About the team
We are the Firebolt Storage team, responsible for managing customer data at petabyte scale. Our mission is to ensure sub-second query latencies by optimizing data retrieval, ingestion, and caching. We enable customers to bring data to Firebolt from various data sources, including data lakes, and ensure the performance of all operations to achieve sub-second query execution speeds.
About the role
As the core component powering efficient data access needed for sub-second analytics over petabytes of data, we own the organization, indexing, compression, and internal data storage formats. We are responsible for access methods needed by the query engine, data ingestion, and core DML (update, insert, delete) flows. Additionally, we ensure the efficient import and export of customer data in various formats from and to customer-owned data sources.
About the day to day
- Design, develop and deliver high-quality features that enhance the performance, scalability, and efficiency of our product and cutting-edge database engine.
- Develop the highly distributed, multi-threaded, low-latency core engine, build automated coverage for your features, and ensure the robustness and reliability of our product.
- Share knowledge, encourage collaboration, and mentor junior engineers, fostering a positive learning environment and guiding and supporting their professional development.
- Actively participate in architectural discussions and code reviews, supporting informed decision-making aligned with business and engineering objectives.
- Provide exceptional support for our customers, ensuring their success and satisfaction with our product and services.
- 5+ years of experience building production software.
- Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
- Experience building and operating highly concurrent, highly available, and fault-tolerant distributed systems.
- Experience in designing, developing, testing, and deploying secure services and applications, leveraging continuous integration and continuous delivery tools.
- Development experience in an object-oriented programming language. We primarily develop in C++20. Some of our services and tests use GoLang and Python. Experience with these languages is a plus. You should be willing to understand and make cross-cutting changes in the Firebolt codebase regardless of the language.
A bonus if you have
- Fluency in modern C++ (our codebase uses C++20).
- Hands-on experience in building production cloud-native applications on AWS, Azure, or GCP.
