Company mission

Aerospike's mission is to unleash the power of the world's real-time data.

Role

Who you are

  • Experienced Java developer (3 to 5 years minimum)
  • Experience building client software with a good understanding of how to achieve high performance and scalability
  • Experience with gRPC and/or wire-level protocols

Desirable

  • Experience with Ruby and/or Python
  • Experience using common Java frameworks (e.g. Spring, Hibernate, MyBatis)
  • Systems background (OS and/or database)

What the job involves

  • At Aerospike, we have developed a flexible distributed database with exceptional speed, low latencies, and the ability to easily scale from Gigabytes to Petabytes
  • This is a modern database optimized for the latest advancements in SSD and in-memory tech (such as Intel’s Optane persistent memory.)
  • The Client Engineering team leads the effort to provide native developer APIs and supervises contributions from the community
  • Team members also support other product engineering groups within Aerospike, such as connectors, tools and frameworks
  • Serve as a developer for the Java and Ruby clients

Our take

Aerospike is a high speed data platform that promises to reduce server footprints by up to 80%. Aimed at satisfying large-scale data platform requirements, clients include PayPal, Verizon Media, European Central Bank, and Snap Inc.

While there are other data platforms available such as DataStax, Redis Labs and Couchbase, Aerospike sets itself apart through offering no trade off between cost and a high level of performance and consistency on a large scale.

As massive petabyte data sets become the norm for large businesses, Aerospike realises the need for systems that can handle this in real time. Its release of Aerospike Connect brings connectivity of Aerospike Database 5 with a range of big name open source frameworks such Apache Spark, Presto, Pulsar, Kafka and JMS - making Aerospike products more useful to a wider client set.
