Senior Backend Engineer (Data Engine)

Upsolver for Data Lakes is what Oracle was for tables management: We create the next generation of Big Data management layer. Upsolver develops a platform that manages the entire cloud-based file system, inlet and output data channels. Simply put, when you need to deal with a vast amount of data, you need to stream it into cloud storage, re-format it, enrich it for queries and analytics, optimize it, archive it, and do it for any data source, data format, and for any query engine. This requires a lot of coding and then monitoring in production. For a developer or a data team, this is a lot of overhead.

Upsolver hides all this complexity. A developer can now use SQL to query information stream coming from Kafka, for example, or prepare it to an ad-hoc query engine like Presto, without writing a single line of code, and without managing anything in production.

Cool, isn’t it? With the great simplification for the customer, behind the scenes, we develop a real-time cloud-based file system management layer for big data environments.

Upsolver has top-notch engineering team which redefines the way data lakes manage the flow and of unstructured data.

If you want to work among the best developers who write a real-time, non-relational, data management layer, and you think you can scale up, we want you.
