Descripción del empleo

At Qbeast, we believe in transforming the way the tech world processes and analyzes data. Data has become the lifeblood of modern activities, and its importance grows daily with the rise of cutting-edge AI workloads. The demand for efficient, cost-effective, and scalable data solutions has never been higher.

Just like the Cubism Art Movement changed the way to perceive reality in the early 20th century, we at Qbeast crave radically different approaches to storing and processing data. Qbeast is an early-stage startup on a mission to accelerate data analytics for Data Lakehouses—independent of query engine or table format. Born from research at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC), Qbeast’s foundation lies in groundbreaking multi-dimensional indexing techniques.

We envision a future in which this core indexing technology initially becomes an essential piece of data infrastructure and over time expands to touch every critical aspect of data engineering, from storage all the way to query engines, redefining how we approach current and future AI workloads. Our goal is to make this technology accessible worldwide, across clouds, and reshape the landscape of data processing.

With headquarters in Barcelona and Seattle, we are a diverse, international team driven by passion and expertise. Backed by strong funding, we have the resources and time to craft a product that delights our customers. We value flexibility, offering a hybrid remote work model and adaptable working hours.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a talented engineer to join our team and contribute to the development of our core acceleration technology.

What We Are Looking For :

• Experience : A minimum of three years in professional software development.
• Education : A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field.
• Technical Skills :

Strong knowledge of algorithms and data structures.

• Familiarity with database internals.
• Experience with Data Lakehouse formats (e.g., Delta Lake, Apache Hudi, Apache Iceberg) is a plus.
• Knowledge of storage I / O is a bonus.
• Proficiency in Java, Scala, and Rust, with the adaptability to work in other languages as needed.
• Experience with query engines like Apache Spark, Trino, or emerging ones like DataFusion.
• Soft Skills :

Proficiency in English (our working language).

• Organized, autonomous, and proactive approach to work.
• Willingness to learn new skills and share knowledge.
• A collaborative mindset and strong team spirit.
• Revolutionary data analytics technology supporting various processing frameworks.
• Cloud-based infrastructure spanning multiple providers.
• Kubernetes for orchestration, Terraform for infrastructure management, and GitHub for version control.
• A SaaS platform powered by Typescript, Rust, Java, Scala, and Python.

What We Offer

• A Startup Culture : Be part of building both revolutionary software and a forward-thinking work environment.
• A Talented Team : Collaborate with a high concentration of tech talent.
