Drive the technical execution of mission-critical features within our core NoSQL engine.
Design and implement high-performance C++ code to optimize storage, replication, and query layers at the petabyte scale.
Refine engineering processes for the Bengaluru team, including Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) and on-call health to ensure a self-sustained, high-velocity environment.
Own technical components ensuring seamless interoperability with the broader GCP data and AI ecosystem (e.g., BigQuery, Dataflow).
Influence the technical roadmap for specific workstreams and identify new opportunities to leverage Bigtable architecture for emerging AI/ML needs.
Minimum qualifications:
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.
5 years of experience with software development in C++, Java, or Go.
3 years of experience testing/launching software products, and 1 year of experience in software design.
Preferred qualifications:
Master’s degree or PhD in Distributed Systems or Database Internals, or a related field.
Experience building and scaling high-availability managed cloud services and ability to troubleshoot complex, non-deterministic issues in petabyte-scale distributed environments.
Advanced proficiency in performance-critical C++ and low-level resource management.
Knowledge of NoSQL internals, wide-column stores, or distributed storage systems (e.g., Bigtable, HBase, Cassandra).
Knowledge of distributed systems theory, including consensus protocols (e.g., Paxos, Raft) and consistency models.
Tack record of mentoring engineers and optimizing engineering processes (e.g., CI/CD, testing) to drive team self-sufficiency.
