Stardog, the leading Enterprise Knowledge Graph platform, turns data into knowledge to power more effective digital transformations. Industry leaders including Bosch, NASA, and Raytheon use Stardog to create a flexible data layer that can support countless applications. One of Fast Company's prestigious Most Innovative Companies, Stardog is a fast-growing venture-backed company headquartered in Arlington, VA with a globally distributed team.

We are looking for a Senior Engineer to join Stardog Engineering on our Cloud team.

The Stardog Platform serves as the backbone of many Fortune 500 companies, powering important data-driven initiatives in areas like smart search, helping fight infectious disease, and helping put man back on the moon. Stardog Cloud is a key component of our product vision and is increasingly the first thing people experience when using Stardog.

If you're into databases, Kubernetes, CDC, service-based architectures, query engines and optimization, and everything large-scale, we've got an endless supply of fun and challenging work in store for you. Work alongside Product and Engineering leaders to help define and build the vision for Stardog Cloud while working with cutting edge technology like Kubernetes, and of course, knowledge graphs.

As a part of the Cloud team, you will:
* Extend the Cloud application tier to create the foundation for new features.
* Work on the infrastructure of Stardog Cloud itself.
* Help maintain Cloud and keep it running; provide initial level of support for customer deployments in an on-call rotation

We are expecting to have significant experience with:
* Programming languages like Python, Golang, C++, or Java
* Kubernetes, containers, and Docker-based technologies
* AWS ecosystem, particularly EKS
* Git, Jenkins, CircleCI, or other CI/CD tools
* Declarative infrastructure tools, particularly Terraform

Things that are a plus:
* Experience building elastic and scalable APIs and micro-service architectures
* Experience with Azure, GKE.
* Experience operating a production SaaS product

We are a remote-first company. You should be comfortable with, and have experience working remotely. You must have strong communication skills as much of our interactions will be over email, chat, and PR where it's harder to get your point across. However, if you're in the DC area, we'd love to welcome you at HQ.

If you've had previous experience with graph-based technologies, in particular, the semantic technology stack, that's fantastic! If not, we'll welcome you to the world of graph, and the future of enterprise data management.

And while we would love to see a Computer Science, Software Engineering or related degree, we simply want good engineers who will work hard to solve interesting problems. Solid knowledge of data structures, algorithms, and software design, as well as a dedication to the craft is all that's really required.

If you want to learn about the kinds of scale challenges we're building for, read about our Trillion Edge graph. And If you are curious about what it's like to work here, check out a post from our CTO and co-founder that talks about our culture, or read the engineering team's blog.

Lastly, you'll get great benefits, a yearly continuing education stipend, flexible PTO options, and the ability to work whenever and wherever you prefer.
