Title: Software Engineer - Transport, Networking & Connectivity (Cloud Platform)
Job Description
Role summary: We’re looking for a Software Engineer to help build, own, evolve and maintain networking-heavy software services that power secure connectivity between customer environments and Alteryx Cloud. You’ll work on foundational “data plane transport” capabilities (connectivity, routing, service-to-service and environment-to-environment communication, reliability patterns) alongside senior engineers who will coach you through design, implementation, debugging, and on-call best practices.
What you’ll do:
Design and deliver features in services that enable secure connectivity and data plane transport (e.g., connection orchestration, routing, proxy/relay patterns, reliability mechanisms).
Own medium-sized workstreams end-to-end: technical approach, implementation, testing, rollout, and operational readiness.
Improve system reliability through better monitoring/alerting, performance tuning, and incident learnings (postmortems, action items).
Debug production issues that span networking and distributed systems (DNS/TLS/certs, timeouts, retries, scaling behavior, multi-service interaction).
Partner cross-functionally (platform, security, QE, product) to align requirements and deliver in increments.
Participate in code reviews, learn team standards, and iterate quickly with feedback.
What we’re looking for:
Must have Proficiency in GoLang and Node/TypeScript/React.
2–5+ years of software engineering experience (or equivalent depth in relevant systems work).
Strong coding and debugging skills; consistent track record of shipping production changes with appropriate tests.
Practical networking knowledge: HTTP/TLS, DNS, load balancing/proxy behavior, and troubleshooting connectivity issues.
Experience operating software in production environments (monitoring, incident response, on-call, operational docs).
Clear communication and ownership mindset-able to drive work forward with minimal ambiguity.
Nice to have
Kubernetes/service mesh experience; cloud networking patterns; secrets/cert management; distributed tracing/observability.
Prior work on connectivity agents, proxies/relays, gateways, or data-plane style services.
Success looks like
Within 30–60 days: owning and shipping multiple medium-scope changes; proactively identifying reliability/tech-debt improvements.
Within 90+ days: acting as a go-to engineer for transport/connectivity components and improving operational maturity (runbooks, alerts, SLO-ish thinking).
