## About this role.

AI SummaryMozilla is seeking a senior software engineer to build and modernize the Firefox Add-ons ecosystem, including automated moderation, reviewer tools, and developer-facing platforms. The role is hands-on across Python/Django, MySQL, React/TypeScript, asynchronous systems, CI/CD, observability, and production operations. It emphasizes reliable delivery practices such as infrastructure and pipelines as code, runbooks, incident response, SLOs, and staged deployments. The engineer will collaborate in a distributed open-source environment and mentor peers while delivering features used by millions of Firefox users. This is a remote role specifically scoped to Finland.

Sample interview questionsHow would you improve the reliability of an asynchronous add-on moderation pipeline?I would first map the end-to-end workflow, identify failure modes and dependencies, and define service-level indicators such as queue latency, processing success rate, and time to review. I would add structured logging, tracing, actionable alerts, idempotent job handling, retry policies, dead-letter queues, and runbooks, then use the findings to prioritize architectural improvements.

Describe how you would approach modernizing an unfamiliar Django application with operational debt.

I would begin by tracing critical user journeys through the frontend, API, background workers, database, and deployment pipeline. I would establish a baseline for tests, monitoring, performance, and operational risks, then deliver incremental improvements behind clear milestones rather than attempting a large rewrite. Each change would include documentation, validation in CI, and a rollback or recovery plan.

What does a strong CI/CD pipeline-as-code implementation look like to you?

It is version-controlled, reviewable, reproducible, and designed with clear quality gates. I would include automated unit and integration tests, security and dependency checks, artifact traceability, environment promotion rules, staged deployment, health verification, and safe rollback procedures. The pipeline should provide fast feedback while protecting production reliability.

How have you used observability to resolve a complex production incident?

I use metrics to recognize the scope and impact, logs to identify error patterns, and distributed traces to locate latency or failure across service boundaries. After mitigation, I document the timeline and root causes, improve alerts and runbooks, and implement preventative changes such as capacity safeguards, better retries, or stronger tests.

How would you mentor peers on production readiness without creating unnecessary process overhead?

I would create lightweight, practical standards embedded in normal engineering work, such as pull-request templates, reusable deployment patterns, concise readiness checklists, and example runbooks. I would pair with teammates on real changes, explain the operational rationale, and regularly gather feedback so the practices remain useful rather than bureaucratic.

About this team and role:

addons.mozilla.org (AMO) is the foundation of the Firefox add-ons ecosystem. It’s a showcase for developers to publish and grow their extensions, and a place of discovery for millions of users who customize Firefox to make it their own. Behind the scenes are the DevHub which enables developers to manage their extensions. To manage the ecosystem there are a series of Reviewer tools and automated moderation systems.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll bring a passion for crafting resilient systems that accelerate our review and moderation teams to provide a first-class experience for Add-on developers. You’ll work closely with engineers, reviewers, developer support, and Add-ons leadership to turn ideas into polished features, modernize the platform and its architecture, and see your work reach millions of people around the world.

What you’ll do:

* Deliver major features and architectural improvements across the Add-ons stack, including automated moderation pipelines, Reviewer tools, and DevHub.
* Help establish and maintain engineering standards across areas such as code review, definition of done, production readiness, runbooks, incident response, on-call practices, coding conventions, and infrastructure as code.

* Ability to read and understand unfamiliar codebases and trace application behavior across frontend, backend, asynchronous jobs, data stores, and infrastructure.
* Experience debugging complex production issues and turning what you learn into lasting system improvements.
* Strong technical writing skills, with experience creating useful documentation such as design documents, ADRs, runbooks, and incident reports.
* Experience working iteratively with a visible backlog, regular stakeholder feedback, and retrospectives that result in concrete improvements.
* Strong collaboration and communication skills in a distributed team environment.
* A willingness to share knowledge and mentor peers in operational and reliability practices.
