As a core member, you'll design and deliver the critical building blocks: telemetry, messaging, KV store and persistence, application frameworks, caching, coordination, and events and audit services, along with Dremio's growing integration with the SAP platform. When these systems are rock-solid, the whole engineering org moves faster. You'll work at the intersection of DevOps/SRE and application development — designing solutions that are highly scalable and genuinely easy to use — while collaborating with core product teams to ship safely and partnering with Field teams to support customers at enterprise scale. This is also where Dremio's hardest distributed systems problems live. You'll tackle consistent persistence, distributed caching, networking, containerized services, private links, Terraform-driven infrastructure, and access control at scale. The scope is broad by design: we believe the best platform engineers are the ones who can hold the full picture and own problems end-to-end. You'll grow by taking on complex challenges, shipping high-quality systems at massive scale, and building the kind of foundational work that compounds across everything Dremio builds. What you'll be doing Build and own an observability platform that ingests customer telemetry — events, logs, and traces — using OpenTelemetry and industry best practicesDeliver dashboarding and visualization capabilities that give Support and Field teams real-time visibility into system health, emerging issues, and trends — and help customers stay resilient at scaleDesign and implement a notification and alerting system driven by telemetry data and heuristics with AI agents and lakehouse intelligenceWrite infrastructure-as-code with Helm and Terraform to simplify deployment and operations within Dremio SoftwareBuild and maintain application frameworks that standardize development across teams — tackling cross-cutting challenges like dependency injection and role-based access control at scalePartner with our SRE and DevOps teams to define best practices and deliver standardized solutions for common engineering workflowsEngage directly with the developer community to understand their pain points and turn those insights into platform improvementsHelp define and deliver roadmap and integration milestones with SAP HANA/BDC platform to deliver a cohesive experience Bachelor's, Master's, or higher in Computer Science or a related field5+ years of software engineering experience2+ years experience using Java2+ years hands-on with infrastructure-as-code (Helm, Terraform, or equivalent)Deep experience with a major cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP)Hands-on with OpenTelemetry or comparable observability platformsExperience with Kubernetes and DockerSolid understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, HTTP)Desire to learn new technologies and proven problem solver Bonus points if you have Experience building SaaS microservices and distributed systemsHands-on with multi-threaded or asynchronous programming modelsProficient with NoSQL databases (MongoDB, RocksDB) or RedisBackground in CI/CD tooling (Jenkins, ArgoCD)Other programming languages such as C++, Go, Python, Node.js, Rust, etcExperience in query processing, distributed systems, concurrency control, data replication, or storage systemsJava GC/heap tuning, Apache Arrow, SQL operators, or data-path optimization What we value At Dremio, we hold ourselves to high standards when it comes to People, Thinking, and Action.
