New York, New York, United States Cockroach Labs Full time

Cockroach Labs is the driving force behind CockroachDB, a groundbreaking cloud-native, distributed SQL database that scales rapidly, withstands any challenge, and thrives anywhere. We developed CockroachDB to free teams from the constraints of their databases. Join us on our mission to simplify how businesses build and operate world-changing applications.

About the Role

CockroachDB provides the backbone for storing data on a global scale. As a Data Infrastructure Architect, you'll help manage and scale our CockroachCloud service, a fully managed offering of CockroachDB. You will oversee our production system, ensuring stable and scalable infrastructure as we deliver CockroachDB to our customers. CockroachCloud is a global service spanning multiple cloud providers. Roughly half of your time will be spent on greenfield development work, with an emphasis on developing tooling and driving automation. In this role, you will collaborate across multiple teams within CockroachCloud as well as development and product teams working on CockroachDB.

  • Manage the infrastructure for cloud services, including running internal production systems and hosting CockroachDB for our external customers.
  • Design, write, and deliver software and systems to increase product reliability and operational efficiency.
  • Develop custom tools as necessary.
  • Keep a complex system running and solve problems related to mission-critical services.
  • Design, implement, operate, and troubleshoot the automation and monitoring of production clusters to maximize performance and availability.
  • Drive the company through disaster recovery tests, where we manually turn down pieces of CockroachDB to test its overall resilience to failures.
  • Participate in an on-call rotation for our production systems and hosted services.
The Expectations

In your first 30 days, you will onboard and become familiar with our current internal and customer-facing production systems. Working with our existing SRE and engineering teams, you will pair on production operations and build out runbooks for the operation of different systems.

After 3 months, you'll be fully integrated into the team. You will develop and own tooling for reliability, automation, and other issues related to CockroachCloud's stability and scalability. You will identify new opportunities for automating processes, streamlining delivery, deploying new core functionality, and building great tools. You will contribute to making CockroachCloud the best platform to host CockroachDB on by bringing your expertise to our database.

  • Expertise in analyzing, monitoring, and troubleshooting large-scale distributed systems.
  • Experience in software development using one or more of the following: Go, C, C++, Python, Java.
  • Proficiency working with algorithms, data structures, and production troubleshooting.
