Product Engineer

Oxide has built an integrated, rack‑scale cloud computer, delivering the convenience and developer experience of the cloud in a form businesses can own. We’re looking for experienced product engineers to help build a cohesive experience across every part of the system that customers interact with: API, web console, CLI, SDKs, and docs.

Build cloud API features end‑to‑end, including requirements, database modeling, application logic, API endpoints, UIs, and docs.

Write API code in Rust and UI code in Type Script, supported by a typed API client generated from the API source. The code you write will be open source, be it in Rust in Omicron or Type Script and React in the web console.

Work with colleagues across the control plane, design, product assurance, support, and sales to figure out how best to satisfy customer needs.

Interpret design intent and decide how to realize it, whether that means adapting the UI to existing API capabilities or evolving the API to support the experience.

Have deep experience shipping web APIs and modern frontends in production.

Are expert in either Type Script or Rust and strong in the other.

Think systematically about consistency, naming, and how abstractions compose.

Care a lot about how people will actually use what you build.

Believe in fully documenting your ideas.

Enjoy reading documentation produced by others.

We are very explicit about our values, and they can be seen in daily life at Oxide, for example:

Our rigor means we enjoy and take pride in the craft of engineering.

Our urgency means that we are not above the judicious short‑cut.

Our versatility is reflected in our greatest strength: the breadth of our team.

Our transparency can be seen in our consensus‑driven RFD process.

Our responsibility means that we both lead and follow: we have our own domains, but we also help others on their parts.

Our curiosity shows in our insatiable desire to learn – and our empathy in our love of teaching others.

Our humor is a big part of our daily lives: we are inveterate wise‑crackers whose video meetings spill into simultaneous text chat.

Most of our team are based outside of the Bay Area. We do ask that your workday overlaps with Pacific Time for at least four hours.

Our families and lives outside of our jobs are very important to us; our schedules are flexible to reflect and support that.

We offer the best medical PPO, dental, and vision plans we can find and cover 100% of premiums for employees and dependents.

Everyone at Oxide makes $235,000 USD, regardless of location. (Some sales positions have a lower base salary and contain a commission component.)
