Software Engineer - New York, United States - MotherDuck
Description
Job Description
Job DescriptionAbout MotherDuckDon't let the quirky name fool you We're on a mission to radically transform the data analyst user experience. We think we can empower and delight analysts using a novel cloud architecture built on top of DuckDB, an open source foundation with a vibrant community. We're rapidly driving towards general availability and need your help to create many "aha moments" for our users. Our team is a diverse mix of passionate, collaborative, and empathetic data industry veterans from Google, Amazon, Meta, Snowflake, SingleStore, Databricks, and the like.
At MotherDuck, the Database team is responsible for building the DuckDB-based compute layer and integrating it to work seamlessly as an extension to DuckDB. We run DuckDB locally in users' machines, on the edge, and in the cloud. The scope of work will span running locally in users' machines embedded in Python, CLI, or via WASM in the users' browser as well as on our cloud servers.. As a Software Engineer on our team, you will help design and build our systems, gain thorough understanding on how DuckDB (and databases in general) work, and bridge the gap between an extremely efficient SaaS platform and blazingly fast local computation. You will be joining a small team with a big vision, your expertise in database architecture and optimization will be instrumental in achieving our vision to "make the easy things easy, and the impossible things possible".
Core ResponsibilitiesIf this role sounds appealing to you, but you're missing some of the requirements or don't quite think you're qualified, please apply anyway. We believe in building a diverse team and encourage applicants from underrepresented groups in technology. We will strongly consider applicants who bring many of the requirements plus have other experiences that complement their qualifications. Join us on our mission to revolutionize the data analyst user experience
Compensation Range: $140K - $275K
