Staff Software Engineer, Online Database Infrastructure - Ingestion

Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way.

The Community You Will Join :

  • The mission of the Ingestion team in the Online Database Infrastructure org is to provide a managed, reliable, performant and scalable platform for exporting data out of Airbnb’s online databases for offline processing. The team currently builds and operates two managed solutions - one for near real time access to change logs (CDC) and another to provide periodic mutation and full table snapshots.
  • As a member of this team you would be working with talented engineers on cutting edge technologies to help support Airbnb’s business. You will be the resident expert on the online data exports platform and guide and collaborate with our internal product teams to effectively use the platform.

The Difference You Will Make :

  • Be an expert in building and operating a data ingestion system that enables offline accessing and processing of online data at Airbnb in the form of (but not limited to) DB snapshots into the warehouse and near real time change data capture (CDC) events.
  • Be hands‑on (code, design, test) and collaborate with cross team partners (internal customers, dependencies and leadership) to deliver on multi-month projects in a timely fashion.
  • Lead a team of developers to deliver multi‑quarter cross functional projects.
  • Stay up-to-date with the latest developments in data ingestion systems and evaluate and incorporate new technologies and methodologies to improve the existing data ingestion architecture / solution.
  • Influence the team’s and organization’s long‑term roadmap and strategy.
  • Mentor and coach team members, providing guidance and support to enhance their skills and technical standards in the team.
  • Raise operational standards by effectively and proactively identifying, debugging and fixing operational issues. Be part of the oncall rotation for the Ingestion team.
  • Your Expertise :

  • 9+ years of experience building and operating large scale core backend distributed systems.
  • Hands on experience building and operating large scale online distributed databases and offline data ingestion pipelines to export data from underlying storage. Familiarity with internals of distributed databases and offline data warehouse systems is a must.
  • Strong cross team collaboration and written and verbal communication skills and capable of influencing stakeholders and conveying complex technical concepts effectively.
  • Ability to provide technical leadership, mentorship and guiding teams on best practices around data ingestion systems.
  • Ability to own and dive deeply in a complex code base and knack for writing clean, readable, testable, maintainable code.
  • Considerable experience working in either Java, Scala or Python and familiarity with SPARK and Kafka.
  • Demonstrate strong ownership and ability to effectively plan multi month projects and deliver them in a timely manner.
