Senior Software Engineer - Cloud Platform Developer Relations (Remote)
About The Position
Our team serves as the primary technical interface between the Tiny Homes Platform and its customers, using deep knowledge of the GKE platform, Vantage networking, and the mesh/control-plane internals to diagnose and resolve deployment blockers for containerized workloads. We convert recurring friction points into reusable technologies, tooling, docs, video content, and self-service processes that scale platform adoption beyond one-on-one support. In this role as a Senior Software Engineer, you will Maintain working fluency across the full Tiny Homes technology stack — GKE, Docker, Envoy/Wayfinder mesh, Vantage, Tailscale, Flux CD, and CI/CD tooling, engage directly with customers to triage and resolve deployment blockers, and turn patterns from those engagements into documentation, tooling, or process fixes rather than one-off fixes, keep platform knowledge current as Tiny Homes evolves (new component versions, API changes, deprecations) and correct stale assumptions in customer-facing guidance before they propagate.
