As a Senior Software Engineer on the Content Lake DX team, you’ll be responsible for building highly scalable, performant distributed systems that provide our core content storage and querying capabilities and serve millions of requests a minute.

About you:

  • A proven track record of building and running distributed applications at scale, preferably at a product/SaaS company

  • Have a passion for cutting-edge technology, you love to know about latest developments and apply them to your work.

  • Comprehensive health plans and perks

  • A healthy work-life balance that accommodates individual and family needs

  • Competitive salary and stock options program
