はじめに

We’re building Astra Serverless, the next generation of distributed, scalable, fault-tolerant, serverless NoSQL data services — powered by Apache Cassandra and extended with native vector and AI capabilities across multi-cloud environments. 

Our customers depend on our platform to serve real-time, mission-critical workloads on a global scale. Ensuring reliability, performance, and correctness under unpredictable workloads is a non-trivial challenge — and that’s where you come in. 

As a Software Development Manager, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our distributed database platform and team building it — from architecture and performance design to leadership and mentoring. You’ll work on systems that power mission-critical workloads for enterprises worldwide, helping ensure scalability, resilience, and reliability at a global scale.

Why This Role? 

This is a rare opportunity to work on the internals of a globally distributed, cloud-scale database service — while helping lead a team that deeply cares about craftsmanship, resilience, and elegant systems design. You’ll combine hands-on technical depth with mentorship and architectural impact, ensuring Astra DB continues to push the boundaries of what distributed databases can do in a serverless world.

 

役割と責任
  • Lead design and development of advanced database features and distributed services across multi-region, serverless deployments.
  • Architect and optimize components for scalability, observability, and maintainability in high-throughput, low-latency environments.
  • Drive performance, availability, and fault tolerance, improving replication, compaction, and storage-layer behavior for large-scale clusters.
  • Guide and mentor engineers across teams — elevating engineering practices, design quality, and distributed systems craftsmanship.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with cloud platform, infrastructure, and quality engineering teams to deliver reliable, automated, and testable systems.
  • Contribute strategically to technical roadmap discussions and help define the long-term vision for our cloud database architecture.
  • Stay ahead of innovation in distributed databases, storage systems, and cloud-native technologies — influencing how we evolve Astra DB.
