What we do

ParadeDB is a transactional alternative to Elasticsearch built on Postgres. We build state-of-the-art full-text search and columnar analytics inside Postgres as a Postgres extension.

Companies like Modern Treasury, BILT Rewards, Alibaba Cloud, and UnifyGTM use ParadeDB to:

• Eliminate ETL/change data capture tools
• Add transactional guarantees to their search indexes
• Perform JOINs on their search data

We're a small, focused team of engineers dedicated to creating an inclusive and enjoyable work environment. We’re distributed across the United States and Canada. We are a Series A company with a flat structure, strong investors, and lots of room for growth.

What we want

We’re looking for an infrastructure engineer to join our team full-time. The ideal candidate should have:

• A solid foundation in cloud infrastructure/architecture and Kubernetes
• Experience working with Kubernetes in a production environment (bonus points if you have experience working with CloudNativePG or Neon)
• Experience operating Postgres in a production environment (bonus point if you have experience working with Postgres features like logical replication and backups)
• Proficiency in infrastructure tooling like Terraform, Kubernetes, Helm, YAML, Bash/Python, etc.
• Experience engaging with customers directly in a solutions engineering/SRE-type role or working on a Bring-Your-Own-Cloud type of solution
• Experience supporting customers in a production environment
• Experience building robust CI/CD pipelines for continuous benchmarking, testing, and releasing
• Proficiency in cloud programming with Go
• Familiarity with Elasticsearch-type workloads or analytical databases is a plus

We're seeking someone creative, independent, and excited by difficult technical challenges who can teach us as much as they learn from us. The ideal candidate will bring thoughtful opinions to the team, be excited to engage with and learn from customers, and be willing to wear many hats.
