The Role

Who we are

We're Redis. We built the product that runs the fast apps our world runs on. (If you checked the weather, used your credit card, or looked at your flight status online today, you’re welcome.) At Redis, you’ll work with the fastest, simplest technology in the business—whether you’re building it, telling its story, or selling it to our 10,000+ worldwide customers. We’re creating a faster world with simpler experiences. You in?

We are looking for a Principal Software Engineer to join the Redis Cluster team. 

As a member of the Core Platforms group, you will be responsible for the software behind the fastest NoSQL clusters on earth, supporting more than 200 million ops/sec at sub-millisecond latency with true linear scalability.

​Our ideal candidate is a strong individual who loves to work with a diverse team of bright and ambitious people. You are passionate about technology in general and specifically the challenges around cloud, performance, and distributed computing. You are a quick learner, always eager to learn and improve. You are able and willing to share your knowledge and guide other team members.

If you’re all that, fun to work with, and want to make an impact while contributing to a wildly successful startup, then this is the right challenge for you.

What will you do:

  • Develop the next generation of Redis Enterprise products and solutions.
  • Own and lead Redis Enterprise features end-to-end, from design through development and deployment.
  • Debug, maintain, and improve the Redis Cluster infrastructure, enhancing its ability to handle many thousands of databases with millions of requests per second.
  • Provide technical leadership and guidance to other team members.
  • Participate in various open-source projects that Redis maintains and/or contributes to.
  • Work closely with team members, Product, DevOps, Support, Customer Success, and other R&D teams.

What will you need:

  • 10 or more years of hands-on backend development experience working on a large-scale production-grade system (preferably in Python/Go)
  • Excellent coding skills with a good understanding of large-scale architecture and design patterns
  • Experience with cloud computing and operating systems (specifically Linux)
  • A B.Sc. in Computer Science or Software Engineering/equivalent experience
  • Self-directed, ambitious, and eager to learn new things. Passionate about technology (always learning about new tech)

Extra Great:

  • ​Experience designing and implementing distributed systems—a BIG advantage
  • Experience with NoSQL databases (especially Redis)
  • Experience with Python and Go
  • Experience with at least one of the big cloud platforms
  • Have participated in an end-to-end big data and/or large-scale performance challenge

We give back to our employees: 

Our culture is what makes Redis a fun and rewarding place to work. To support you at work and beyond, we offer all our Israel team members fantastic benefits and perks:

  • Competitive salaries and equity grants
  • Flexible working options
  • Frequent team celebrations and recreation events
  • Lunch stipends
  • Home internet & phone stipend
  • Gym membership for a healthy mind and body
  • Learning and development opportunities
  • Ability to influence a high-performance company on its way to IPO
