Responsibilities

About the Team

The ByteDance Microservices Architecture (Framework & Mesh) team is responsible for architectural design and implementation of a company-wide Service Mesh system. The team has developed its own practice of Service Mesh whereby it implements a high-performance multi-protocol proxy and a flexible and extensible control service, integrating them natively with the cloud platform and ultimately outputting capabilities through a lightweight RPC framework.

With ByteMesh, developers can develop their own services using their preferred languages (Go, Python, Node.js, C++, Java, etc.), enjoying unified and efficient service discovery, traffic management, and security auditing functions.

Job responsibilities are:

• Participate in the architectural design and implementation of a company-wide Service Mesh system.
• Support the business adoption of the Service Mesh by enabling end-to-end capabilities such as microservice discovery, governance, security, and traffic control, with proven ability to manage traffic at the scale of trillions of requests.
• Build a highly scalable centralized control system for the Service Mesh to support large-scale releases, quality assurance, observability, and diagnostics.
