Senior Staff SDE I
*Candidate Note: This position is 100% remote for candidates based in EMEA.
We are seeking a highly skilled PostgreSQL and Kubernetes Specialist to design, implement, and maintain the EDB Postgres Distributed (PGD) Operator on a multi-master distributed PostgreSQL solution that provides high availability, geographic distribution, and active-active replication for enterprise workloads.
As a member of the team, you will work directly on PGD operator’s architecture design, development, testing, and documentation of new and existing capabilities with EDB’s quality standards.
What you’ll be doing:
Design, develop, test, and document Kubernetes operators to manage PGD clusters in public, private, and hybrid cloud environments
Analyze business requirements and translate them into executable tasks
Provide world-class production support to EDB’s PGD customers on K8s
Participate in code reviews and collaborate with a globally distributed team
What you will bring:
5+ years of experience in a software engineering position
Strong proficiency with Kubernetes Operators development in Go language (controller-runtime)
Strong proficiency with Kubernetes API programming (event-driven)
Experience with PostgreSQL internals (storage engine, WAL, replication, catalog system, or extension development)
Understanding of distributed systems concepts: replication topologies, consensus, conflict resolution, eventual consistency, and failure modes
Experience working on multi-version/multi-branch codebases with active backporting workflows
Familiarity with build systems and CI/CD practices
Comfort working with Git on a large, long-lived codebase with complex branching
Strong debugging and performance analysis skills
What will set you apart:
Prior contributions to Cloud Native PG or other Open-Source projects in the Cloud Native operator's landscape
Advanced experience with Kubernetes administration, preferably with relevant certifications from CNCF such as Certified Kubernetes Administrator and Certified Kubernetes Security
Expertise with PostgreSQL administration
Experience with vendor-supported container orchestration platforms, both public (such as EKS, AKS and GKE) and private (such as Red Hat OpenShift, Rancher, or Tanzu)
Experience with logical replication, logical decoding, or custom replication solutions
Experience with high availability architectures and failover mechanisms
