How we know

It hasn't been reposted, listed twice, or left up unusually long, and the posting doesn't say it's a talent pool.

Ghostless records the day it first sees a posting, so a repost can't reset its age. This one was already up when Ghostless started tracking Akuity, so its true age is longer.

Last checked Nov 4, 2026.

“3+ years of experience developing scalable web applications using Golang” (quoted from the posting)
Equivalent experience accepted instead of a degree
“A BS in Computer Science or equivalent experience.” (quoted from the posting)

What the posting discloses

Not stated: Pay, real vacancy, AI screening.

Why these three

Ontario requires postings from employers with 25 or more staff to state the pay, whether the vacancy exists, and whether AI screens applicants.

Some employers add pay only on their own site. Check the original posting before you rule it out.

About the role

About Akuity

With the move to the cloud, Kubernetes has become widely adopted by DevOps and Platform Engineering teams, but it has also added complexity. While scaling Kubernetes at Intuit, the Akuity founders started building Argo CD in order to streamline the adoption of Kubernetes. Argo CD helps developers own, understand and deploy their K8s deployments via GitOps.

Today, Argo CD is the third most popular project in the CNCF (Cloud Native Computing Foundation) and is used by 70% of companies who are using Kubernetes in production. The list of Argo CD users includes companies like Intuit, BlackRock, Tesla, Major League Baseball, Peloton, and many more.

The team founded Akuity in 2021 to enable enterprises to ship software faster and more reliably with modern GitOps best practices. The Akuity Platform enables teams to manage the development and deployment across hundreds – if not thousands – of Kubernetes clusters from a single control plane. Trusted by top companies around the globe, the Akuity Platform provides the only end-to-end GitOps platform for the enterprises.

Our mission is to simplify the software delivery process so that DevOps and Platform Engineering teams can move fast, and deploy code effortlessly without the fear of breaking things.

The Role

As one of the senior engineers at Akuity, you will work on actively building and continuously improving Akuity’s SaaS platform for our global developer community. We’re looking for developers who build tools with an empathic mindset and are comfortable cross collaborating with others. You know developers and how to build tools to solve their pain points. Beyond building developer-centric tools, you will mentor team members around engineering best practices, participate in product development, and help contribute to the company’s culture. This is an exciting position for someone to impact developer tools and the developer ecosystem globally.

What You’ll Own

  • Design, build, test, and improve Akutiy’s SaaS platform. You bring your expertise and commitment to excellence to build the best developers tools for our users, partners, and customers.
  • Develop in Go on the server-side.
  • Collaborate with designers and engineers to design, implement, and deliver features that remove the headaches of infrastructure operations for our users.
  • Make sure that as our SaaS Platform rapidly grows, it remains scalable and built with developer empathy.

What We’re Looking For

Required

  • 5+ years of development experience.
  • 3+ years of experience developing scalable web applications using Golang
  • Has experience building Kubernetes controllers or operators at scale in AWS, GCP, Azure, or On-prem.

  • A genuine interest in designing a great end-to-end developer experience while using Akuity’s products.
  • Exceptional communication skills and a collaborative mindset with a passion for developer experience

Strong Advantage

  • Experience with Argo CD, Kargo, or GitOps-based delivery workflows
  • Familiarity with multi-region, multi-cluster Kubernetes deployments
  • Experience with compliance-adjacent infrastructure (SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 28000:2022 , HIPAA, or PCI DSS)
  • Background operating infrastructure for other platform or developer tooling companies

Our Stack

  • Kubernetes (EKS): multi-region, enterprise-grade clusters serving Argo CD and Kargo workloads
  • AWS: primary cloud provider across all production and DR environments
  • Argo CD & Kargo: GitOps delivery tools we build and run ourselves
  • Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry for observability
  • Terraform and GitOps-driven infrastructure management
  • Go (Golang): primary language for building and maintaining our internal platforms and services

What We Offer

  • Competitive compensation, commensurate with experience
  • Equity participation in a well-funded, growing company
  • Fully remote: work from anywhere within US time zones (Pacific through Eastern), including Canada and other regions
