Staff Software Engineer - Database Engine Internals

Databricks Inc.
Mountain View, California, US
$192K-$260K a year
Full-time

Our mission at Databricks is to radically simplify the whole data lifecycle from ingestion to ETL, BI, and all the way up to ML / AI with a unified platform.

To achieve this goal, we believe the data warehouse architecture as we know it today will be replaced by a new architectural pattern, Lakehouse, open platforms that unify data warehousing and advanced analytics.

The new architecture will help address several major challenges, including data staleness, reliability, total cost of ownership, data lock-in, and limited use-case support.

All potential candidates should read through the following details of this job with care before making an application.

A critical part of realizing this vision is the next generation (decoupled) query engine and structured storage system that can outperform specialized data warehouses in relational query performance, yet retain the expressiveness of general purpose systems such as Spark to support diverse workloads ranging from ETL to data science.

As part of this team, you will be working in one or more of the following areas to design and implement these next gen systems that leapfrog state-of-the-art :

  • Query compilation and optimization
  • Distributed query execution and scheduling
  • Data security
  • Resource management
  • Transaction coordination
  • Automatic physical data optimization

What we look for :

  • Experience working towards a multi-year vision with incremental deliverables
  • Motivated by delivering customer value and impact
  • 8+ years of experience working in a related system (preferred)

Benefits :

  • Comprehensive health coverage including medical, dental, and vision
  • 401(k) Plan
  • Equity awards
  • Flexible time off
  • Paid parental leave
  • Family Planning
  • Gym reimbursement
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

Pay Range Transparency :

Databricks is committed to fair and equitable compensation practices. The pay range(s) for this role is listed below and represents base salary range for non-commissionable roles or on-target earnings for commissionable roles.

Actual compensation packages are based on several factors that are unique to each candidate, including but not limited to job-related skills, depth of experience, relevant certifications and training, and specific work location.

Based on the factors above, Databricks utilizes the full width of the range. The total compensation package for this position may also include eligibility for annual performance bonus, equity, and the benefits listed above.
