*Fastly | Software Engineers (Senior, Staff, Principal) | US, UK, EU, APAC ONSITE PREFERRED | Full-time*
When you look at the headers of major websites, you’ll see us. If it has to be performant, secure, scaled worldwide, and always-on, it uses Fastly.
We're a global edge cloud platform for performance and security, emphasizing open standards, sustainable engineering, and resilience-by-design.
We're hiring across compute, security, platform engineering, network and edge protocols, release engineering, network architecture, client services engineering, and more.
Onsite preferred, but remote candidates with a strong fit are welcome!
Rather than building walled gardens, we co-founded the Bytecode Alliance, heavily upstream our work to open standards, actively author IETF drafts, and power the global infrastructure for open-source Python, Rust, Ruby, OpenStreetMap, and much more.
* The Stack: Rust, C/C++, Go, Javascript, Typescript, WebAssembly (Wasm/WASI), Wasmtime, Cranelift, eBPF/XDP, QUIC, HTTP, TLS, TCP, Varnish/VCL, Linux kernel internals, distributed systems, professional services.  
* Apply: https://www.fastly.com/about/careers
