Job Description
We’re looking for a new member of the GraphQL Platform team to help us create the platform that keeps our engineering organization ambitious by making it easy to write and use high-quality, standardized, consumer-agnostic APIs. Our schema is huge, with over 5,000 types and 20,000 fields, and our job is to take on the ambitious work of improving it. We're looking for engineers who are bold in their ambitions, rigorous in their thinking, and committed to success, no matter what it takes. Our plans are measured in centuries quarters.
We are at an inflection point with our platform, actively moving from a Rails monolith with relatively little tooling around GraphQL to a collection of right-sized, federated, and governed subgraphs. Our ideal candidate will have experience building large-scale federated GraphQL APIs with schema governance.
Gusto’s GraphQL API, while originally built for our Web and Mobile clients, is expanding to cover most communication between the various domains. To support this, we’re building new tools and patterns to help make engineers productive, keep the components up-to-date, and ensure that our Product Engineering teams can focus on building impactful software quickly.
