## About the role

We're hiring a Staff Software Engineer to own Commure's data warehouse platform end-to-end. You'll design, build, and operate every layer of the stack: The core stack today: Debezium for CDC, StarRocks as our MPP query and serving engine, and dbt for transformation and modeling. This is a hands-on IC role with broad scope. You'll make architectural calls, write the code that matters most, and set the patterns other teams build on.

## What they're looking for

- 6+ years of software engineering experience, with significant time building or operating data platforms at scale
- Experience across the modern data stack: CDC (Debezium or equivalent), streaming (Kafka, Redpanda), data lake formats (Iceberg, Delta, Hudi), an MPP or lakehouse query engine (StarRocks, ClickHouse, Trino, Snowflake, Databricks), and dbt
- Fluent in SQL, schema design, query optimization, and reasoning about cost and latency trade-offs on large datasets
- Experience running production data infrastructure (orchestration, observability, on-call, data quality, and incident response)
