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 to keep scaling for our existing users with 100+ TB of data and find ways to help them access it even faster. Our tech stack is Rust, Go, Kubernetes, and TiDB itself! You can work on making TiDB truly cloud native, do low-level database hacking, or something in-between depending on your existing experiences. I am part of the international team based out of San Mateo (SF Bay Area). Our small team is oriented to being remote, and we travel periodically to meet in person. 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.
