Role Summary:
We are looking for a hands-on Senior Software Engineer - Database Internals to join our Postgres Distributed (PGD) product development team building EDB’s strategic replication technology. As a core capability of our portfolio, PGD enables our customers with highly available and performant multi-node and cross-regional Postgres clusters for modern distributed computing environments. Joining as a member of the team, you will be expected to formulate and implement strategies to proactively identify and mitigate system vulnerabilities within the PGD architecture.
What Your Impact Will Be:
Work in our Postgres Distributed team, analyze business requirements, design, code, test, and document new features and enhancements for PGD.
Improve the performance and usability of existing PGD capabilities.
Be part of a team that owns all phases of the product development life cycle, from conception to delivery to customers, including support.
Build quality and security directly into the product, by taking advantage of automated testing and CI/CD pipelines.
Collaborate with engineering teams across the world, mentor, share information with and learn from other engineers and help drive continuous improvement of our product, without losing focus on the flow that generates customers’ value.
Bring an inquisitive, innovative & collegiate attitude to problem solving.

Solid background in Distributed Systems (e.g. database systems, Kubernetes clusters, cloud infrastructure)
Proficiency in building production software components (CLIs, services, clients) that interact over HTTP and gRPC
Experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP (Terraform or other infra-as-code solutions preferred)
Familiarity with HAProxy, Envoy or similar technologies
Familiarity with consensus tools (etcd, consul, zoo keeper etc)
Experienced in CI/CD development process
Strong problem-solving skills, at times this may be under pressure when in production
Ability to work independently and as part of a distributed international team
What Will Give You An Edge:
Understanding of the Postgres ecosystem, used or managed Postgres
Experience with script languages for testing, ideally Python
Can talk with confidence around the trade offs CAP theorem describes and the approaches of various consensus algorithms (Raft, Paxos etc)
Understand, and ideally have used, tools such as Jepsen or Chaos Monkey to test distributed systems under realistic failure conditions
Have worked in a “you build it you run it” environment, familiarity with dealing with customer situations
