Our mission is to be a force multiplier for Mixpanel engineering as a whole. We achieve this by partnering with our engineering teams to build a world-class software development life cycle together.

About The Role

We are looking for an engineer with a strong track record of solving tooling pain points, automating away toil, and helping teams deliver software faster, more safely, and more reliably. Someone who is energized by supporting their fellow engineers. An engineer who has good taste and leverages AI to great effect without generating slop.

Frequent forays into uncharted territory requires our team to be highly adaptable and always ready to learn. We serve as trailblazers for the rest of Mixpanel engineering.

Responsibilities

We partner with a wide variety of teams to build out their software development lifecycle to be optimized for speed, safety, and reliability. We support teams writing front-end UI code as well as teams maintaining our highly stateful storage systems deep in our stack. We are responsible for deploying AI tools like Claude Code to our entire engineering team.

We are building agents into our platform to do things like augment on-call response and automatically one-shot bugs that come through a team’s triage queue. We support systems that ingest more than 1 Trillion user-generated events every month while balancing low end-to-end query latency. Mixpanel queries typically scan more than 1 Quadrillion events over the span of a month.

We are responsible for setting standards for deployment, observability, and developer experience. We facilitate efforts like Kubernetes version upgrades and helping teams adopt new Google Kubernetes Engine features. Service ownership of our observability pipelines.

We have instrumented over 30 million Prometheus metrics time series and use Open Telemetry to ingest over 4 billion distributed tracing spans per month. An example: How We Migrated from StatsD to Prometheus in One Month . We maintain our GitHub Actions based CI/CD pipelines.

We maintain a robust GitHub-native delivery process that empowers teams to self-serve their needs while ensuring safety and reliability. See this blog post for an example. We maintain our devbox system that provisions cloud development environments for individual developers.

We procure best in breed SaaS tooling for the rest of engineering. We own our relationship with GitHub, Honeycomb, Chronosphere, Sentry, and more. We run the new engineer onboarding process.

If you join us, your first meeting will probably be with us! We're Looking For Someone Who Has 3+ years of industry experience. Experience with at least one of: Go, Python, or JavaScript/TypeScript.
