We have an open headcount on my team at Databricks (Compute Lifecycle) for a senior or staff engineer! Typically this means 5+ years of experience. For this role, we're also looking for experience with distributed systems (and ideally experience running Kubernetes at scale). We're based out of San Francisco and Mountain View. Databricks has returned to office, so applicants must be able to commute to one of these two offices at least two days a week.
Databricks started out building a platform based on Apache Spark. Over the last few years, we've built an all encompassing platform for enterprises to make use of all structured and unstructured data. This includes tools to allow all users (technical or not) to quickly query and visualise data. Lately, we've integrated machine learning and generative AI technologies into the product - acquiring MosaicML last year, a leader in LLM infrastructure.
Our team maintains several systems that automate cluster provisioning at scale and allow us to manage hundreds of Kubernetes clusters that power Databricks' serverless products across all 3 major clouds. This includes heavy collaboration with MosaicML to support our new GenAI products.
Tech stack wise, we primarily use Go (for Kubernetes facing components) and Scala for Databricks' internal services. We're one of the biggest users of Cluster API, EKS and AKS.
This team is one of the strongest I've been fortunate to work with and the complexity of the environments we work in and the products we support means that there's a lot to learn!
If you're interested and could be a fit, please send me a resume at sunil.shah@databricks.com.
Airbnb Infrastructure is hiring for several key positions - we're looking for talented engineers across a wide variety of domains to build the platform that supports our mission to create a world where anyone can belong anywhere.
Airbnb is at a pivotal point in its growth and maturity as an engineering organisation. We run some of the largest Kubernetes clusters in the industry, have open sourced some extremely successful data tools (e.g. Superset), and are rapidly adopting newer technologies like Flink and Istio.
We use Terraform, AWS and Chef extensively. My team (Cloud Infra > Compute Infra) mostly uses Golang but it helps to have familiarity with (or a lack of fear of) Java and Ruby, which most of our product teams use.
We joined the CNCF end user community last year, and shared our perspective on the Kubernetes ecosystem as part of a panel discussion [1].
I’m specifically helping hire for our Cloud Infra team, looking for engineers with experience with:
+ Kubernetes
+ Istio/other service meshes
+ Golang
+ Disaster recovery
+ Large scale infrastructure (think Borg, or Tupperware)
+ Load balancing and edge/cloud networking
+ CDNs
Note that these positions are for experienced engineers and it helps if you have 5+ years of experience and/or have acted in a similar capacity in prior roles.
Check out all open roles and apply on our site [2]. Note that most of these Cloud roles are not yet listed on our site. If preferable, you can also send me a brief note about why you'd be a good fit, a link to the role you're interested in, and a resume to sunil.shah@airbnb.com.

> Bloomberg says that early staffers “had an unusual compensation system” that multiplied staffers' salaries and bonuses based on the performance of the self-driving project. The payments accumulated as milestones were reached, even though Waymo remains years away from generating revenue. One staffer eventually “had a multiplier of 16 applied to bonuses and equity amassed over four years.” The huge amounts of compensation worked — for a while. But eventually, it gave many staffers such financial security that they were willing to leave the cuddly confines of Google.
