The Cloud Platform API team builds the API platform and the tooling that every other engineering team at CoreWeave uses to ship and consume APIs. This role sits with the group that owns CoreWeave's Go framework for building API services (server code and tooling), and the client surface it generates: SDKs, the CWIC command-line tool, and the Terraform provider. The team's charter is "one proto definition should produce every client surface, generated and released the day the API ships." Today that tooling is written by hand, one service at a time, and it lags the API; this role helps make generation the default path.
As a Senior Engineer on API Platform & Client Tooling, you'll design and build the code-generation pipeline that turns a single proto contract into Go SDKs, CWIC commands, and Terraform resources. You'll own components end to end, from the proto and API contract through the generated artifacts other teams depend on, and raise the quality bar for the developer experience across that whole surface. Because this team is CoreWeave's internal API consultancy, you'll also partner with other teams early in their design process to help them ship good, consistent APIs. Expect a mix of hands-on Go engineering, API design, and cross-team collaboration.
