Team and Responsibilities
Apache Pinot is a distributed analytics database built for real-time applications at massive scale. It powers mission-critical workloads at companies including Splunk, Meesho, CrowdStrike, Together AI, and Charter Telecom, where milliseconds matter and scale is measured in millions of events and tens of thousands of queries per second.
CrowdStrike processes up to 120K events/sec and serves 25K queries/sec; Together AI analyzes billions of LLM token events per hour with sub-second latency; and Charter Telecom operates Pinot at an ingestion scale of 120M events/sec. These aren't just benchmarks—they are production systems powering real customer experiences.
At StarTree, you’ll work on the distributed systems behind this scale—solving hard problems in performance, reliability, concurrency, and data infrastructure. You’ll have the opportunity to make an impact from day one, take ownership of meaningful problems, and grow rapidly in a high-ownership startup environment.
