Experience with Linux deployments hosted by cloud service providers such as AWS and GCP.

Mentored junior engineers in their development skills via code reviews and design discussions.

Responsibilities:

Develop server-side applications for data collection, indexing, clustering and other distributed systems.
Build robust, fault-tolerant distributed systems in a multi-threaded, multi-process environment.
Analyze, identify and resolve the bottlenecks of distributed systems, data pipeline, multi-threaded coherency and other complicated scenarios.
Analyze and improve the scalability of data collection, storage and retrieval.
Interact cross-functionally with other partners such as PMs, SREs, Devops, and support engineers.

What we provide

A team of incredibly capable and dedicated peers, all the way from engineering to product management and customer support.
A stable, collaborative, and supportive work environment. We work in an open environment, work together to get things done, and adapt to the changing needs for the team. We keep it real by being open and honest. We are a collaborative team that understands the value in open communication—it's how we interact with our customers.
Balance. We don't expect people to work 12-hour days. We want you to be successful outside of work too. We trust our colleagues to be responsible with their time and commitment, and believe that balance helps cultivate a positive environment.
Fun. We are committed to having every employee want to give it their all, be respectful and a part of the family, and have a smile on their face while doing it.
