Job description
Ververica is the original creator of Apache Flink® and remains a core contributor to it. Flink is the leading open-source engine for stream and batch processing. It runs mission-critical workloads at Netflix, Alibaba, Amazon and Uber, as well as at banks, telcos and global enterprises.
We build Ververica Unified Streaming Data Platform, an enterprise-grade platform for real-time data on top of Flink. Backed by one of the world's largest tech companies, we combine open-source innovation with long-term stability.
WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS
Our customers run real-time pipelines that cannot stop: fraud detection, payments, telemetry, recommendations. When something breaks, you are the engineer who gets it running again.
As a Technical Support Engineer, you will solve real production problems on Kubernetes, in the cloud and inside Flink itself. You will work side by side with the engineers who build Flink, so every hard ticket is a chance to learn how a distributed system works under the hood.
This role suits someone who enjoys a good puzzle, likes helping people and wants to grow into a stream processing expert.
NICE TO HAVE
No one ticks every box. If you have some of these, tell us.
LOCATION AND WORKING HOURS
This is a remote role for someone based between UTC-4 and UTC-7. That covers US and Canadian Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific time, plus Latin American countries in the same range.
At Ververica, we believe innovation starts with diverse perspectives. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds. If you are passionate about helping customers succeed with real-time data, we would love to hear from you.
