We are hiring across two closely aligned teams: Observability Platform and Internal Observability.\nTogether, these teams build and operate the systems behind ClickHouse’s internal observability and ClickStack Cloud. Our platforms process trillions of events per day, sustaining throughput in the hundreds of millions of events per second. The experience we gain operating observability at ClickHouse scale feeds directly back into the platform and product we provide to customers.\nThe Observability Platform team builds shared systems for telemetry ingestion, durable buffering, processing, storage, autoscaling, and service provisioning. The Internal Observability team operates ClickHouse’s company-wide observability platform and works with engineering teams to improve reliability, debugging, and operational efficiency.\nThis is a software engineering role at the intersection of distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, and production operations. You will build systems, operate what you build, respond to incidents, and turn recurring operational problems into durable software and automation.\nYour background may be in backend engineering, infrastructure, SRE, or systems engineering. What matters most is your ability to solve ambiguous production problems, make sound engineering tradeoffs, and take ownership from design through operation.\nWhat you’ll do\nDesign, build, and operate distributed systems that ingest, process, and store telemetry at very high scale.\n\nOwn the reliability, performance, capacity, and cost-efficiency of telemetry pipelines and storage systems.\n\nParticipate in the on-call rotation, help resolve production incidents, and drive root-cause fixes through to completion.\n\nBuild software and automation that eliminate repetitive operational work and make the platform easier to operate.\n\nIdentify architectural bottlenecks and help shape the roadmap for the next stage of scale.\n\nWork closely with product, infrastructure, and service teams across ClickHouse.\n\nContribute to architecture and design reviews and help raise engineering quality across the team.\n\nHow you work\nYou take ownership and proactively improve the systems around you.\n\nYou are comfortable debugging unfamiliar distributed systems in production.\n\nYou make pragmatic tradeoffs between reliability, performance, delivery speed, and cost.\n\nYou communicate clearly in a remote, async-friendly environment.\n\nYou prefer incremental delivery: ship a focused solution, validate it in production, and improve it based on evidence.\n\nYou address the underlying cause of operational problems rather than repeatedly treating the symptoms.\n\nTechnical experience\n5+ years of experience building and operating production systems at scale.\n\nStrong proficiency in Go.\n\nExperience building and operating services on Kubernetes.\n\nExperience with infrastructure-as-code and GitOps tooling such as Terraform, Helm, and Argo CD.\n\nProduction experience with at least one major cloud provider: AWS, GCP, or Azure.\n\nHands-on experience with telemetry systems such as OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, or comparable technologies.\n\nBonus points\nExperience with ClickHouse.\n\nExperience with high-throughput ingestion, streaming, queueing, or storage systems.\n\nExperience building multi-tenant cloud services.\n\nExperience optimizing infrastructure for both performance and cost.\n\nExperience with TypeScript.\n\nPerks\nFlexible work environment - ClickHouse is a globally distributed company and remote-friendly. We currently operate in over 25 countries.\n\nHealthcare - Employer contributions towards your healthcare.\n\nEquity in the company - Every new team member who joins our company receives stock options.\n\nTime off - Flexible time off in the US, generous entitlement in other countries.\n\nA USD$500 Home office setup if you’re a remote employee.\n\nGlobal Gatherings - We believe in the power of in-person connection and offer opportunities to engage with colleagues at company-wide offsites.\n\nCulture - We All Shape It\nAs part of a rapidly scaling start-up, you will be instrumental in shaping our culture.\nAre you interested in finding out more about our culture?
