Content Creation: Develop and share best practices, reference architectures, and technical whitepapers to help both customers and internal teams. Recommended Requirements
Experience: 5+ years of experience in a customer-facing technical role, such as Solutions Architect, Technical Account Manager, or Solutions Engineer. Proven track record of designing and deploying complex database systems for large enterprise accounts. Experience with SaaS, PaaS, or DBaaS products is a must. Technical Skills: Deep expertise in database technologies, specifically distributed SQL, NoSQL, or relational databases, is highly preferred. Strong understanding of distributed systems principles, including CAP theorem, sharding, and replication. Proficiency in cloud-native technologies, including Kubernetes, microservices, and public cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure). Familiarity with distributed databases such as CockroachDB, TiDB, Spanner, or Cassandra is a plus. Hands-on experience with SQL, database design, and performance tuning. Familiarity with scripting languages (e.g., Python, Go) and CI/CD pipelines. Soft Skills: Exceptional communication and presentation skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences. Strong problem-solving and analytical abilities. Self-motivated, proactive, and a natural collaborator. A passion for helping customers succeed and a genuine curiosity about technology. We feel strongly about equal pay for equal work, and transparency in compensation is one way to help achieve that. The cash compensation for this role is market competitive, with a range of $175,000-$220,000 USD, inclusive of variable/incentive for some roles. As well as equity (when applicable), and benefits including health plans, retirement plans, and unlimited paid time off (PTO).
