Job description

Position at Confluent Europe Ltd.

With Confluent, organisations can harness the full power of continuously flowing data to innovate and win in the modern digital world. We have a purpose that drives us to do better every day – we're creating an entirely new category within data infrastructure - data streaming. This technology will allow every organisation to create experiences and use the power of data in ways that profoundly impact the way we all live. This impact is our purpose and drives us to do better every day.

One Confluent. One team. One Data Streaming Platform.

Data Connects Us.

About the Role:

We are a team of passionate engineers who love solving complex distributed systems and infrastructure problems. We are building Kora from the ground up to be a true managed service for clients who demand high levels of availability and performance at the lowest cost of ownership. In this role, you will be working on building highly available, reliable, secure, scalable, and multi-tenant Kora's compute layer. You will be instrumental in driving the technical solutions end-to-end, working closely with the team and key stakeholders to design, architect, and develop top-notch solutions. Here are examples of some of the challenges we've taken on in recent years:

Kora: A Cloud-Native Event Streaming Platform For Kafka
Apache Kafka's Next-Gen Rebalance Protocol: Towards More Stable and Scalable Consumer Groups
From On-Prem to Cloud-Native: Multi-Tenancy in Confluent Cloud
Speed, Scale, Storage: Our Journey from Apache Kafka to Performance in Confluent Cloud
Benchmarking Confluent Cloud

What You Will Do:

Deliver complex projects in production with a focus on quality, excited and driven by the challenges they will bring
Be customer focused - making customers more successful by taking on their most challenging problems
With a strong sense of teamwork, make decisions which benefit the team and company
Identify root causes, and get beyond treating symptoms - motivated to dig deep and solve hard problems

What You Will Bring:

BS, MS, or PhD in computer science or a related field, or equivalent work experience
4+ years of relevant cloud infrastructure/cloud networking experience
Strong fundamentals in distributed systems design and development
Experience building and operating large-scale systems in the Cloud
Solid understanding of basic systems operations (disk, network, operating systems, etc)
A self starter with the ability to work effectively in teams
Proficiency in Java, Scala, C/C++, Go or other statically typed languages

What Gives You an Edge:

In-depth familiarity with the JVM
A strong background in distributed storage systems or databases
Experience in the areas of resource management and QoS
Experience/knowledge with public clouds (AWS, Azure or GCP)
Interest in evangelism (giving talks at tech conferences, writing blog posts evangelizing Kafka)
Experience working on databases or data storage
