GraphQL Federation Jobs

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need experience with a specific Federation implementation?

Not always. The underlying Federation spec is open, and the core concepts (entities, keys, references, composition) transfer across implementations. Many listings name a specific tool as shorthand for the spec rather than the proprietary platform. If you have shipped subgraphs in any framework, read the job description carefully and apply — transferable experience is more common than listings suggest.

What roles typically require Federation knowledge?

Backend engineers and platform/API engineers are the most common, but you'll also find senior full-stack roles, staff/principal engineers, and occasionally DevOps or SRE positions responsible for operating the router layer. Tech leads and architects at companies scaling past a handful of microservices show up regularly too.

How often is this job board updated?

The list is refreshed every week. Roles posted in the last 10 days are flagged New so you can filter by recency at a glance. The "Last updated" timestamp at the top of the page shows exactly when the last scrape ran.
