About the Role

Join the Database Connector team to build and operate core replication technology for reliable, scalable data movement for enterprise customers. This role is ideal for engineers interested in database internals, change data capture, replication correctness, and large-scale distributed systems. You will lead the design and evolution of connector capabilities, investigate complex replication behaviors, and shape the technical direction of systems supporting mission-critical workloads, including large Oracle deployments.

Responsibilities

Design, build, and improve database connectors focusing on correctness, performance, scalability, and operability.
Investigate complex replication and CDC issues in production systems used by enterprise customers.
Analyze low-level database behavior, logs, and transaction flows to support new features and improve reliability.
Develop support for new database capabilities, especially in Oracle and other enterprise database platforms.
Drive software design and technical roadmap decisions for the team.
Improve observability, testing, and operational excellence across connector systems.
Partner with engineers across teams to raise architecture quality and reliability across the broader platform.
Mentor engineers and provide technical leadership through design reviews, implementation guidance, and hands-on development.

Requirements

Significant hands-on software engineering experience building backend, infrastructure, or distributed systems.
Strong experience with Java and/or C/C++ in production systems.
Deep understanding of database internals, transaction semantics, query behavior, and data consistency.
Experience building or maintaining data replication, CDC, ETL/ELT, migration, or connector systems.
Experience investigating low-level or poorly documented system behavior, such as binary logs, protocols, storage formats, or APIs.
Strong system design skills, especially for reliable distributed systems operating under strict correctness and availability requirements.
Ability to lead technical direction and influence architecture across teams.
Strong communication skills and a track record of mentoring engineers.
