Your opportunity

The Data, Identity, & API Platform group at New Relic builds the foundation for all of our products: data ingest, storage, and query. As an engineer working on NRDB, you'll be contributing directly to the proprietary telemetry database technology at the core of our business.

We own our software from top to bottom and are directly responsible for its quality and reliability. Each member of the team shares our pager rotation and will occasionally be on-call to respond to system failures; so we prioritize work that keeps the lights on and the pager quiet, in addition to the work that powers all of our new products and streams of data.

New Relic solves engineering challenges and works with data at a scale rarely matched in the industry. An ideal candidate for this position should have a solid understanding of software engineering fundamentals to build upon, as well as an aptitude for learning new technologies. If the idea of working on complex systems that process millions of messages per second and handle petabytes of data excites you, then you may be an excellent fit!


What you'll do



  • Develop new features with a focus on optimizing performance and efficiency
  • Collaborate with the team to implement scalable solutions and enhance application performance
  • Identifying and acting on opportunities to improve the reliability of our services


This role requires:



  • Demonstrated ability in software development.
  • Experience in high-throughput software development.
  • An understanding of Computer Science fundamentals is very important.
  • Our code is mostly written in Java. If you don't know Java, that's fine - but you should have experience with a couple other object oriented programming languages (C++, C#).
  • Ability to go deep on the command-line and fix things when they're broken.


Bonus points if you have



  • Experience developing and operating within a 24x7 SaaS business.
  • Experience or interest in database implementation.
  • Experience working in the public cloud and using Kubernetes for container orchestration.
  • Experience working in distributed teams. We are part of a group that is distributed across North America and Europe and an ability to work well asynchronously is critical.
