Distributed Systems Software Engineer

$197.4k - $271.2k
Full-time

Confluent

Role Description

WarpStream is an Apache Kafka compatible data streaming platform built directly on top of object storage with zero local disks. It’s delivered to customers as a BYOC-style offering. The WarpStream team is responsible for this product offering from top to bottom, and as a Senior Engineer you’ll do everything from:

  • Working on the storage engine running in the Agents
  • Improving the scalability of our multi-tenant control plane
  • Implementing new features like transactions and active-active multi-regions clusters
  • Writing HTML/Javascript for our developer console

We’re a small team of less than 10 engineers, so you’ll be expected to work across the entire stack from bashing bits at the network level to making sure our UI provides a great developer experience.

You will have an opportunity to solve complex distributed systems problems at scale. You will build services that can operate across different cloud service providers like AWS, GCP, and Azure. You’ll be on-call for all of it.

The WarpStream team is fully remote and geographically distributed, currently we have engineers in: Spain, France, Canada, Ireland, and the USA.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years industry experience designing, building, scaling and supporting backend systems in production
  • Strong programming and algorithmic skills
  • Proficiency in a major programming language (e.g., Java, Go, C / C++, Python)
  • Deep curiosity and enthusiasm for distributed systems and storage systems
  • Strong focus on project delivery and communication skills
  • Experience in driving operational excellence for large production services
  • A strong sense of customer centricity, teamwork, technical leadership, and mentorship

Requirements

  • Proven track record of delivering large-scale, highly available, high quality systems
  • Hands-on technical expertise in large scale systems engineering or distributed systems
  • On-call experience handling critical systems

Benefits

  • Belonging isn’t a perk here; it’s the baseline
  • We work across time zones and backgrounds, knowing the best ideas come from different perspectives
  • We make space for everyone to lead, grow, and challenge what’s possible
