PingCAP | Software Engineer | San Mateo and distributed | Full-Time | Remote | https://angel.co/pingcap-1/jobs We make TiDB, an open source distributed scale-out database that is consistent, always online, and MySQL compatible. Our underlying distributed key-value layer, TiKV, is a CNCF project. We have hundreds of users, some with 100+ TB of data. We need to keep scaling to larger datasets and find ways to help users access their data even faster. Our tech stack is Rust, Go, Kubernetes, and TiDB itself! Many different technical skill sets can be put to use here. You can work on making TiDB run in the cloud, do low-level database hacking, work on documentation, or working with customers. I am part of the international team that is oriented towards being remote, and we travel periodically to meet in person. I like working with TiDB because I get to be a part of a big change going on in databases and work with a skilled and friendly team. On a daily basis I learn new things about databases and the cloud, but I also get to apply my existing experiences to have a big impact. See the above jobs link for more details and compensation information.
