The ideal person takes pride in building coherent and usable interfaces making it easy to use and operate on data.

This role would allow you to take on on challenging problems, choose the right tools for the job and build elegant, scalable solutions. Your work as an experienced Java engineer will empower over 9,000 businesses around the world to provide great customer service, and will support the other senior engineers on your team.

We leverage Solr for several tools at Help Scout. Knowledge or even expertise in Solr is desired. However, as our data needs grow we look beyond search and towards Big Data solutions. We are seeking someone who can join the team and help us solve all kinds of data processing and analysis problems.

About the role

You will be the fourth member of our search and data services team, collaborating on the next generation of our large-scale search and reporting service and associated infrastructure. On a daily basis, you'll work on adding new functionality, improving existing code, and API endpoints while maintaining focus on testing and documentation.

We currently index millions of search and report events every day and at peak hours our API handles tens of thousands of transactions a minute. You will play a key role in evolving our services to handle 10X that.
You will own some of our large, upcoming challenges and collaborate with your team on all of these: building a streaming data reports pipeline, reworking how we index data and retrieve data to scale while controlling infrastructure costs, and significantly improving our search relevancy and customer-facing reporting capabilities.

Our engineering team is over 40 people, more than half the company. As part of the search and data team you will be involved in the decisions made regarding implementation, testing, and backlog prioritization.

We work in using iterative software approach, communicate mostly via Slack and are committed to remote, agile development. When you are ready, you’ll create and send a pull request with tests and tag your team for review - using video and screen-sharing as needed. Your development builds can be easily tested on environments that closely match production. You’ll work autonomously for the most part and we trust you to get work done when/where you can be productive.

Your team performs engineering support when a question can’t be answered by our in-house support team and passes triage. We’ll get you up-to-speed with engineering support so you can help our customers and improve the product along the way.

Everything is secondary to the customer experience. We expect you to have a keen sense of how your code will impact the experience in terms of performance, security and usability.

Website: https://www.datastax.com
Headquarter: Silicon Valley, California, United States
DataStax delivers the always-on, Active Everywhere distributed hybrid cloud database built on Apache Cassandra™. We are seeking a talented Apache Cassandra Engineer to join our team.


Job Description:

We’re looking for talented software engineers with a passion for learning and a systems-oriented view of software engineering to join our team working full-time on Apache Cassandra. In this position you will be working in an important role on a complex infrastructure project used by many major organizations across the world, collaborating with engineers both within DataStax and without to improve the project.

You’ll work towards becoming a committer on the Apache Cassandra project and develop relationships with some of the best distributed systems engineers in the world in this role. If you want to work on the most interesting problems of your career with the most collaborative and skilled peers you’ve ever worked with, this might be the role for you!

In this position, you’ll take a leadership role in maintaining and improving Apache Cassandra. Collaborating with engineers from across the world at many diverse companies, you’ll work on the open-source project, reproducing, fixing, and testing solutions and improvements for complex issues in large distributed environments.

Engineers on this team collaborate extensively with internal teams across DataStax to coordinate for releases, supporting existing customers through defect fixes and improvements, and reviewing and advising on documentation for the project.

We’re looking for engineers that have a knack for untangling complex knots in code-bases and concurrent systems, with expertise in a C-lineage language (C++, Java, C#, etc). A gut passion for quality, elegance, and simplicity in solutions and code is critical in this role and on this project. If you’re comfortable navigating multi-threaded systems and applying algorithms in large-scale software systems (or if you want to be!), this would probably be a great fit for you.

As a remote first company, things are a little different at DataStax. We primarily communicate via chat on Slack, via video calls, or via email async. This environment is awesome for the right person; work-life balance, the ability to focus without interruption for long periods of time, being able to spend time with your family and greet the kids when they get home from school: all of these are huge benefits of working from home, with the added benefit of being included in discussions and decision-making with an engineering org that’s fully remote.

Given how much of our work takes place via text and remotely, it’s critical that you have excellent written communication skills and that you’re a self-starter; nobody will be watching over your shoulder in a cubicle here!


Essential Job Functions:
  • Author, debug, and improve code in the open-source Apache Cassandra project
  • Collaborate with engineers both within and without DataStax on complex, interesting problems and solutions
  • Participate in the project direction and conferences for Apache Cassandra
  • Help prepare different teams for Apache Cassandra releases (documentation, field, etc)
  • Work remotely full-time, discussing things with your peers over Slack, email, or video chat
  • Job Requirements:
  • Comfortable in a c-lineage language that supports the OO paradigm (C++, Java, C#, rust, go, etc)
  • Ability to work autonomously, self-manage your time, and to an extent self-direct when given high level strategic priorities
  • Ability to communicate clearly with peers and stakeholders via text (JIRA, slack, email)
  • A desire to learn and grow daily, both technically and w/soft-skills interpersonally
  • An open-minded and collaborative attitude
  • Experience with concurrency
