What we do: Application complexity is shooting through the roof, and a large part of the reason is obsolescence of underlying data platforms that were built for centralized and simpler workloads. We are building the next generation data fabric for cloud native applications - where data mobility and portability is a central theme. This vision is matched by the passion of the database team (with experience at Google, Facebook, and other internet scale companies), and we are recruiting our first engineers that will help establish the direction for the platform and establish the culture for the company.

What you'll do as a Database Engineer: As a Database Engineer, you will design, implement, and deploy highly distributed, large-scale services. You will translate complex functional and technical requirements into detailed architecture and design. You will be very hands on, and work with others on the engineering team to manage day-to-day development activities, and participate in designs, design reviews, code reviews, and implementation. Our ideal candidate will be passionate about delivering high quality solutions to complex engineering problems, while working within a team.

Required Qualifications: --BS or MS in Computer Science or a similar field (PhD a -plus) --Previous experience building distributed databases or storage software --Experience with lower level systems programming in C or C++

Bonus Qualifications: --Track record of successfully shipping systems or infrastructure software --Experience with cloud-based technologies

We are also looking for a Sales candidate with 5+ years of experience. In this role you will be joining our sales team by recognizing prospective client key business requirements while interacting with our clients and achieving quarterly quotas.

If you have experience working in a relevant field and are open to new opportunity / interested in our tech or joining our team, please send your resume to julia@grainite.com (:

ClustrixDB - San Francisco, San Jose, or Seattle

---- Senior Software Engineer ----

Clustrix is solving one of the most difficult open problems in the software database industry today: scaling SQL. We’ve built our own distributed relational database from the ground up. Now we’re looking for smart and motivated folks to join our small team of developers and take this technology to the next level. We work on:

- a C codebase written mostly in continuation-passing style database fundamentals: B-trees, logging and recovery, checkpointing, MVCC

- a Paxos-based distributed system: group membership, transaction consensus, global checkpoint

- a query planner and compiler, modeled on the Cascades Framework, which generates distributed queries

- a rebalancer, which manages data distribution across the cluster

You should be someone with experience in databases, file systems, or other systems at scale and comfortable with designing efficient programs in C.

Here are some things that make Clustrix a great place to work:

- Our team is small, so you get to own significant projects and contribute in a big way to the product.

- We have a lot of interesting problems to work on, in a variety of areas.

- Our customers love us. We help them do things they could never do with their legacy SQL databases.

- We are passionate about making our software work better and faster

Our customer base is growing, both in number and in size of deployment. Their clusters keep getting bigger and their workloads more varied, so you will see interesting challenges and solutions in solving those.

We have offices in Seattle, San Jose, and San Francisco, with all the perks you expect from a startup (happy hours, snacks, hoodies, etc).

Let’s build a scalable database!

We're a distributed database startup in Seattle, WA. We make a database that can handle queries and fulltext searches on "Big Data". It's an elegant architecture, and a lot of fun to work on.

We're about to be in a position to hire a few folks:

1. Distributed systems hackers 2. Infrastructure automation engineers (think Chef, Google SREs) 3. Customer Development fans (think Steve Blank's book).

Check out our very spartan webpage at drawntoscale.com, and drop us a line there if you're interested.

Remote working is a possibility :)
