Jobs in Berlin, Germany

About the role

This role is ideally based in Amsterdam or Berlin, but we are also open to great candidates remotely in Europe.

What you'll bring

• You've built and shipped complex backend systems, and you know what great looks like.
• You're fluent in a backend language like C++, Rust, Java, or similar systems languages, and you're comfortable working close to the metal. (C++ and Rust are the biggest plus here, and we love a great Java engineer too.)
• A good foundation in query engines, execution plans, indexing, and performance optimization techniques.
• You've worked with cloud infrastructure, networking, and building low-latency distributed systems.
• You can scope and lead projects that span multiple collaborators and cross-functional dependencies.
• You take pride in clear thinking, careful design, and thoughtful tradeoffs.
• You're comfortable mentoring peers and helping build a collaborative, high-agency environment.
• You enjoy engaging with the wider community, whether that's open-source conversations or working directly with DuckDB Labs.
• Hands-on experience with DuckDB is a huge plus, no matter what level you're coming in at.
