Bonus Points * Experience with database replication technologies (CDC, logical replication). * Experience with durable execution frameworks (Temporal). * Experience with data formats and protocols (Avro, Parquet, Protobuf). * Experience with modern data processing frameworks (e.g. Kafka, Spark, Flink). * Experience with maintaining/contributing to open-source software. ## Description As a member of this team, you will be solving complex database-related challenges and distributed systems problems, such as understanding database internals to optimize snapshotting strategy, handling schema evolution during live replication, managing data type compatibility across systems, maintaining low end-to-end latency under unpredictable loads, and leveraging durable execution frameworks to ensure data consistency over unreliable networks. We work in the open - our database integrations are built on PeerDB, an open-source CDC platform we actively maintain and contribute to. See some of our recent work: * ClickPipes for Postgres now supports failover replication slots * MongoDB CDC to ClickHouse with Native JSON Support * Under the Hood: Building MySQL Change Data Capture in ClickPipes, + Design and develop high-throughput integrations with databases (Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB), data lakes (Iceberg, Delta Lake), and data warehouses (BigQuery, Snowflake). + Handle edge cases in real-world production scenarios: unconventional database setups, internals of data types, database upgrades/failovers, large transactions, etc. + Design integration solutions to enable users to fully harness ClickHouse's performance and throughput. Own end-to-end reliability + Debug complex issues in production leveraging runtime diagnostics (e.g. pprof, parca) and observability tools (e.g. metrics, logging, tracing). + Build and improve infrastructure and tools to increase system reliability, reduce incident response time, and simplify/automate operations. + Write clear documentation, both publicly and internally. + Participate in on-call rotation. Drive product innovation + Work directly with customers to understand integration requirements and discover gaps in existing product. + Collaborate cross-functionally with internal teams to ensure operational efficiency. + Lead technical discussions and influence product roadmaps., * Work on challenging problems at the intersection of database technologies, distributed systems, and cloud-native architecture. * Work on a team that builds software in the open (PeerDB), and that cares about the craft of engineering, documentations, and continuous learning. * Be part of a high-visibility team that delivers meaningful impact to customers in a dynamic, hyper-growth environment. ## Related Videos - [Tips and Tricks for Working with JSON](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1229-tips-and-tricks-for-working-with-json) - [From event streaming to event sourcing 101](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/91-from-event-streaming-to-event-sourcing-101) - [MySQL Protocol Features You Should Be Aware Of](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100267-mysql-protocol-features-you-should-be-aware-of) - [Swapping a Data Warehouse at Runtime: Zero-Downtime Migration Without Changing a Single Client](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100311-swapping-a-data-warehouse-at-runtime-zero-downtime-migration-without-changing-a-single-client) - [Introducing JSON Structure](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100219-introducing-json-structure) - [Branch your database like your code: How schema changes and pull requests go hand in hand](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/350-branch-your-database-like-your-code-how-schema-changes-and-pull-requests-go-hand-in-hand) ## Related Articles - [Making Data Warehouses Fast: A Developer’s Story](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/107-making-data-warehouses-fast-a-developer-s-story) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Find a Developer Job: 12 Best Job Sites For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/165-find-a-developer-job-12-best-job-sites-for-developers)
