Software Engineer - Go/Kubernetes, Sharding team

Neo4j, London +1

The role

We're looking for a software engineer to join the Neo4j Sharding Engineering team. We own Infinigraph and Composite, and we make them work as managed offerings on Aura, Neo4j’s cloud platform.

Aura is Neo4j’s fully managed graph database as a service. Customers create, scale, and use Neo4j databases in the cloud without installing, clustering, or operating the database themselves. Aura runs on Kubernetes across Google Cloud, AWS, and Azure, and handles provisioning, networking, security, upgrades, and day-to-day operations for those databases.

Nice to bring

Java, Scala, or other JVM experience. Much of the database itself is written in Java, so this helps you go deeper over time.
Familiarity with the operator pattern in Kubernetes and extending the API through Custom Resources.
Understanding of the internals of databases, compilers, or query languages.
Experience with asynchronous and reactive programming.
Experience of distributed systems through usage, administration, or development, and an interest in recent distributed systems developments, academic or industrial.
Experience integrating software with Google Cloud Platform, AWS, or Azure.
Experience with common observability practices: tracing, logging, and metrics exporting.
Experience building or operating managed cloud services (control planes, multi-tenant platforms, or database-as-a-service).

Research shows that members of underrepresented communities are less likely to apply for jobs when they don’t meet all the qualifications. If this is part of the reason you hesitate to apply, we’d encourage you to reconsider and give us the opportunity to review your application. At Neo4j, we are committed to building awareness and helping to improve these issues.

One of our central objectives is to provide an inclusive, diverse, and equitable workplace for everyone to develop their potential and have a positive, career-defining experience. We look forward to receiving your application.
