About the role

As a member of the Platform & Partner Integrations team, you’ll drive the design and evolution of critical platform capabilities that power Dremio at scale across containerized, hybrid, and on-premises environments. You’ll build extensible, resilient, and high-performance systems that enable seamless partner integrations, amplifying Dremio’s reach while upholding the reliability and operational excellence our customers expect.

Leveraging deep expertise in infrastructure, networking, and containerization technologies, you will architect secure, scalable, and production-hardened systems designed for complex, distributed environments. You will collaborate closely with core product engineering teams to ensure new features and architectural changes are delivered consistently and safely across diverse deployment models and partner ecosystems.

  • Partner with external platform architects to identify integration requirements and translate security, networking, and infrastructure constraints into robust platform capabilities.
  • Architect and build resilient, production-grade solutions that operate seamlessly within diverse partner ecosystems.
  • Design, develop, and maintain automated deployment and integration frameworks that enable consistent, repeatable delivery of Dremio across environments.
  • Partner with product management to align platform capabilities with customer needs, roadmap priorities, and commercial objectives.
  • Develop core product capabilities for cluster lifecycle management, observability, usage and cost reporting, and operational supportability.
  • Lead cross-functional collaboration with internal architects and engineering teams to ensure features ship safely and perform reliably across diverse deployment models and partner ecosystems.
  • Take technical ownership of complex integration initiatives, and when needed, lead development efforts beyond the immediate team to close capability gaps.
  • Improve platform scalability, performance, and operability through proactive design reviews, architectural improvements, and production hardening.
  • Drive automation-first practices, reducing operational overhead and improving deployment velocity and reliability.
  • Contribute to long-term platform architecture, ensuring extensibility to support future partner integrations and evolving infrastructure trends.

 

What we’re looking for

  • Bachelor's, Master's, or higher in Computer Science or a related technical field
  • 5+ years of relevant work experience
  • Strong experience with container orchestration tools, such as Kubernetes and Docker
  • Strong understanding of networking protocols like TCP/IP, DNS, HTTP, etc.
  • Proficient in Java, Python, Bash, and Javascript/React

 

Bonus points if you have

  • Hands-on experience with multi-threaded and asynchronous programming models
  • Extensive experience in distributed systems, concurrency control, data replication, networking, and storage systems
