About the role
The Observability and Core Services team owns the platform foundation that Dremio is built on — and that every product team depends on to ship. As a core member, you'll design and deliver the critical building blocks: telemetry, messaging, KV store and persistence, application frameworks, caching, coordination, and events and audit services, along with Dremio's growing integration with the SAP platform. When these systems are rock-solid, the whole engineering org moves faster.
You'll work at the intersection of DevOps/SRE and application development — designing solutions that are highly scalable and genuinely easy to use — while collaborating with core product teams to ship safely and partnering with Field teams to support customers at enterprise scale.
This is also where Dremio's hardest distributed systems problems live. You'll tackle consistent persistence, distributed caching, networking, containerized services, private links, Terraform-driven infrastructure, and access control at scale. The scope is broad by design: we believe the best platform engineers are the ones who can hold the full picture and own problems end-to-end.
You'll grow by taking on complex challenges, shipping high-quality systems at massive scale, and building the kind of foundational work that compounds across everything Dremio builds.
What you'll be doing
Build and own an observability platform that ingests customer telemetry — events, logs, and traces — using OpenTelemetry and industry best practices
Deliver dashboarding and visualization capabilities that give Support and Field teams real-time visibility into system health, emerging issues, and trends — and help customers stay resilient at scale
Design and implement a notification and alerting system driven by telemetry data and heuristics with AI agents and lakehouse intelligence
Write infrastructure-as-code with Helm and Terraform to simplify deployment and operations within Dremio Software
Build and maintain application frameworks that standardize development across teams — tackling cross-cutting challenges like dependency injection and role-based access control at scale
Partner with our SRE and DevOps teams to define best practices and deliver standardized solutions for common engineering workflows
Engage directly with the developer community to understand their pain points and turn those insights into platform improvements
Help define and deliver roadmap and integration milestones with SAP HANA/BDC platform to deliver a cohesive experience
What we're looking for
Bachelor's, Master's, or higher in Computer Science or a related field
5+ years of software engineering experience
2+ years experience using Java
2+ years hands-on with infrastructure-as-code (Helm, Terraform, or equivalent)
Deep experience with a major cloud platform ( AWS , Azure, or GCP)
Hands-on with OpenTelemetry or comparable observability platforms
Experience with Kubernetes and Docker
Requirements
- ·Experience building SaaS microservices and distributed systems
- ·Hands-on with multi-threaded or asynchronous programming models
- ·Proficient with NoSQL databases (MongoDB, RocksDB) or Redis
- ·Background in CI/CD tooling (Jenkins, ArgoCD)
- ·Other programming languages such as C++, Go, Python, Node.js, Rust, etc
