About the role

Starburst is looking for strong Java engineers to work with our globally distributed engineering team on the core of Starburst's software. This role sits on the Control Plane team, whose mandate is to converge the control planes of our two flagship deployment models, self-managed Starburst Enterprise Platform (SEP) and fully managed Starburst Galaxy, into a single, unified platform.

What they're looking for

  • Design, develop, and maintain control plane services shared by Starburst Enterprise , Starburst Galaxy , and Trino
  • Own the reliability, scalability, and efficiency (performance/$) of the services you build - provisioning and upgrading APIs, cluster lifecycle management, and the operational tooling that runs them
  • Build for two very different operating models at once: a service Starburst operates at scale, and software our customers deploy and operate themselves across AWS, Azure, and GCP as well as on-premise
  • Provide considerate and timely review of your peers' pull requests and design proposals
  • Continuously improve our engineering processes, tests, and systems so the codebase and the team's productivity scale together
  • Collaborate with team members and other teams globally, and operate in a fast-paced environment
