Responsibilities
Design and build confluent marketplace platform services that power listing management, entitlement, provisioning, and lifecycle events for partner offerings.
Implement end-to-end flows for how customers discover, evaluate, and adopt marketplace solutions directly from Confluent Cloud.
Integrate with internal and external systems (e.g., billing, identity, metering, partner APIs) to provide a seamless marketplace experience.
Develop tools and APIs for partners to onboard, validate, publish, and maintain their listings with clear quality and compliance guardrails.
Own the lifecycle of features and services from design and prototyping through rollout, observability, and continuous improvement.
Collaborate closely with Product, Partner Engineering, and GTM teams to translate partner and customer needs into platform capabilities that scale.
Contribute to engineering standards and architecture for the marketplace, ensuring services are maintainable, secure, and resilient.
Participate in design and code reviews, help shape technical direction, and mentor peers where appropriate.
Requirements
Strong backend engineering experience, ideally in Java (experience with Go, Python, or similar languages is a plus).
Solid understanding of distributed systems and service design, including APIs, data modeling, and asynchronous workflows.
Experience building productized internal or external platforms (marketplaces, app stores, partner platforms, or similar).
