Senior Software Engineer

Job description

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:

The Infrastructure team at Confluent is responsible for building and operating the foundation that powers Confluent Cloud. Our mission is to design scalable, reliable, and cost-efficient infrastructure to support mission-critical data streaming workloads. Whether it’s optimizing cloud networking, improving resource efficiency, or scaling distributed systems, our work directly impacts Confluent’s performance, reliability, and business growth.

We are looking for engineers with a passion for building and operating large-scale distributed systems in the cloud. This role provides an opportunity to work on complex infrastructure challenges across multiple domains, including storage, networking, compute, and security.

What You Will Do:

• Design, develop, and operate large-scale, high-performance infrastructure that powers Confluent Cloud.
