Senior Software Engineer at ClickHouse focusing on integrating Postgres with cloud solutions. Design and develop backend services to manage database clusters and enhance observability.
Responsibilities
Design and build backend services that orchestrate and manage database clusters in ClickHouse Cloud.
Extend our platform control plane — written in Ruby, Go, and TypeScript — to support new Postgres capabilities.
Contribute to PostgreSQL extensions and data plane agents, written in C, C++ or Rust.
Contribute to automation and tooling that simplify cluster provisioning, scaling, and lifecycle management.
Collaborate with infrastructure, SRE, and product teams to ensure operational excellence, performance, and reliability.
Develop APIs and integrations that expose new Postgres functionality to customers and internal systems.
Improve observability, deployment safety, and debugging workflows for database services.
Participate in design discussions, code reviews, and on-call rotations, contributing to the overall reliability and velocity of the team.
Operate with autonomy — identifying opportunities, driving execution, and delivering meaningful impact.
Requirements
6+ years in software engineering, ideally with experience building or operating database or cloud platform systems.
Deep understanding of Postgres — configuration, extensions, operations, and performance tuning.
Strong programming experience in one or several of Ruby, Go, Rust, C or Python (and willingness to work across languages).
Familiarity with cloud infrastructure, APIs, and automation tools (Terraform, Kubernetes, CI/CD).
Understanding of distributed systems, data replication, and service orchestration patterns.
Pragmatic, detail-oriented, and comfortable with both greenfield development and operational ownership.
Happy to contribute where needed — from backend APIs and platform automation to Postgres internals and debugging.
Strong communicator who works effectively across teams in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment.
You operate with a founder’s mindset — take initiative, move quickly, and care deeply about outcomes.
