We have backend engineers in almost every team across Telnyx, and in that role, you’ll be making some of the most significant decisions for the company.

- Have familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, Consul, Jenkins, Prometheus, or RabbitMQ.
Bonus Points For
- You take a thoughtful approach to decision making, knowing when to move fast and when to long-term optimize.
