_We are a team of doers, seasoned engineers, hackers and builders, working on the future of streaming data.

__Funded by premier investors including GV and Lightspeed, Redpanda is building the streaming data platform for developers.

  • Guide and evolve our system architecture in collaboration with other engineering leaders
  • Identify and champion new features, process changes, and other strategic projects that improve our engineering culture and operational excellence
  • Participate in an on-call escalation chain, help drive down problems that lead to on-call escalations, and help drive improving on-call quality of life
  • Work with all the engineering teams on building new services to be deployed across all of our supported clouds
  • Build tools & services to allow automated infrastructure provisioning and self-healing, including deployments and upgrades
  • Make resilience and observability integral to the system, enabling us to run a managed, cloud-based streaming-as-a-service with >99.9% uptime

_You Have:

_

  • Passion for working on deeply technical projects, distributed systems, concurrency & parallelism, and correctness
  • Extensive experience designing and operating reliable large-scale systems in public clouds
  • Experience in shaping, managing, and deploying workloads in Kubernetes
  • Deep understanding of Go
  • Expert knowledge of at least one: AWS, Azure, GCP including experience with IAC both system and network infrastructure
  • Understanding of stream processing
  • Experience and comfortable working with a 100% distributed engineering team, collaborating on GitHub, in the open and a self-starter
  • Passion to grow a culture of written tradition
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, capable of engaging with stakeholders at all levels of the organization

Nice to have:

  • Working knowledge of building Kubernetes operators for storage systems and stateful workloads
  • Experience building a SaaS platform
  • Operated and used streaming platforms either as a user or provider

_U.S. base salary range for this role is $219,500 - $258,000 (CA, NY, WA) and $210,000 - $247,000 (other US locations). Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location.

__Redpanda is used by Fortune 1000 enterprises pushing hundreds of terabytes a day, as well as by the solo dev prototyping a React application on her laptop. Think of it as a streaming data API platform that scales with you from the smallest projects to petabytes of data distributed across the globe.

Join Redpanda if you’d enjoy being part of a fast-moving, 100% remote organization with team members around the globe and a culture based on trust, transparency, communication, and kindness._
