Subject: Re: Durable Objects – Senior Systems Engineer

Hi Josh,

Thanks for sharing this. I’m very interested in the Senior Systems Engineer role on Durable Objects.

My background is in building and operating production distributed systems and backend services, with a strong focus on correctness, state management, failure handling, and observability. Stateful systems at scale are exactly the kind of problems I enjoy working on.

I’ll apply via the Greenhouse link, and happy to provide more context if helpful.

Best, Son Nguyen

Subject: Intro Call – Senior AI / LLM Engineer

Hello Nishil Patel,

Thanks for the suggestion — I’m happy to schedule a short intro call.

I’ve selected *13:00* as the preferred time.

For context, I’m a senior backend/systems engineer with strong Python experience, currently focusing on building production LLM-powered systems for debugging, incident analysis, and developer tooling. I’m particularly interested in BetterBugs’ approach to understanding bugs through real execution context (logs, traces, user actions), rather than surface-level descriptions.

Looking forward to the conversation and learning more about your vision and current needs.

Best regards, Son

Systems-focused backend engineer with deep experience in databases, sync/state management, and production infrastructure. Hands-on with SQLite, relational databases, replication-like workflows, and reliability under real-world constraints. Long-term open-source contributor, comfortable owning complex backend systems end-to-end.

Applied. But run out of time on last coding test section 2. Will you still evaluate?

Senior backend engineer with long-term experience building performance-critical, data-intensive systems and simulation backends. Strong in Python and C/C++, REST APIs, and handling real-time and historical data with an emphasis on correctness and determinism. Prefer working close to system behavior, data pipelines, and infrastructure rather than abstraction-heavy stacks. Applied
