About Us At Cloudflare, we are on a mission to help build a better Internet. Today the company runs one of the world’s largest networks that powers millions of websites and other Internet properties for customers ranging from individual bloggers to SMBs to Fortune 500 companies. Cloudflare protects and accelerates any Internet application online without adding hardware, installing software, or changing a line of code. Internet properties powered by Cloudflare all have web traffic routed through its intelligent global network, which gets smarter with every request. As a result, they see significant improvement in performance and a decrease in spam and other attacks. Cloudflare was named to Entrepreneur Magazine’s Top Company Cultures list and ranked among the World’s Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company. At Cloudflare, we’re not looking for people who wait for a polished roadmap; we’re looking for the builders who see the cracks in the Internet that everyone else has simply learned to live with. We value candidates who have the instinct to spot a "normalized" problem and the AI-native curiosity to create a solution using the latest tools. Our culture is built on iteration, leveraging AI to ship faster today to make it better tomorrow, while ensuring that every improvement, no matter how small, is shared across the team to lift everyone up. If you’re the type of person who values curiosity over bureaucracy, and that AI is a partner in solving tough problems to keep the Internet moving forward, you’ll fit right in.

P-1319 At Databricks, we are passionate about enabling data teams to 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 — and customer obsessed — we leap at every opportunity to solve technical challenges, from designing next-gen UI/UX for interfacing with data to scaling our services and infrastructure across millions of virtual machines. And we're only getting started. As a software engineer with a backend focus, you will work with your team to build infrastructure and products for the Databricks platform at scale. The impact you'll have: Our backend teams span many domains across our essential service platforms. For instance, you might work on challenges such as: Problems that span from product to infrastructure including: distributed systems, at-scale service architecture and monitoring, workflow orchestration, and developer experience. Deliver reliable and high performance services and client libraries for storing and accessing humongous amount of data on cloud storage backends, e.g., AWS S3, Azure Blob Store. Build reliable, scalable services, e.g. Scala, Kubernetes, and data pipelines, e.g. Spark, Databricks, to power the pricing infrastructure that serves millions of cluster-hours per day and develop product features that empower customers to easily view and control platform usage. What we look for: BS (or higher) in Computer Science, or a related field 7+ years of production level experience in one of: Java, Scala, C++, or similar language. Experience developing large-scale distributed systems. Experience working on a SaaS platform or with Service-Oriented Architectures. Good knowledge of SQL.

Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human Identity is the key to unlocking the potential of AI. Okta secures AI by building the trusted, neutral infrastructure that enables organizations to safely embrace this new era. This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world stakes. We are looking for builders and owners who operate with speed and urgency and execute with excellence. This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk. Staff Product Designer — AX & Growth (DLG) About the Role Auth0, part of Okta, is redefining identity for a world where users aren't only human. AI agents are beginning to sign up, authenticate, and act autonomously — and Auth0 is building the infrastructure and experience layer for that shift. This role is a foundational design hire on Auth0's India Design Team, part of the global design team. Working at the frontier of Agent Experience (AX) : designing for a largely headless, invisible-UI world where the "user" is often code acting with intent, not a person. You'll join a small pod of PMs and engineers actively defining Auth0's agentic vision from scratch — there's no existing pattern library, so you'll help create it: how agents sign up, authenticate, execute tasks, and how humans stay in control without micromanaging them. Alongside this, you'll own signup and onboarding design for a new customer: the AI-powered developer, whose workflows involve agents and automated tooling from day one. The same instincts that build trust for a human overseeing an agent also build trust for a developer signing up for a self-serve product. We're looking for a self-starter who generates their own hypotheses and builds the roadmap as they go. What You'll Do Agent Experience (AX) - Shape Auth0's agentic vision alongside a small, fast-moving team of PMs and engineers. - Define the "what" for agents — interaction models for sig

P-1416 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 7+ years of experience working in a related system Optional: PhD in databases or distributed systems About Dat
