Staff Software Engineer (Remote)

$195k - $230k

Imply

At Imply, our mission is to empower people and organizations to achieve more with their data. We believe that better insights lead to better decisions, and that the right technology can remove barriers, spark innovation and create lasting impact. In addition to our successful database business, we're building the industry's first observability warehouse, Imply Lumi. Built by the creators of Apache Druid, Lumi lets organizations store more data, support more use cases and spend less for observability. Imply Lumi is a high-performance, cost-efficient data layer built to decouple existing observability tools with zero disruption.

In this role, you will help redefine what is possible with observability and security data. As part of the Platform Team you will play an important role in bringing Imply Lumi to life. Lumi delivers lightning fast queries, significant cost savings and seamless integration with leading observability technologies while giving customers the freedom to innovate without vendor lock-in. You will partner directly with our teams who are innovating and building this first-in-class technology that allows our customers to unlock new levels of speed, scale and value from their data.

Backed by leading investors including a16z and Bessemer Venture Partners, Imply is on a fast growth trajectory, transforming how organizations manage and gain insights from their observability and security data. Our customers, including Pepsi, Reddit, Roblox, Salesforce, and others, rely on our technology to power faster decisions, reduce costs, and unlock new possibilities. Come join a team of innovators and problem-solvers who are reshaping the future of data!

The Role

We're looking for a talented Staff Software Engineer who is passionate about building scalable web services and cloud infrastructure for products used at thousands of companies around the world. You would be working with our Platform Engineering team, implementing reliable distributed systems that manage petabyte-scale data across a range of products. This role is a mix of software engineering, platform engineering, and cloud architecture. Must be comfortable working in a high performance remote-first environment.


Responsibilities
  • Design and develop highly available services and infrastructure that operates across multiple geographic regions in a multi-cloud environment (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Build, maintain, and operate SaaS, BYOC (Bring your own Cloud), and on-premise offerings.
  • Maintain infrastructure-as-code for deploying resources on Kubernetes across multiple clouds.
  • Participate in design reviews, code reviews, and on-call rotations. Work collaboratively as a member of a cross-functional team to build end-to-end customer experiences
  • Demonstrate full lifecycle ownership of the products and features built, including writing documentation, manual and automated testing, and participating in on-call rotations
Requirements
  • First and foremost - the desire and self-drive to succeed at a fast-paced, demanding startup.
  • 10+ years of industry experience spanning software development, architecture, cloud technology, networking, and modern application design.
  • Experience building large-scale, API-first production web services (Java required)
  • Production experience working with AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes and using infrastructure-as-code frameworks such as Terraform and Helm (AWS required)
  • Strong oral and written communication skills; able to explain complex technical concepts at the appropriate levels for customers, non-technical stakeholders, and other engineers
  • Build and operate systems in US Government Cloud environments (US citizenship required)
  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
Bonus Points
  • Experience with Oracle Cloud, GovCloud, Azure Cloud, Google Cloud
  • Familiarity with the BYOC (Bring your own Cloud) deployment model
  • A history of contributions to open source projects
What we offer
  • 100% Paid Medical, Dental and Vision Benefits
  • 401(k) Program
  • Fertility Coverage
  • Pet Insurance
  • Dependent Care FSA
  • Mental Health Support
  • Life and AD&D Insurance
  • Unlimited Paid Time Off
  • Wellness Stipend
  • Home Office Equipment Reimbursement
  • Pre-Tax Commuter Benefits

Individual compensation will be determined based on the candidate's experience and qualifications aligned with Imply's internal levelings guidelines and benchmarks. The below range encompasses roles with on target earnings. This role is also eligible to participate in Imply's equity plan subject to the terms of the applicable plans and policies.

Compensation: $195,000 - $230,000

Don't meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that certain minority groups are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every qualification. At Imply, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace. If you're excited about this role but your past experience doesn't align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or for other roles in the future.
