About this role
Clari and Salesloft have merged and now build revenue software together, and this role is on the platform operations infrastructure team behind it. The work is database engineering at scale: designing and scaling Postgres, MySQL and Amazon Aurora alongside Cassandra and MongoDB to handle heavy ingestion and analytical load, and evaluating sharding strategies to distribute workloads across clusters. You would also own the backbone of production, including high availability, backups and disaster recovery, and build infrastructure as code so product teams can operate safely themselves. The posting describes the goal as a data platform as a service scaling to petabyte level. Good fit if you are a database or infrastructure specialist who wants ownership rather than ticket driven operations. One caution: read the merger note below.
Who this is for
Asks for 8+ years of experience building and managing large scale, business critical, high throughput stateful applications in the cloud on AWS or GCP. The posting looks for engineers passionate about database reliability, cloud automation and data integrity, and asks for excellent written and verbal communication with a comfort collaborating across time zones.
Day to day: design, build and scale relational systems including Postgres, MySQL and Amazon Aurora, and NoSQL systems including Cassandra and MongoDB, to meet ingestion and analytical demand; lead large cross functional projects tackling friction in data persistence, migration and scaling; architect scale out strategies including evaluating and implementing sharding technologies; build automation and tooling using infrastructure as code to reduce toil and let product teams operate reliably and securely; collaborate with architects, product development and data science on requirements and distributed system design; and maintain and grow data resources by owning the production backbone including high availability solutions, backups and disaster recovery.
Location and office reality: the posting states the location as India, hybrid, and says explicitly that this is a hybrid position requiring the ability to be onsite in the Bengaluru office as needed, and that candidates must be based in India. Note that the body separately describes a remote first culture, but the stated arrangement for this role is hybrid, so plan around Bengaluru.
No interview process is published.
Context worth knowing: the employer identity here comes from the job description text, which refers throughout to Clari and Salesloft as a combined company. Expect both names during recruiting.
Fit note: this is a technical leadership seat within an infrastructure team, described as an experienced backbone providing automation, capacity planning and database platform management, with no people management duties listed.
