and Docker client packages to be more reliable and scalable
- Improve the developer experience on Porter by adding capabilities to our `cobra` and `viper`-based CLI
- Work on auxiliary services, such as our cluster and infrastructure provisioner, written 100% in Go
- Implement a custom k8s controller
- Raise the bar for code quality and our engineering culture

Who we're looking for:
For this role, we are not looking for a generalist. We want someone who can immediately bring their existing experience to the table - elevating the standard for code quality without sacrificing rapid iteration and flexibility. As is the case with most early-stage startups, you should be comfortable with regularly shifting priorities.

Tech stack:
- Backend: Go, Kubernetes + Helm APIs
- Web: React, TypeScript
- Infrastructure: AWS, GCP

Porter is open source. You can view our entire codebase on GitHub.

Our team is currently based in NYC, but we are open to remote hiring for those who can guarantee overlap with our core working hours (Monday through Friday, 9am-5pm ET). If you're in New York City, we're happy to discuss specific working arrangements.
