We’re not just building better tech. We’re rewriting how data moves and what the world can do with it. With Confluent, data doesn’t sit still. Our platform puts information in motion, streaming in near real-time so companies can react faster, build smarter, and deliver experiences as dynamic as the world around them. It takes a certain kind of person to join this team. Those who ask hard questions, give honest feedback, and show up for each other. No egos, no solo acts. Just smart, curious humans pushing toward something bigger, together. One Confluent. One Team. One Data Streaming Platform. ABOUT THE ROLE: We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer to work on various features and improvements in the Apache Kafka software. In this role, you will work closely with the Apache community as well as senior engineers on the team to build features, work on Kafka improvements and help review designs..

You will contribute to the performance improvements, operational aspects and innovate the stack. WHAT YOU WILL DO: As a Staff Software Engineer, you will be a technical leader whose work significantly impacts the product, engineering organization, and customer success. - Collaborate with the Apache Kafka community via KIPs, code contributions, reviews, and technical discussions; represent Confluent’s interests while keeping the broader ecosystem in mind. - Drive projects that have high complexity requiring technical acumen, a high level of judgement and able to deal with ambiguity. - Be a force multiplier and show strong ability to mentor and grow the team with guidance on strong design principles and software architecture. - Insist on high standards for the quality of software the team is developing. - Communicate with product management and engineering leaders on the roadmap, understand the specs and the product interfaces
