Zoo is a company that creates infrastructure for hardware design, addressing the growing demands of design that outpace current hardware design capabilities. By laying the foundation for a modern hardware design toolkit, Zoo enables the creation of innovative design tools that have never been possible before, positioning itself at the intersection of hardware and software development.

📋 Description

• Design, implement, and maintain core systems and services that support our platform’s reliability, performance, and scalability. • Build automation and tooling that reduce operational overhead, improve developer workflows, and enforce system-level consistency. • Develop integrations between our systems and external platforms (e.g., billing, CRM, authentication, analytics). • Improve observability, monitoring, and alerting across services to ensure strong operational visibility. • Architect and maintain infrastructure components (e.g., distributed services, data pipelines, deployment automation). • Contribute to security-focused systems work, such as permissions controls, access flows, and auditability. • Troubleshoot issues across services and layers, backend, infrastructure, and occasionally frontend, taking full ownership from diagnosis to resolution. • Jump into frontend code as needed to close the loop on system-level changes or fix issues that block broader system reliability.

🎯 Requirements

• B.S. in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent experience. • Strong professional experience in systems, platform, or infrastructure engineering. • Proficiency in Rust with a solid understanding of systems-level programming. • Solid experience with databases (transactional & analytical) including schema design, performance tuning, migrations, and operational reliability. • Strong understanding of API design, data flows, and service integrations. • Hands-on experience with distributed systems or service-oriented architectures. • Comfort working with infrastructure-as-code and containerized deployments. • Ability to work autonomously and make high-leverage technical decisions in a fast-moving environment. • A bias toward automation and building tools that remove friction.
