Software Engineer, Managed Datastores - San Francisco, United States - Render
Description
At Render we are building a powerful, easy-to-use cloud platform to host anything online: from simple static sites to complex applications with dozens of microservices. Render offers the flexibility of traditional cloud providers without their complexity and maintenance headaches so developers and businesses can focus on building products instead of managing servers.
We're a talented and diverse group solving a problem faced by every development team. We iterate quickly while placing the utmost importance on user experience, quality, and reliability. We push ourselves to do better every day. Our organic, product-led growth has already attracted over a million developers. Customers include innovators like Mitchell Hashimoto, the cofounder of HashiCorp, climate unicorns like Watershed, and global enterprises like Red Bull. With our rapidly increasing revenue, we're on to something big.
Applying to Render
Render is scaling rapidly. Our customers have created hundreds of thousands of services on our platform, and the numbers continue to accelerate. Our customers trust us to deliver a secure, reliable and performant cloud — this is our top priority as a company.
We're looking for candidates with high integrity, low ego, and an insatiable drive to learn. We use reasoned discussion and constant feedback to improve as individuals and as a company. We cultivate mutual trust and respect, empowering us to debate ideas effectively and create the best outcomes for our customers and our team.
We especially encourage members of underrepresented groups in the tech community to apply and understand that not all successful candidates will meet each requirement listed.
Our interview process is unique to each role, and we value the candidate experience just as much as our customer experience. We hope your conversations with us reflect a thoughtful process that is illuminative, enjoyable, and respectful of your time.
About the Role
We are looking for an experienced backend software engineer with a specialization in Database-as-a-Service, building solutions that use open source databases to store and retrieve data. We are particularly interested in experience with running distributed self-serve systems on Kubernetes or supporting many different types of databases.
Render's Datastores team is building easy-to-start and easy-to-scale structured data storage products for our customers: product engineers. Our customers want to minimize their time managing their databases and focus on adding value to their products and businesses. We build powerful, flexible tools that scale with our customers needs with little effort from them. Render's Datastore products provide our customers optimization insights and advanced workflows when it becomes appropriate for them, without having to hire a DBA or operations team.
We give our users peace of mind and confidence that their data is in a reliable and secure product. Whether the user is creating their first PostgreSQL instance or has worked with databases for years, our interfaces will be intuitive and easy to use.
By joining us at an early stage, you will design and build the cloud infrastructure databases you've always wanted for yourself, and make decisions that will shape our product and company, directly impacting developers around the globe.
