Staff Software Engineer

Confluent

Remote · United StatesSalary not disclosedfull-timeConfluent Careers

You'll help build Confluent Cloud's AI capabilities — the layer that lets customers bring AI and AI agents capabilities directly to their real-time data. Instead of moving data out to a separate system to run inference or build an agent, our customers do it in place, on streaming data, as part of the same platform they already use to move and process events at scale.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build the backend services (primarily Go, Java, and Python) that run AI and model inference on real-time data.
  • Own features end to end — drafting the design, aligning stakeholders inside and outside the team, and driving the decision to a conclusion.
  • Make the technical calls on systems that span teams: model lifecycle, inference routing, and agent execution.
  • Own the quality of what you ship — code, test coverage, documentation, operability, and rollout safety. This is production infrastructure serving live inference, so reliability isn't an afterthought.
  • Make the engineers around you better through code review, design feedback, and being someone the team trusts with ambiguous, cross-cutting work.
  • Participate in on-call for the services your team owns, and help keep the team's processes and rituals healthy.
