The Platform Experience Backend team builds the APIs and durable workflows behind Splunk's data management products. We enable customers to route, transform, and process their data at the edge and in the cloud, and to store and query it at massive scale in a modern data lake. We're working on exciting, unannounced big data products that will expand what Cisco and Splunk customers can do with their data in AI workflows. We are a collaborative, high-performing group of engineers who value clean code, rigorous testing, and pragmatic architectural decisions.
