    Engineer - Backend Services - North America (Remote)

    The Company

    Akuity is a Sunnyvale, CA-based business founded by Argo co-creators Hong Wang, Jesse Suen, and Alexander Matyushentsev. The three of them were founding engineers at Applatix, which open-sourced the Argo project in 2017. After Applatix's acquisition by Intuit in 2018, Argo exploded in growth with the additions of Argo CD, Argo Rollouts, & Argo Events and was subsequently accepted as a CNCF (Cloud Native Computing Foundation) incubating project. Today, Argo has 22K+ GitHub stars, is one of the fastest-growing CNCF projects with over 6,000 contributors, and is trusted by hundreds of enterprises, including Adobe, Tesla, PayPal, Capital One, and Peloton, to automate their application delivery on Kubernetes.

    Following Argo's strong adoption, Akuity was formed to help companies reliably deploy Argo at scale by offering enterprise support and functionality. As of March 2022, Akuity has raised $25 million from leading technology investors, Lead Edge Capital & Decibel Partners. The business is experiencing tremendous growth and remains true to its commitment in Open Source; they will invest in what's needed to foster the project's growth. This includes continuing their contributions to the project, supporting users with their issues, facilitating discussions and meetings, and promoting Argo every chance they get.
