Staff Software Engineer - Streaming
About the Role
We're seeking an experienced Staff Engineer to drive the technical direction of Spark Structured Streaming, spanning both open source and Databricks-specific components. Your mission is to make Spark Structured Streaming the state-of-the-art stream processing engine — adding advanced capabilities such as sophisticated state management and new operators, while re-imagining the engine's architecture to drive improvements for latency, throughput, and cost.
Responsibilities
- Set and drive the technical vision for Spark Structured Streaming across OSS and the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform
- Design and build core engine capabilities — state management, new operators, and architectural improvements to latency and throughput
- Raise the bar for engineering quality and operability, building software that is not just high quality but easy to run in production
- Make company-wide impact by driving stream processing adoption across the Databricks product portfolio
- Guide long-term architecture and technical-debt decisions, balancing them against the product roadmap
- Mentor and technically lead engineers on the team, and partner with the Engineering Manager to attract and grow top-tier talent
Qualifications
- BS (or higher) in Computer Science or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
- 8+ years building related systems — big-data ecosystems, Apache Spark, or database internals
Skills
- A passion for database systems, storage systems, distributed systems, language design, or performance optimization
- Comfortable working toward a multi-year vision with incremental deliverables
- A track record of delivering features while maintaining a high bar for operational excellence and engineering quality
- Comfortable working cross-functionally with product management and directly with customers, with the ability to deeply understand the product and customer personas
