We make TiDB, an open source scale-out database that is consistent, always online, and MySQL compatible. Our underlying distributed key-value layer, TiKV, is a CNCF project. We have a lot of interesting challenges to keep scaling for our existing users with 100+ TB of data and expanding to help users in new ways with their database needs. I am part of the international team based out of San Mateo (bay area). Our small team is oriented to being remote, and we travel periodically to meet in person. Our tech stack is Rust, Go, Kubernetes, and TiDB itself! You can work on a serverless cloud service, do low-level database hacking, or work directly with customers depending on your existing experience. I like working on TiDB because I get to be a part of a big change going on in databases and work with a skilled team. On a daily basis I learn new things about databases and the cloud, but I also get to apply my existing experiences to have a big impact.
