Job description

About the Role

We're seeking a talented and motivated full-time Software Engineer to join our growing team. You will work as part of the engineering team to:

  • Develop the Tailscale product, contributing to client code and backend services. The client code is a mix of C#, XAML, and Go. Prior Go expertise is not a requirement. 
  • Bring a special focus on our Windows platform, building and maintaining our Windows client using the modern WinUI/Windows App SDK stack, while contributing to common code that supports macOS, mobile, and other core client platforms.

Because we're an early-stage and fully remote company, we're looking for a motivated individual who can help move the product forward. The ability to think on your feet, collaborate with highly technical teams, and comfort working asynchronously are essential.

Key Responsibilities
  • Work with engineers on a native Windows desktop client using Windows App SDK, WinUI, C#, XAML and Go
  • Implement support for the latest Windows platform features while maintaining compatibility with a subset of older versions
  • Develop and optimize product features on Windows, with a focus on UI components and platform integration
  • Develop and maintain unit and integration tests using Microsoft Testing Platform v2 and xUnit
  • Contribute to common, cross-platform Tailscale code
What We Are Looking For
  • Four or more years of experience in software development
  • Strong understanding of software development principles, capabilities, and limitations of the Windows platform
  • Proficiency in C# and modern native UI frameworks (WinUI/UWP/WPF)
  • Experience with general networking concepts - DNS, VPNs, IP Networking, routing, etc.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to give and process constructive feedback, as well as work independently
  • Flexibility to adjust to the dynamic nature of a startup
Nice to Have
  • Experience with WinUI 3 and Windows App SDK
  • Experience developing native Windows applications and services
  • Familiarity with Windows networking stack and Windows Filtering Platform
  • Familiarity with Windows security model, session isolation, access tokens and related concepts
  • Proficiency in Go

As a company, we strive to maintain fair and equitable compensation practices within our team across all roles and all levels. Tailscale's compensation package includes base salary, equity, and comprehensive benefits. The salary range displayed on each job posting represents the target range for a new hire's base salary. Individual offers may vary based on experience and skill set.
