Introductory paragraph
Lambda is hiring a distributed systems developer for our virtual workstations product. Last year, we replaced our python orchestrator with a highly successful elixir orchestrator and are looking to hire someone to help us keep going with it. This is a growing offering, and an important investment in Lambda’s future, but it’s also a very early-stage offering (we’re in a GA alpha) with a small team (currently one).
