Customers use Neo4j to gain a deeper understanding of their business and reveal new ways of solving their most pressing problems. Over 84% of Fortune 100 companies use Neo4j, along with a vibrant community of 250,000+ developers, data scientists, and architects across the globe.

At Neo4j, we’re proud to build the technology that powers breakthrough solutions for our customers.

Some of our other notable customers include Intuit, Lockheed Martin, Novartis, UBS, and Walmart.

Neo4j experienced rapid growth this year as organizations looking to deploy generative AI (GenAI) recognized graph databases as essential for improving its accuracy, transparency, and explainability. Growth was further fueled by enterprise demand for Neo4j’s cloud offering and partnerships with leading cloud hyperscalers and ecosystem leaders. Learn more at neo4j.com and follow us on LinkedIn.

• Tackle complex and exciting engineering challenges in a rapidly growing area of focus, where your work will directly influence the performance, reliability, and scalability of our platform.

Required areas of experience:

• Advanced knowledge of Google Cloud, AWS and/or Azure
• Agile software development within a team environment
• Good working knowledge of Go
• Working in a 24/7/365 SaaS environment
• Solid understanding of DNS, TLS, mTLS, SNI and IPv6
• Build and deployment pipelines employing continuous delivery

Nice to have areas of experience:

• GCP Private Service Connect
• Kubernetes internal networks (Cilium, eBPF, Traefik, Calico, Linkerd, Istio, Consul)
• Architecting for high availability
