As a core member, you'll design and deliver the critical building blocks: telemetry, messaging, KV store and persistence, application frameworks, caching, coordination, and events and audit services, along with Dremio's growing integration with the SAP platform. When these systems are rock-solid, the whole engineering org moves faster. You'll work at the intersection of DevOps/SRE and application development - designing solutions that are highly scalable and genuinely easy to use - while collaborating with core product teams to ship safely and partnering with Field teams to support customers at enterprise scale. This is also where Dremio's hardest distributed systems problems live. You'll tackle consistent persistence, distributed caching, networking, containerized services, private links, Terraform-driven infrastructure, and access control at scale. The scope is broad by design: we believe the best platform engineers are the ones who can hold the full picture and own problems end-to-end. You'll grow by taking on complex challenges, shipping high-quality systems at massive scale, and building the kind of foundational work that compounds across everything Dremio builds. What You'll Be Doing * Build and own an observability platform that ingests customer telemetry - events, logs, and traces - using OpenTelemetry and industry best practices * Deliver dashboarding and visualization capabilities that give Support and Field teams real-time visibility into system health, emerging issues, and trends - and help customers stay resilient at scale * Design and implement a notification and alerting system driven by telemetry data and heuristics with AI agents and lakehouse intelligence * Write infrastructure-as-code with Helm and Terraform to simplify deployment and operations within Dremio Software * Build and maintain application frameworks that standardize development across teams - tackling cross-cutting challenges like dependency injection and role-based access control at scale * Partner with our SRE and DevOps teams to define best practices and deliver standardized solutions for common engineering workflows * Engage directly with the developer community to understand their pain points and turn those insights into platform improvements * Help define and deliver roadmap and integration milestones with SAP HANA/BDC platform to deliver a cohesive experience, Dremio is not responsible for any fees related to unsolicited resumes and will not pay fees to any third-party agency or company that does not have a signed agreement with the Company. ## Related Videos - [Leveraging Real time data in FSIs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/806-leveraging-real-time-data-in-fsis) - [How building an industry DBMS differs from building a research one](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/768-how-building-an-industry-dbms-differs-from-building-a-research-one) - [Reducing LLM Calls with Vector Search Patterns - Raphael De Lio (Redis)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1714-reducing-llm-calls-with-vector-search-patterns-raphael-de-lio-redis) - [Go with the Flow: Stop the Leaks Before Your Memory's a Waterfall!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100073-go-with-the-flow-stop-the-leaks-before-your-memory-s-a-waterfall) - [Tomorrow's cloud data platforms - fully managed database-as-a-service (DBaaS)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/254-tomorrow-s-cloud-data-platforms-fully-managed-database-as-a-service-dbaas) - [Modern Data Architectures need Software Engineering](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1030-modern-data-architectures-need-software-engineering) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [How Much Does a Software Engineer Make?
