Job Description
Backend engineers at Confluent build cloud services for our data streaming platform. Ensuring secure, reliable, and scalable operations in a cloud-native environment.
Responsibilities:
- Design, build, and operate backend services that are secure, reliable, and scalable in a cloud-native environment.
- Own features and projects end to end: requirements, design, implementation, testing, rollout, and ongoing improvements.
- Work with distributed systems and microservices, with a focus on performance, resiliency, and clear API contracts.
- Contribute to service reliability and operations, including monitoring, alerting, and on-call participation where applicable.
- Collaborate with partner teams on architecture, data modeling, and integration points across Confluent’s platform.
- Write clean, well-tested, and well-documented code, and participate in code reviews that raise the bar for the team.
- Help improve engineering practices, tools, and automation to make it easier and safer to ship code.
- Contribute to a healthy team culture through clear communication, inclusive collaboration, and a willingness to learn and teach.
Requirements:
- 3+ years of industry experience designing, building, and supporting backend systems in production.
- Strong programming and algorithmic skills in at least one major language (for example, Java, Go, C/C++, or Python), and the ability to learn new languages and frameworks as needed.
- Experience with distributed systems or large-scale backend services, such as microservices, data pipelines, event-driven architectures, or high-throughput APIs.
- Hands-on experience deploying and operating services on a public cloud (AWS, GCP, or Azure), including knowledge of containers and orchestration tools (for example, Docker and Kubernetes).
- Familiarity with databases and storage systems, such as relational databases, NoSQL stores, or distributed data systems, and an understanding of performance and scalability tradeoffs.
- A focus on quality and reliability, including testing strategies, observability (metrics, logging, tracing), and incident response best practices.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively with cross-functional partners across time zones.
- A growth mindset: you’re curious, open to feedback, and comfortable working in areas that may be new to you.
- BS, MS, or PhD in computer science, engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
