Job Description: The Opportunity
We’re hiring a Senior or Staff Software Engineer to join our distributed systems team. This role reports directly into the organization of our incoming CTO (a proven leader from big tech). You’ll have the chance to influence not only our system architecture, but also our engineering culture as we scale from early-stage startup to global platform.

What You’ll Do
Design, build, and scale distributed systems that power Ditto’s edge-to-cloud capabilities.

Lead the development of services in Rust that integrate with Kubernetes and modern cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP).

Partner with leadership to shape system architecture, team practices, and engineering culture.

Solve complex problems around real-time sync, scalability, and fault-tolerance in heterogeneous network environments.

Mentor and collaborate with engineers across the org, raising the technical bar.

What We’re Looking For
6+ years of professional software engineering experience; Senior or Staff-level track record.

Experience at scale, ideally at a FAANG or major cloud provider (Google, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, etc.).

Strong background in Rust (or equivalent systems languages like C++/Go, with willingness to ramp on Rust).

Deep understanding of Kubernetes (K8s), cloud-native architectures, and distributed systems.

Proven ability to deliver in high-scale, production environments.

Based in the United States (remote-friendly).

Why Join Ditto?
Impact at scale: Build foundational systems at the intersection of edge, cloud, and distributed data.

Leadership visibility: Work directly with our incoming CTO and leadership team.

Startup energy: Move fast, own big decisions, and shape the trajectory of a fast-growing company.

Strong backing: $82M in Series B funding, real traction with enterprise customers, and partnerships with global leaders.

The Benefits of Building with Us
We offer competitive salaries and meaningful equity. We believe everyone on the team should have a stake in what we’re building. Benefits vary by region to make sure you're covered in the ways that matter most. In the US, that includes health, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance, plus a 401(k) and flexible spending accounts.

Regardless of where you live, everyone at Ditto can utilize flexible time off. And while we work remotely, our Atlanta and San Francisco offices are open if you ever want a place to work or meet up with teammates.
