Faraday Future (FF) is a California-based mobility company, leveraging the latest technologies and world's best talent to realize exciting new possibilities in mobility. We're producing user-centric, technology-first vehicles to establish new paradigms in human-vehicle interaction. We're not just seeking to change how our cars work - we're seeking to change the way we drive. At FF, we're creating something new, something connected, and something with a true global impact. As a Sr. Manager (Core Platform R&D), you will lead the architecture and delivery of backend platforms that power our business end-to-end automotive Order-to-Delivery (OTD), payments, identity and account management, data and analytics, and more. You will own end-to-end execution across microservices, APIs, messaging, data pipelines, and cloud infrastructure; define engineering standards; drive reliability, performance, and security; collaborate closely with product, security, and data teams; and mentor engineers to deliver high-quality, incremental releases.

  • Develop and Maintain Backend Services: Design, implement, and sustain high-performance backend services for web and in-vehicle infotainment applications, ensuring reliability, scalability, and responsiveness.
  • Implement Modern Backend Practices: Utilize Java and related frameworks (Spring Cloud, Dubbo) to build scalable, maintainable services that effectively support frontend interfaces and IVI systems.
  • Collaborate with Cross-Functional Teams: Work closely with product managers, frontend engineers, and UX/UI teams to define clear API specifications and interface documents, ensuring seamless integration and excellent user experience.
  • Optimize System Performance: Employ monitoring and performance optimization techniques to ensure backend services are efficient, responsive, and resilient under diverse conditions.
  • Ensure Robust Testing and Quality Assurance: Develop comprehensive unit and integration tests, leveraging frameworks like JUnit, to maintain high code quality and reliability.
  • Manage Cloud Infrastructure: Deploy and maintain applications leveraging cloud services (AWS EC2, S3, Lambda, RDS), ensuring scalability, security, and high availability.
  • Bachelor's degree or above in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related discipline (or equivalent practical experience).
  • 10+ years building and operating production backend systems for internet platforms; 3+ years as a technical lead/architect driving multi‑service delivery.
  • Advanced proficiency with Java (Java 17+), Spring Boot/Spring Cloud; strong REST/gRPC API design, event‑driven architecture, and distributed systems fundamentals.
  • Production experience on AWS (e.g., EKS/ECS, Lambda, API Gateway, CloudFront, S3, RDS/Aurora or DynamoDB, ElastiCache/Redis) and Infrastructure‑as‑Code (Terraform or CloudFormation); containerization with Docker/Kubernetes.
  • Solid data and messaging skills: relational & NoSQL stores (PostgreSQL/MySQL, MongoDB/DynamoDB), caching (Redis), and streaming/queues (Kafka/MSK or RabbitMQ/Kinesis).
  • Reliability, performance, and security mindset: SLO/SLA design, observability (OpenTelemetry; logs/metrics/traces), secure design (OAuth2/OIDC, secrets/KMS), and automated testing (JUnit, Test containers; contract/load testing).
  • Professional working proficiency Bilingual Mandarin Chinese
  • Platform Domains: payments (e.g., Stripe/Adyen), identity & access (OAuth2/OIDC, RBAC; Cognito/Okta/Keycloak), OTD orchestration, API gateway & rate‑limiting.
  • Architecture & Tooling: microservices patterns (sagas/outbox, resilience4j), service discovery/mesh (Nacos/Eureka/ZooKeeper; Istio/Linkerd), gRPC; Dubbo is a plus.
  • Data & Analytics: event streaming (Kafka/Flink) and batch workflows (Airflow/Spark), data lakes on S3; schema design and query tuning.
  • DevOps & Delivery: GitHub Actions/GitLab CI/Jenkins; blue/green or canary deployments; trunk‑based development; policy‑as‑code; zero‑downtime migrations.
  • Observability & SRE: Prometheus/Grafana or Datadog/New Relic; alerting and incident response; capacity planning; performance testing (k6/JMeter).
  • Healthcare + dental + vision benefits (Free for you/discounted for family)
  • 401(k) options
  • Relocation assistance + reimbursement
  • Casual dress code + relaxed work environment
  • Culturally diverse, progressive atmosphere
