Build the Future of AI-Native Databases | Staff Engineer – Bangalore

india, Karnataka, Bengaluru

Full–time

Posted on: 2 days ago

AI is changing how databases need to work — and we're building the systems to make that happen.

We're forming a brand-new Specialized Indexing team within our SQL organization to take database indexing far beyond traditional relational workloads. If you've ever wanted to work at the intersection of distributed databases and AI-native applications, this is that role.

What you'll build:

  • High-performance vector, full-text, and geospatial indexing systems

  • Hybrid search capabilities combining vector similarity and text-based search

  • Production-grade features integrated directly into a distributed SQL engine

  • What we're looking for:

  • 10+ years building large-scale, production systems

  • Strong background in backend/systems programming — Go, C/C++, or Rust preferred

  • Hands-on experience with indexing or query execution (vector, text, or spatial)

  • Deep knowledge of data structures, algorithms, and distributed systems

  • Genuine curiosity about AI-driven and hybrid data workloads

You'll join a small, autonomous team with high ownership, global collaboration, and the chance to shape the future roadmap of a cutting-edge database platform.
