Confluent - Senior Software Engineer - Cloud Compute Platform
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no invention. Remove boilerplate. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to parse the posting: It includes introduction about IBM Software, then About Confluent, then About The Role, then responsibilities list, then Preferred Education, Required Technical And Professional Expertise, Preferred Technical And Professional Experience.
We need to map to sections: About the role (maybe "About The Role" heading). Responsibilities (list of duties). Requirements (maybe required technical and professional expertise). Qualifications (maybe preferred education? Or combine). Skills (maybe technical skills). Benefits, Pay, Schedule: not present, so omit.
We must not create sections with filler. So we include only sections with content.
We need to preserve all substantive info: introduction paragraphs about IBM Software and Confluent maybe considered part of "About the role"? But they are more company overview. Could be part of "About the role" or maybe we can include as prose under "About the role". The instruction: use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have heading About the role and include the introductory paragraphs about IBM Software and Confluent and the role description.
Then Responsibilities: list of duties (the bullet list under "What You Will Do").
Requirements: required technical and professional expertise (the list after "Required Technical And Professional Expertise").
Qualifications: maybe preferred education (Master's Degree) and preferred technical experience? Could combine but we need to decide. The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications. Skills maybe covered under Requirements. But we could also have Skills separate if we have list of skills. However the posting includes technical expertise list which could be considered Skills. But we already have Requirements. To avoid thin sections, we could combine Requirements and Skills into one section called Requirements (or Qualifications). But we need to follow headings list; we can omit Skills if not needed.
Qualifications: could include Preferred Education and Preferred Technical And Professional Experience.
Thus sections:
About the role
with paragraphs: introduction about IBM Software, About Confluent, and the role description paragraph (starting "As a Software Engineer on the Compute Platform team...").
Responsibilities
with - list of duties from "What You Will Do". Each bullet.
Requirements
with - list from "Required Technical And Professional Expertise". Each bullet.
Qualifications
with for Preferred Education (Master's Degree) and maybe a
- for Preferred Technical And Professional Experience list.
We must not include headings with filler. Ensure we preserve all substantive info: need to include all bullet points exactly as given.
Let's extract bullet points.
From "What You Will Do":
- Own features end to end for the Compute Platform, such as multi-cluster orchestration, workload placement, and security architecture
- Design and implement platform APIs and Kubernetes operators using Go to support evolving workload requirements
- Deliver high-impact initiatives in areas such as workload scheduling, disruption management, network isolation, rolling update strategies, and cross-cluster resource management
- Lead technical design reviews and drive architectural decisions across organizational boundaries
- Mentor and grow other engineers on the team through code reviews, pairing, and technical guidance
- Own operational aspects including availability, reliability, performance monitoring, emergency response, and disaster recovery for our global compute infrastructure
From "Required Technical And Professional Expertise":
- 5+ years of experience delivering scalable software solutions
- Proven track record of leading the delivery of large-scale, highly available, low-latency systems
- Deep expertise in Kubernetes including controller development, operator patterns, and multi-cluster architectures
- Strong proficiency in Go with experience building production-grade distributed systems
- Experience with multi-tenant platform architectures and security isolation patterns
- Track record of working collaboratively across teams including product management, SRE, and other engineering teams
From "Preferred Education": Master's Degree (just that line).
From "Preferred Technical And Professional Experience":
- Experience with observability tools and operational excellence practices
- Experience with multi-cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure) and cloud-provider integrations
- Track record of providing technical leadership and mentorship
- A smart, humble, and empathetic attitude with a strong sense of teamwork
- Drive and excitement about the challenges of a fast-paced, innovative software environment
- Familiarity with gRPC, Protobuf, and API design for internal platform services
Now we need to include introductory paragraphs.
