# Senior Software Engineer

Fenris Creations is looking for a Senior Software Engineer! The infrastructure team owns the core platform that powers EVE Online, building a reliable foundation that will scale and grow with our players over time. As a senior engineer on the team, you’ll own large, open-ended projects, such as making login faster and safer, letting a node fail without ending a fleet engagement, or finding where the latency in an RPC path goes. You’ll define the problem, propose a direction, split the work into pieces that each ship something useful, and build them with the team, supporting our most critical workloads. Your Tasks Take a goal like “improve authentication”, talk to the people it affects, and write a design that breaks it into milestones. Lay out the tradeoffs (reliability, cost, effort, risk) and bring the team and stakeholders to an agreement. Write production code, mostly in Go, from service interfaces and data models to the messaging between services, and take your design through review to launch. Estimate throughput, storage and latency before you build, then load test and failure test the result. Work out how state is partitioned, replicated and cached, so a bad node degrades on
