Software Engineer - Database Engine Internals

P-1415 Our mission at Databricks is to radically simplify the whole data lifecycle from ingestion to ETL, BI, and all the way up to ML/AI with a unified platform. To achieve this goal, we believe the data warehouse architecture as we know it today will be replaced by a new architectural pattern, Lakehouse ( CIDR 2021 paper ), open platforms that unify data warehousing and advanced analytics. This new architecture will help address several major challenges, including data staleness, reliability, total cost of ownership, data lock-in, and limited use-case support. To achieve this vision, Databricks is building the next generation (decoupled) query engine and structured storage system that can outperform specialized data warehouses in relational query performance. Yet we will retain the expressiveness and robustness of general purpose systems such as Apache Spark™ to support diverse workloads ranging from ETL to data science. You will be part of this multi-year journey. As part of this team, you will design these next-generation systems that leapfrog state-of-the-art within the following areas: Query compilation and optimization Distributed query execution and scheduling Vectorized execution engine Data security Resource management Transaction coordination Efficient storage structures (encodings, indexes) Automatic physical data optimization The responsibilities you will have: Drive requirements clarity and design decisions for ambiguous problems Produce technical design documents and project plans Develop new features Mentor more junior engineers Test and rollout to production, monitoring. What we look for: A passion for database systems, storage systems, distributed systems, language design, or performance optimization Are comfortable working towards a multi-year vision with incremental deliverables Be customer-oriented and focused on having an impact 5+ years of experience working in a related system Optional: PhD in databases or distributed systems About Dat

P-1414 At Databricks, we are passionate about helping data teams solve the world's toughest problems — from making the next mode of transportation a reality to accelerating the development of medical breakthroughs. We do this by building and running the world's best data and AI infrastructure platform so our customers can use deep data insights to improve their business. Founded by engineers, Databricks has started a multi-year journey to build the best Data Intelligence Platform. For this we are building on top of a great foundation but our goal is to go further to build dramatically better products. From the Storage Engine (data layout, encryption, caching, ...) to the Query Engine (Vectorization, Query Optimization, …), we want to revisit every component to provide our customers with the fastest, easiest to use and most secure data platform for all their data workloads. As a software engineer, you will join as a founding member of the not only the Belgrade site, but really as a founding team for our multi-year journey to achieve our Lakehouse vision. You will be involved in the entire development cycle and exemplify all core Databricks values (own-it, data decide, teamwork, customer-obsessed). The responsibilities you will have : Drive requirements clarity and design decisions for ambiguous problems Produce technical design documents and project plans Develop new features Mentor more junior engineers Test and rollout to production, monitoring. What we look for: BS in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience in databases or distributed systems Comfortable working towards a multi-year vision with incremental deliverables Motivated by delivering customer value and impact 3+ years of production level experience in either Java, Scala or C++ Solid foundation in algorithms and data structures and their real-world use cases Experience with distributed systems, databases, and big data systems (Apache Spark™, Hadoop) About Databricks Databricks is the Data and A
