Qualifications

• Strong backend or distributed-systems engineering experience, ideally touching OLAP databases, query engines, or data infrastructure.
• Experience with SQL, query planning/execution, or building APIs that many other engineering teams depend on.
• Comfort reasoning about tradeoffs between flexibility, performance, and ease of use and making deliberate calls between them.
• A track record of owning ambiguous, cross-team projects end-to-end rather than just executing well-scoped tickets.
• Strong cross-functional collaboration skills; this team's work only matters in the context of the products built on top of it.

Responsibilities

• Design and build core parts of the query/compute engine that powers analysis across the company's product suite.
• Evolve the compute API and semantic layer that other engineering teams build features on top of, so that it can support a more generic table.
• Help unify and evolve our core data model, including how non-event data (profile properties, lookup tables, etc.) is represented alongside event data.
• Improve the performance, reliability, and scalability of query planning and execution on the company query engine.
• Partner with teams across Session Replay, Experiment, CDP, Query, and front-end to understand their needs and shape the compute layer around them.
• Take ownership of projects end-to-end, from design through rollout.
