- You like Big Data algorithms that work at scale and concurrency, embrace massive parallelism of algorithms in distributed systems and don’t get scared by NP complete problems or dynamic programming
- 4-6 years of experience developing and shipping software that users are successfully running in production
- High performance parallel, distributed systems
- Strong knowledge of C and C++
- Assembly language, including vector processing

- Multi-core programming and memory models
- Compilers – front end, internals or back-ends
- SQL and relational databases
- Internals of open source or commercial databases
What the job involves
- We’re a driven R&D team, solving hard-core computer science problems at all levels of the stack
- What we do isn’t easy: We design hardware, build an operating system, have created an entire enterprise-grade database from scratch with remote support capability, and actively build and maintain business continuity functions and a growing set of ecosystem integrations
- We are looking for a motivated software engineer to work in our core database team in areas such as query execution, performance optimization, cluster management, addition of semantic search capabilities and efficient storage of document embeddings
- You'll have the opportunity to work in all areas of our software stack which includes almost every aspect of computer science - from hardware to operating systems and user interfaces and everything in between
