Job Description:
At Cloudera, we empower people to transform complex data into clear and actionable insights. With as much data under management as the hyperscalers, we're the preferred data partner for the top companies in almost every industry. Powered by the relentless innovation of the open source community, Cloudera advances digital transformation for the world’s largest enterprises.
Cloudera is looking for an exceptional and passionate full-stack software engineer to join the Cloudera Data Services team. The team builds the control plane, Kubernetes operators, APIs, and web interfaces that run popular open-source query engines like Trino over table formats such as Apache Iceberg. This is an exciting opportunity to work on products that handle complex SQL query workloads on public or private clouds. The role is full stack: Go services and Kubernetes operators on the backend, React and TypeScript on the frontend.
As a Sr. Software Engineer, you will:
Work on the services that provision, configure, scale, and monitor SQL warehouses on Kubernetes, in a distributed team of full-stack engineers
Design and build Go backend services: OpenAPI-defined REST and gRPC APIs, long-running lifecycle workflows and PostgreSQL-backed state
Build Kubernetes operators that run Trino from custom resources: controllers, CRD design, layered configuration and Helm-based deployment
Build web applications with React and TypeScript for managing warehouses, browsing catalogs and monitoring queries and cluster health
Own features end to end, from design through testing, rollout, and production support, as containerized services across Kubernetes flavors such as EKS, AKS, and OpenShift.
Write design documentation for key features and capabilities
Improve code quality through writing tests, automation, and code reviews
Understand the customer's workload and provide effective technical solutions
We’re excited about you if you have:
BS or MS in Computer Science or a related field
5+ years of relevant industry experience designing and developing enterprise software with a strong understanding of scaling and performance
Clean coding habits, attention to detail, and a focus on quality
Hands-on programmer with strong data structures and algorithms skills. Strong Go experience is required; Java experience is desired
Experience building Kubernetes operators with client-go and controller-runtime or kubebuilder, including CRD design and Helm
Experience building backend services with OpenAPI-defined REST or gRPC APIs and PostgreSQL
Experience building web applications with React and TypeScript
Working knowledge of SQL and of operating a query engine such as Trino or similar engines: configuration, catalogs, coordinator and worker topology
Practitioner of automated testing (unit, integration, end-to-end) and CI/CD
Self-driven with a strong sense of ownership and craftsmanship, along with a high bias for action
Strong oral and written communication skills
Ability to work effectively on cross-functional projects
You may also have:
Java experience, especially understanding or extending Trino or similar engine
Experience with service meshes such as Istio and Kubernetes autoscaling (KEDA)
Experience with Kerberos, LDAP or SAML, Apache Ranger, Prometheus and OpenTelemetry
Experience with Redux or JavaScript codebases adopting TypeScript, and with Playwright or Jest
Experience with GitOps and OCI registries
What you can expect from us:
Generous PTO Policy
Support work life balance with Unplugged Days
Flexible WFH Policy
Mental & Physical Wellness programs
Phone and Internet Reimbursement program
Access to Continued Career Development
