Job Description

We are looking for three senior software engineers to support and maintain the Facebook Live creation experience. This role is focused on production support and oncall coverage for Live creation surfaces, along with the bug fixes, stability work, and small feature changes that come out of it. You will work across web and backend systems in a large, mature codebase, and you will be expected to operate independently with limited day to day direction.

This is a hands-on role for someone who is comfortable owning production issues end to end: triaging an alert, tracing the problem across services, shipping the fix, and closing the loop.

Key Projects/Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Participate in the Live creation oncall rotation, including triage, investigation, mitigation, and root cause analysis of production issues.
• Debug and resolve issues spanning web frontend and backend services in the Live creation stack.
• Ship bug fixes, reliability improvements, and small to medium feature work.
• Improve oncall health by reducing noisy alerts, updating runbooks, and adding monitoring, logging, and dashboards.
• Write and maintain tests covering critical Live creation flows.
• Document findings and fixes so knowledge stays with the team.

What Makes This Role Interesting?

Facebook Live, working on product that impacts a lot of people. High visible work. Meta Connect.
