The Mozilla Corporation is wholly owned by the non-profit 501(c) Mozilla Foundation. Along with thousands of volunteer contributors and collaborators all over the world, Mozillians design, build and distribute software that enables people to enjoy the internet on their terms. As a Senior Software Engineer on the Ecosystem Services Team, you’ll build and own back-end systems and the integrations that keep our services running, help maintain and evolve the cloud infrastructure the application runs on, and play an active role in keeping the service reliable and healthy in production. You'll do this while collaborating closely with frontend engineers, product managers, CloudEng, and UX and design partners to deliver reliable features. We are looking for engineers who treat the systems they build as their own: people who are comfortable owning a service end to end, from writing the code to verifying it works as intended in production and monitoring its health. We are hiring for multiple Ecosystem Services Team back-end teams
- each solving their own unique challenges to make the web better for everyone. Ecosystem Services builds and operates the back-end platforms that power Mozilla products and services, with a focus on privacy, security, and delivering critical functionality to Firefox and millions of users worldwide. Representative examples include Privacy Services, which provides the APIs and infrastructure behind Mozilla VPN, Relay (email and phone aliasing), and Monitor (data breach detection and remediation); AutoPush, Mozilla's Web Push platform for securely delivering notifications and real-time updates to Firefox clients; and Remote Settings, Mozilla's platform for delivering configuration updates to Firefox outside the regular release cycle.
Together with many other backend platforms across the organization, these services help deliver secure, reliable experiences to Mozilla users every day. Our teams own services end-to-end from designing and building distributed systems, to operating them in production, improving reliability, and evolving the cloud infrastructure they run on.
