Join us as a Java Software Developer in Helsinki or Lisbon , and this is some of what you'll be doing:
Developing different parts of the database, such as query engine, encoding/decoding, storage layer, concurrency and parallelism, query API, transactions, vectorization, optimizations, parsing, clustering etc. Profiling and improving performance Implementing new features based on business needs. Example: if data integrity in system integrations requires a new compare-and-set operation, then we implement it.

Emphasizing concurrency, parallelization, functional and immutable paradigms, and efficient memory usage, you'll thrive in our multi-core environment. Experience in developing database systems is considered a bonus Passion for implementing complex algorithms in Java and tackling non-trivial problems in a performant way. Solid understanding of data structures and their impact on CPU and memory usage (pros and cons different data structures have when it comes to CPU and memory usage and how to measure it) Experience with large databases is also valuable. Understand the importance of writing good covering tests and doing thorough code reviews Eagerness to learn and an open-minded attitude.
