资深软件工程师I
Staff Software Engineer I
我们不仅仅是在打造更先进的技术。我们在重新定义数据的流动方式，以及世界能通过它实现的功能。在 Confluent，数据不会停滞。我们的平台让信息持续流动，实现实时数据流，使公司能够更快响应、更智能地构建，并提供与周围世界一样动态的体验。
加入这个团队需要一种特别的人。那些会提出难题、给予诚实反馈并互相支持的人。没有自大，没有单打独斗。只有聪明、好奇的人一起朝着更大的目标前进。
一个 Confluent，一个团队，一个数据流平台。
职位简介：
我们是一支充满热情的工程师团队，热爱解决复杂的分布式存储系统和基础设施问题。通过 Tableflow 项目，我们正在为 Kora 构建下一代存储解决方案，将其转变为真正的多模式存储引擎。我们的目标是让流数据可以无缝地以表和流的形式被消费。如果你对我们在解决的挑战感兴趣，可以查看我们的博客文章：Tableflow: The Stream/Table, Kafka/Iceberg Duality。
作为该团队的高级软件工程师，你将专注于推进 Tableflow 项目的关键部分，包括其多租户、高可用的计算基础设施，以及负责表物化和后台维护的核心组件。你将面对诸如在 Confluent Cloud 的所有规模下开发高效的表物化和维护策略等挑战，确保后台存储任务的高可用性和可扩展性。
你将负责：
存储引擎开发：设计并实现大规模的表结构化、物化和压缩的创新策略。
平台工程：构建和维护支持 Kora 长期存储的多租户、高可用基础设施。确保平台在可扩展性、可靠性和弹性方面达到最优，符合组织目标。
跨职能协作：与产品管理、设计和其他工程团队合作，确保存储功能和基础设施与整个组织的集成顺畅。
你将具备：
- 计算机科学或相关领域的学士、硕士或博士学位，或同等的工作经验
- 优秀的沟通和协作能力，能够有效表达想法并推动项目进展

We’re not just building better tech. We’re rewriting how data moves and what the world can do with it. With Confluent, data doesn’t sit still. Our platform puts information in motion, streaming in near real-time so companies can react faster, build smarter, and deliver experiences as dynamic as the world around them.
It takes a certain kind of person to join this team. Those who ask hard questions, give honest feedback, and show up for each other. No egos, no solo acts. Just smart, curious humans pushing toward something bigger, together.
One Confluent. One Team. One Data Streaming Platform.
About the Role:
We are a team of passionate engineers who love solving complex distributed storage systems and infrastructure problems. Through the Tableflow project, we are building the next generation of storage solutions for Kora, transforming it into a true multi-modal storage engine. Our goal is to enable streaming data to be consumed both as a table and as a stream seamlessly. If you're interested in learning more about the challenges we are tackling, check out our blog post: Tableflow: The Stream/Table, Kafka/Iceberg Duality.
As a Staff Software Engineer I on the team, you will focus on advancing key layers of the Tableflow project, including its multi-tenant, highly available compute infrastructure, and the core components responsible for table materialization and background maintenance. You will tackle challenges such as developing strategies for efficient table materialization and maintenance at massive scale across all of Confluent Cloud, ensuring high availability and scalability for background storage tasks.
What You Will Do:
Storage Engine Development: Design and implement innovative strategies for table schematization, materialization, and compaction at massive scale.
Platform Engineering: Build and maintain multi-tenant, highly available infrastructure that powers background computational tasks for Kora’s long-term storage. Ensure that the platform is optimized for scalability, reliability, and resilience, in alignment with organizational objectives.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Collaborate with product management, design, and other engineering teams to ensure seamless integration of storage features and infrastructure with the broader organization.
What You Will Bring:
- BS, MS, or PhD in computer science or a related field, or equivalent work experience
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to influence and guide stakeholders at all levels.
- What Gives You an Edge:
- Familiarity with or has experience contributing to the following open-source technologies: Apache Kafka, Apache Iceberg, Apache Flink
- Experience/knowledge with public clouds (AWS, Azure or GCP)
