Rust Engineer - Query Engine

Join a team building one of the most advanced open-source data processing platforms in the world. We are rethinking how data is queried and processed, creating a seamless experience from local development to production-scale workloads without the need to rewrite code. Our framework is rapidly growing in adoption and plays a central role in the daily workflows of a global community of developers and data practitioners.

What you’ll do

• Define the characteristics of modern query engines, including streaming, distributed, and in-memory execution
• Identify high-impact areas to improve performance, consistency, and maintainability
• Switch between designing and hands-on implementing new systems
• Ship code to millions of users and bring cutting-edge ideas into production

What we’re looking for

• Familiarity with query execution models (e.g. vectorized execution, pipelining)
• Familiarity with query optimization techniques
• Experience with a low-level programming language (preferably Rust)
• Strong fundamentals in computer science
• Ability to work with autonomy and ownership in a small, collaborative team
