WHY BOX NEEDS YOU?
The Event Stream team's mission is to provide highly-available, consistent and easy-to-use services for near-realtime access to our users' data graphs. Developers at Box routinely face challenges of serving millions of requests per second, while providing enterprise-grade uptime, consistency and performance guarantees. Our goal is to let them focus on business logic, while we make sure the data layer lives up to their requirements. As a member of this team, you will have a unique opportunity to shape the future of data at Box.
Collaborating with several teams across our relational data tier, you will develop and scale our near-realtime data access interfaces that provide a change data stream of all actions performed on the graph and a highly scalable data warehouse that can support complex data processing. You will engage with client teams to understand their use cases, enhance the interfaces to support those use cases and drive wider adoption across engineering. You will advocate for and ensure that our services meet our availability, performance and reliability SLOs. Join us in shaping and implementing the roadmap to achieve our team's technical vision of transforming our core data tier into a truly self-contained platform.
