## About the role

Every chart, insight, and experiment result a customer sees in Amplitude passes through the compute layer that this team owns. Our team sits between Amplitude's front-end analytics products/ rest APIs/ MCPs and Nova, our proprietary analytics database, and owns the compute API that translates a user's question into a fast, correct answer.

## What they're looking for

- Strong backend or distributed-systems engineering experience, ideally touching OLAP databases, query engines, or data infrastructure
- Experience with SQL, query planning/execution, or building APIs that many other engineering teams depend on
- Comfort reasoning about tradeoffs between flexibility, performance, and ease of use and making deliberate calls between them
- A track record of owning ambiguous, cross-team projects end-to-end rather than just executing well-scoped tickets
- Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, this team's work only matters in the context of the products built on top of it
