The Role
We’re hiring for an experienced software architect excited about joining a small, dynamic startup passionate about data engineering and distributed systems. As a solutions architect, you will gather requirements based on client input, propose solutions that match Wallaroo technology with existing client infrastructure, and communicate requirements to client-facing engineers and internal Wallaroo Labs stakeholders.
About You
You have a track record of architecting solutions that exceed client expectations, strong communication skills for both technical and non-technical audiences, and experience working directly with clients, whether external or internal. You have taken an active role in documentation and process development. You should have some degree of familiarity with streaming data processing, Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, and machine learning. You thrive in an environment where the long-term goals remain stable but day-to-day needs may change quickly. You are able to work with a diverse range of people, you are committed to continual learning, and you value sharing your knowledge with the team. Our team is distributed across the world, so we're looking for strong communicators who are self-motivated and able to work both collaboratively and independently.
A “Typical” Day
You may never experience a "typical" day, but on any given day you will do some of these things:
- Meet with clients to discuss their needs
- Work with project managers to define success criteria for client engagements
- Work with engineers to break down high-level architectural designs into units of engineering work that can be estimated
- Communicate project architecture and requirements to internal and external stakeholders
About Us
For information on our engineering values, please visit wallaroolabs.com/engineering-values.
Wallaroo Labs wants to enable organizations to harness the power of data to realize their boldest ideas, much faster, and with greater efficiency than ever before - all without any data engineering.
Our goal is to deploy and operate high-performance computing infrastructure so customers don't have to. That’s why we’re building next-generation tools like Wallaroo, a highly efficient stream-processing engine that scales to volumes that traditional big data solutions can’t.
Our technology runs as a service inside a client’s own environment, whether in any cloud, on- premise, or at the edge, and plays nicely with modern data, messaging analytics, and machine learning ecosystems.
We believe this is a $40B+ market opportunity and we aim to take a good chunk of it. We’re a seed-stage company that’s raised $6M from some of the best enterprise software investors in NYC, and we’re looking for dedicated people to grow our team and our business, enhance our culture and contribute great ideas.
We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity in our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
