Aerospike is the real-time database for mission-critical use cases and workloads, including machine learning, generative, and agentic AI. Aerospike powers millions of transactions per second with millisecond latency, at a fraction of the total cost of ownership compared to other databases.

Global leaders, including Adobe, Airtel, Barclays, Criteo, DBS Bank, Experian, Grab, HDFC Bank, PayPal, Sony Interactive Entertainment, The Trade Desk, and Wayfair, rely on Aerospike for customer 360, fraud detection, real-time bidding, profile stores, recommendation engines, and other use cases. 

 At Aerospike, we dream big and deliver even bigger. Our mission is to unleash the power of the world’s real-time data with a database built for infinite scale, speed, and sustainability.

If you're ready to shape the future of data, join us.

We’re growing fast and investing deeply in our Cloud Platform—a multi-cloud, multi-tenant platform that brings the power of Aerospike to customers with maximum simplicity, speed, and scale.

We’re looking for a Staff Backend Engineer to join our Cloud team and play a key role in designing and building the next generation of our global platform services. Your work will directly shape the way global enterprises deploy, manage, and scale Aerospike in the cloud—and will help push the boundaries of what real-time, always-on systems can achieve.

What You'll Do

  • Drive real impact. Build core backend systems foundational to our multi-cloud SaaS platform—helping customers deploy and manage high-performance, globally distributed applications with ease.
  • Collaborate deeply. Partner with product managers, architects, QA, and other developers to move fast on a strategic roadmap that reflects real-world customer needs.
  • Build for scale. Design and optimize distributed, multi-tenant, auto-scalable services that can handle extreme workloads.
  • Elevate quality. Champion engineering best practices, code quality, and test coverage to ensure our systems “just work,” even under demanding conditions.
  • Innovate boldly. Bring curiosity and creativity to the table—prototype rapidly, experiment, and lead with technology to advance our platform.

Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and support microservices powering our SaaS and cloud platform.
  • Communicate progress regularly with stakeholders, project managers, QA teams, and peers against the long-term roadmap.
  • Write production-grade code and tests, resolve issues, and analyze performance bottlenecks.
  • Develop automated unit and integration tests to ensure business needs are met.
  • Support production services in an on-call capacity, including incident response and remediation.
  • Contribute to the design and delivery of major features and services, from concept through launch.

Required Skills & Qualifications

  • 5+ years of relevant experience in backend engineering.
  • Solid foundation in computer science, algorithms, and distributed systems.
  • Hands-on experience with microservice development.
  • Proficient in at least one statically typed back-end programming language: Go, Java, Kotlin, or Scala.
  • Experience with Kubernetes and container-based development/deployment.
  • Strong familiarity with major public cloud providers (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
  • Experience with Git and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Proven ability to support production services in on-call rotations, including incident response.
  • Strong understanding of data storage, replication, modeling, and access patterns with both NoSQL and relational databases.
  • Technical knowledge of authentication, authorization, and encryption practices.

Preferred Skills & Qualifications

  • Go expertise for microservice development.
  • Experience with Temporal (workflow orchestration).
  • Experience with Terraform and other DevOps/IaC tooling (e.g., Ansible).
  • Experience developing Kubernetes Operators.
  • Familiarity with modern observability platforms (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry).
  • Experience with NoSQL database development.

Relevant Industry Background
