Practise the Senior Software Engineer, Cloud Platform - INDIA at StarTree interview free →At StarTree we're a group of passionate individuals that desire to improve the lives of many by developing tools and technologies that support availability and speed in the world of real-time analytics.
Our aim is to make it simple for every company to delight their users - external and internal - and create new revenue streams from their data, by building the world’s most comprehensive and accessible cloud analytics system.
About StarTree:
At StarTree, we are a group of passionate individuals who strive to make insights accessible to everyone. Founded by the creators of Apache Pinot®, we're building the real-time analytics platform behind it — software that lets companies derive advanced insights from real-time and historical data in one place.
Pinot powers hundreds of user-facing applications at companies including LinkedIn, Uber, Target, 7-Eleven, Etsy, and Walmart. StarTree Cloud delivers the same as a fully managed platform — so teams like Razorpay, Blinkit, Stripe, Wix, Rippling, together.ai, and Dialpad get real-time analytics at scale without managing the infrastructure.
About the Team:
The Cloud Platform team builds and operates StarTree Cloud — the resilient, auto-scaling platform that makes Apache Pinot available as a fully managed service. We use a single control plane to run and manage hundreds of fully automated Pinot clusters in production, spanning SaaS, BYOC and BYOK deployments across AWS, GCP and Azure.
The Cloud platform team is lean, fast-paced, and innovative, working with state-of-the-art technology while focusing on solving complex challenges at scale.
In this role, you will:
- Own the end-to-end development of features in the cloud control plane and data plane platform services, starting from idea to production launch
- Manage substantial Kubernetes workloads that span across all major cloud providers
- Collaborate with strong engineering and partner teams to deliver effective and scalable solutions for customers
- Mentor and grow engineers while learning from the experienced engineers around you
Skills & Experience
- Strong software engineering fundamentals and experience solving distributed systems problems at scale. Our services are primarily written in either Go or Java. Go experience would be preferred, not a hard requirement.
- Experience building cloud-based deployments, with working knowledge of container orchestration and infrastructure-as-code (Kubernetes, Terraform etc).
- Adaptability and versatility — willing to take on whatever matters most for the company and adjust to changing priorities of the business
- Curiosity, positivity, and resilience — comfortable navigating ambiguity and uncertainty while maintaining a constructive, problem-solving mindset.
- AI-first mindset - Comfortable developing with AI tools and eager to continuously learn and integrate AI into our engineering processes
- Open source contributions and / or blog posts are a plus
