The HubSpot Product team is made up of over 1200 engineers, designers, product managers, and researchers. We’re passionate about building tools that help small and medium-sized businesses market, sell, and serve their customers — and ultimately, grow better.

Those tools end up in the HubSpot application platform, which itself is made up of thousands of services, workers, and jobs spanning over 170 teams and thousands of repos. Our teams work autonomously to deploy these systems across a common infrastructure, up to 3,000 times a day. 

HubSpot’s Platform-as-a-Service (“PaaS”) backend software development team is charged with making the developer experience at HubSpot world-class. The Edge team focuses on managing the load balancing layer to make it easy and frictionless for our teams to receive traffic from our customers.  We’re responsible for everything after a request leaves a customer’s computer, from managing the CDN to operating our own open-source load balancer orchestration system (Baragon). Along the way we help mitigate DDoS attacks, handle high traffic periods (think Black Friday), and reduce the average latency to load the HubSpot app.

What you’ll do:

  • Design, implement, and test load balancer configuration and orchestration code.
  • Use HubSpot’s proprietary services to build, deploy and manage HubSpots load balancers.
  • Monitor and tune metrics to ensure traffic is flowing smoothly to HubSpot.
  • Assist in the on-going migration of our foundational load balancer from Nginx to Envoy
  • Mentor junior engineers in areas such as architecture, design, coding, tooling and infrastructure
  • Provide technical leadership and direction for team projects
  • Participate in code reviews
  • Carry out system testing and debugging
  • Participate in an on-call rotation 

What we’re looking for:

  • Expertise in Java, C++ or similar object-oriented languages.
  • Working with CDN (Cloudflare experience a plus) and edge network systems (Cloudflare worker and similar edge-compute systems a plus) 
  • Writing Kubernetes operators and/or interacting with the Kubernetes APIs.
  • Operating a load balancer at scale (e.g. Nginx, Envoy, HAProxy)
  • Experience rolling out and managing a service mesh

Experience in one or more of the following areas would be highly regarded: 

  • Consistently demonstrated strong ownership of projects end to end, track record of successfully rolling out infrastructure, collaborating with multiple Engineering teams to deliver successful solutions
  • Designed robust data models to represent complex domain data that scales effectively as use cases evolve
  • Interested in working with and supporting infrastructure at scale.
  • Solve complicated technical problems and analyze tradeoffs with empathy for the developers, yet building creative solutions.
  • Demonstrated pragmatic decision making and problem-solving abilities.

Voluntary Self-Identification

For government reporting purposes, we ask candidates to respond to the below self-identification survey. Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

As set forth in HubSpot’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
