Your role and responsibilities

Join us in building the next generation of Confluent Cloud, shaping how the world builds data systems. We help organizations put data in motion: capturing, transporting, and transforming it to meet the growing demand for real-time information.

Behind this experience is the Cloud Control Plane, the globally distributed systems that manage customer resources across clouds and regions. We provide the shared capabilities that help Confluent teams manage resources consistently, including and services for resource metadata and API management, as well as customer-facing capabilities for resource management.

As a Principal Engineer, you’ll shape the direction of these foundational systems, lead high-impact initiatives, and raise the bar for reliability, quality, and operations. You’ll work across engineering and product teams to advance our vision for resource management in Confluent Cloud, while helping engineers and technical leaders grow.

Lead large-scale, cross-organizational projects from design to delivery. Balance working broadly while keeping hands-on with our code and systems.

Coach and mentor engineers and others to develop talent and foster a supportive engineering culture

Partner across the company to understand and influence strategy and architecture in support of our vision for Confluent Cloud resource management

Required technical and professional expertise

Extensive experience building and operating large-scale distributed systems, including systems that are globally distributed with high availability

Strong fundamentals in distributed systems, including consistency and coordination, performance and operational characteristics and real-world settings

A track record of setting technical strategy, partnering across engineering and product teams to set direction, and executing on a roadmap

Strong customer focus and ability to work closely with product teams to shape our overall roadmap

A collaborative approach to leadership and strong communication skills

Preferred technical and professional experience

Experience building multi-cloud systems, cloud control planes, or distributed key-value stores or databases

An understanding and real-world experience with Kubernetes internals or contributions to the Kubernetes codebase

Curiosity, thoughtfulness and experience building and operating systems with AI-driven tools and approaches

Experience with data streaming systems, such as Kafka and Flink
