Full description
Coralogix is a modern, full-stack observability platform transforming how businesses process and understand their data. Our unique architecture powers in-stream analytics without reliance on expensive indexing or hot storage. We specialize in comprehensive monitoring of logs, metrics, traces and security events with features such as APM, RUM, SIEM, Kubernetes monitoring and more, all enhancing operational efficiency and reducing observability budget by up to 70%.
About the Role
We are looking for a Backend / Data Engineer to join our Core Data Pipeline team. In this role, you will be responsible for building and scaling the engine that processes Coralogix’s high-throughput, real-time telemetry data.
Our pipeline handles billions of events per second, performing real-time processing, data enrichment, and other transformations. If you thrive on solving high-scale, low-latency distributed systems challenges - this is the place for you.
What You’ll Do
- High-Scale Engineering: Design, build, and maintain our central data processing pipeline, handling massive volumes of logs and traces at extreme scale.
- Transform & Enrich: Architect real-time stream processing systems to perform complex data transformations and enrichments in real time.
- Performance & Efficiency: Optimize system throughput, reduce memory footprints, and minimize latency across distributed clusters.
- Architecture & Reliability: Take full ownership of feature lifecycles - from design and system architecture to production monitoring and resilience.
Our Stack
- Scala, Rust, Node.js
- Kafka
- Kafka Streams / Akka Streams
- ClickHouse, Redis
- Kubernetes
- AWS
