Job description

Yugabyte is the company behind YugabyteDB, the AI-ready, multi-modal, distributed PostgreSQL database for cloud-native apps. Trusted by industry leaders including Shopify, Paramount+, GM, Kroger, Fiserv, and NPCI, YugabyteDB has been deployed in over 100 countries and powers more than 5 million clusters worldwide.
Together, our hard-working team of experts and our industry-leading technology are uniquely positioned to meet the demands of modern workloads: geo-distributed, ultra-resilient, and built to scale without limits.
Our Yugabeings (distributed, like our database) span 12+ countries and multiple time zones, sharing expertise from diverse backgrounds and industries.
Staff Engineer - Languages & Relational Technologies (LRT)
Role Overview
As a Staff Engineer on the Languages & Relational Technologies (LRT) team, you will help design, build, and scale core database features that power YugabyteDB's SQL layer. You will collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to solve complex problems affecting distributed query planning, execution, and performance, ensuring YugabyteDB remains robust, reliable, and performance at scale.
Key Responsibilities
  • Lead the design, development, testing, and release of new database features and enhancements in YugabyteDB.
  • Write high-quality C/C++ code (and contribute in other languages as needed) with comprehensive automated tests; participate actively in code reviews.
  • Identify and implement performance improvements - including plan optimization, batching/parallelism, and advanced push-downs to data nodes.
  • Improve database scalability and throughput as cluster sizes and transaction volumes grow.
  • Contribute to the open source YugabyteDB project and help strengthen our distributed SQL capabilities across releases.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve correctness, stability, and performance issues in complex distributed query planning and execution paths.
  • Mentor and influence other engineers in best practices for database internals, distributed systems, and performance-oriented software development.
Required Qualifications
  • 8+ years of professional experience in software engineering, with a strong foundation in compiled languages such as C/C++.
  • Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in Computer Science (or related field), or equivalent practical experience.
  • Deep understanding of systems engineering fundamentals, including operating systems, distributed systems, and databases.
  • Experience with database internals, compilers, or query planning/optimization is a strong plus.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to operate effectively in a collaborative, distributed team environment
Preferred Skills
  • Experience building large-scale distributed systems and transactional engines.
  • Familiarity with PostgreSQL internals or other relational database engines.
  • Contributions to open source database or systems projects.
  • Prior leadership in technical architecture, performance tuning, and mentoring engineers.

The cash compensation for this role is market competitive, with a range of USD 150,000 - USD 250,000, inclusive of variable/incentive for some roles. As well as equity (when applicable), and benefits including health plans, retirement plans, and unlimited paid time off (PTO).
