Montreal, Quebec, Canada Confluent, Inc Full time

We are seeking a talented Senior Software Engineer II to join our team at Confluent, Inc. in a key role focusing on the development and management of our Kafka metadata layer. As a member of our engineering team, you will be responsible for designing, implementing, and operating a highly available, reliable, secure, scalable, and multi-tenant metadata layer for our distributed streaming platform.

The successful candidate will have a strong background in distributed systems design and development, with experience building and operating large-scale systems in the cloud. They will possess a solid understanding of basic systems operations, including disk, network, and operating systems. Proficiency in Java, Scala, C/C++, Go, or other statically typed languages is required. In-depth familiarity with the JVM and a strong background in distributed storage systems or databases are also highly desirable.

In this role, you will be working closely with the team and key stakeholders to design, architect, and develop top-notch solutions. You will be instrumental in driving the technical solutions end-to-end, including identifying root causes, getting beyond treating symptoms, and motivated to dig deep and solve hard problems. The team just completed a major initiative to implement its own consensus protocol based on the Raft protocol, named Kraft, which has allowed the team to remove the dependency on Zookeeper, enabling more scalable and robust metadata management and a simpler deployment model for Kafka.

Our team is responsible for managing the metadata that makes Kafka a reliable, fault-tolerant, and high-performance distributed streaming platform. This includes coordinating the election of leaders, monitoring broker availability, persisting and distributing metadata, coordinating cluster-wide actions, and more. We are excited to have you join our team and contribute to the success of Confluent, Inc.

Responsibilities:

  • Driven and excited about delivering complex projects in production with a focus on quality
  • Customer-focused - making customers more successful by taking on their most challenging problems motivates you
  • Have a strong sense of teamwork and able to make decisions which benefit the team and company
  • Identify root causes, and get beyond treating symptoms - motivated to dig deep and solve hard problems

Requirements:

  • BS, MS, or PhD in computer science or a related field, or equivalent work experience
  • 4+ years of relevant cloud infrastructure/cloud networking experience
  • Strong fundamentals in distributed systems design and development
  • Experience building and operating large-scale systems in the Cloud
  • Solid understanding of basic systems operations (disk, network, operating systems)
  • A self-starter with the ability to work effectively in teams
  • Proficiency in Java, Scala, C/C++, Go, or other statically typed languages

What Gives You an Edge:

  • In-depth familiarity with the JVM
  • A strong background in distributed storage systems or databases
  • Experience/knowledge with public clouds (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
  • Interest in evangelism (giving talks at tech conferences, writing blog posts evangelizing Kafka)
  • Experience working on databases or data storage

At Confluent, equality is a core tenet of our culture. We are committed to building an inclusive global team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, beliefs, and experiences. The more diverse we are, the richer our community and the broader our impact.
