Founding Engineer (Distributed Systems)

Artie is an innovative startup revolutionizing real-time database replication for databases and data warehouses. Founded in 2023 and backed by notable investors including Pathlight, General Catalyst, and prominent angels from companies like Mode, Dropbox, and more, Artie has quickly scaled to process over 10 billion rows monthly within their first year.

As a Founding Engineer focusing on Distributed Systems, you'll join a small, dynamic team in San Francisco as their third founding engineer. This role offers a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of data engineering, distributed systems, and infrastructure. You'll be instrumental in building critical features like column encryption, analytics portals, and schema change alerts, while also optimizing pipeline efficiencies and developing CDC connectors.

The position requires someone who can think strategically about distributed systems while remaining hands-on with implementation. You'll work with a modern tech stack including Go, TypeScript, Kafka, and Kubernetes, building solutions that leverage change data capture (CDC) and stream processing to achieve sub-minute latency in data transfers.

This is an exceptional opportunity for an experienced engineer who wants to make a significant impact in the data infrastructure space. You'll work directly with founders, interact with customers, and help shape the future of real-time data streaming. The role offers competitive compensation including both salary and equity, reflecting the founding nature of the position.
