About the Role

Plot is building the next generation of social intelligence, an AI-native platform that helps influential brands understand culture, find emerging trends, and activate their communities at scale. You'll join a small but mighty team where engineers own systems end-to-end, work directly with founders, shape foundational architecture, and make decisions that define how Plot scales.

Responsibilities

  • Own the core data systems that power Plot, managing data flow from ingestion to product surfaces.
  • Stabilize and harden high-throughput write paths to ensure reliable data ingestion.
  • Design data access patterns that maintain performance under heavy load.
  • Separate transactional and analytical concerns by designing appropriate systems and contracts.
  • Build read-optimized models for insight, including partitioning, rollups, and schemas.
  • Enable AI-native analytics by shaping how internal tools and AI agents query data.
  • Make architectural decisions, evaluating tradeoffs and guiding the evolution of the data platform.
  • Raise the bar for reliability and performance by defining best practices and serving as a resource for data decisions.

Requirements

  • Deep experience operating Postgres in production under real-world read/write concurrency, including partitioning, locking, autovacuum, and connection pooling.
  • Strong systems intuition, with the ability to think in terms of bottlenecks, failure modes, and tradeoffs.
  • Experience designing or owning analytical data architectures, including read-optimized schemas, aggregations, or large-scale querying patterns.
  • Comfort leading ambiguous, high-impact work, with the ability to form clear mental models and chart pragmatic paths forward.
  • High ownership mindset, with a focus on digging into logs, metrics, and data to ensure correctness, reliability, and maintainability.
  • Curiosity, pragmatism, and a desire to build foundational systems.
  • Minimum 5 years of relevant experience.
