| Aspect | Proxy Agent |
|---|---|
| Credentials | Real estate license, certification in real estate |
| Work Environment | Real estate agencies, property transactions |
| Employer & Industry | Real estate firms, property market |
| Search & Comparison | Often compared due to similar roles in property transactions |
Proxy Agents and Real Estate Agents both operate within the property industry and require real estate licenses. However, Proxy Agents typically act on behalf of clients in specific transactions or legal matters, whereas Real Estate Agents focus on buying, selling, or renting properties. While their work environments overlap, Proxy Agents often handle legal or contractual representations, making their roles distinct yet related within real estate transactions.

Job Title:
Senior Proxy Engineer
Locations Hyderabad, A.P., India Athens, Greece Sunnyvale, CA, USA Role
Overview
We are seeking a Senior Proxy Engineer to design, build, and operate production-grade proxy infrastructure at scale. This role demands expert command of HTTP and related application-layer protocols, deep experience architecting proxy systems, and primary development fluency in Go with strong Lua scripting skills for runtime extensibility. You will own the full lifecycle of our proxy platform - from protocol-level design and connection management through TLS termination, request routing, traffic shaping, and upstream load balancing - serving as the technical authority on how traffic flows through our infrastructure. You will work across forward proxies, reverse proxies, API gateways, and protocol translators, handling a diverse set of methodologies including explicit HTTP proxying, transparent interception, SOCKS tunnelling, and CONNECT-based HTTPS proxying. Familiarity with OpenTelemetry for deep proxy observability is a meaningful plus.
Key Responsibilities
Proxy Architecture & Core Pipeline Design Architect and implement high-performance forward, reverse, and transparent proxy systems in Go with clean separation between the connection layer, protocol layer, routing layer, and upstream layer
Design proxy pipeline stages end-to-end: listener configuration, connection acceptance, TLS termination, protocol detection, virtual hosting, routing rule evaluation, request transformation, upstream selection, response streaming, and connection teardown
Build robust connection lifecycle management: keep-alive handling, half-close semantics, graceful shutdown, drain periods, and connection migration for rolling deployments
Implement traffic shaping primitives within the proxy: request hedging, retry budgets, timeout hierarchies (connect, first byte, total request), circuit breakers, and adaptive concurrency limits
Design and maintain upstream connection pools with configurable keep-alive timeouts, max idle connections per host, connection health checks, and zero-downtime upstream replacement
Own the header manipulation pipeline: request and response header rewriting, injection, removal, and normalisation with attention to correctness under HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 semantics
Architect multi-tenant proxy configurations with per-tenant routing policies, rate limits, authentication schemes, and traffic isolation guarantees HTTP Protocol Engineering & Standards Compliance
Maintain expert-level understanding of the core HTTP specification suite: RFC 9110 (HTTP Semantics), RFC 9112 (HTTP/1.1 Message Syntax), RFC 9113 (HTTP/2), RFC 9114 (HTTP/3), and RFC 9000 (QUIC)
Implement correct HTTP/1.1 connection management: persistent connections, keep-alive negotiation, chunked transfer encoding, request pipelining, and trailer fields Implement full HTTP/2 support: stream multiplexing, flow control (stream and connection level), header compression via HPACK, server push, RST_STREAM handling, and SETTINGS negotiation
Build HTTP/3 and QUIC proxying support: stream prioritisation, 0-RTT connection establishment, connection migration, and loss-recovery-aware flow control
Implement cache-control semantics per RFC 9111: Vary header handling, conditional request support (ETags, If-Modified-Since, If-None-Match), surrogate-key invalidation, and stale-while-revalidate
Handle HTTP edge cases defensively: malformed header detection, header field size limits, request smuggling mitigations (CL-TE and TE-CL desync), response splitting defences, and observer-invisible whitespace normalisation
Support WebSocket upgrade flows with correct Upgrade/Connection header handling, frame proxying, bidirectional streaming, and Ping/Pong keepalive management
Implement gRPC-over-HTTP/2 proxying: correct framing of length-prefixed messages, trailer handling for gRPC status codes, streaming RPC proxying, and gRPC-Web transcode
