Founding Software Engineer at PgDog

Hey! PgDog is a tiny database startup in SF. We’re scaling the world’s most popular database, PostgreSQL. PgDog is in production, used by dozens of companies, large and small. The problem is big, but so is the opportunity, and we’re hiring! The jack of all trades. Rust, Postgres, infrastructure (you don’t mind Kubernetes too much), networking, distributed systems, and so much more. You’ll build features that will go directly into our customers hands, the day you ship them. With great power comes great responsibility, of course. You’re meticulous, detail-oriented and are not afraid to take calculated risks. You write tests because you want to make sure the thing works, not to check a box. You’re not afraid to run code in production, on real data; after all, that’s the only way to know something works. You’ll fix a bug or ship a cool feature. We’ll give it to one of our users or customers to try right away. You’ll get acquainted with pretty much all of our code. You’ll start coming up with your own bug fixes and features. You’re designing our roadmap. You’re contributing to everything we’re doing: coding, talking with customers, and even finding us more! Things we badly want to build
