Your Role and Responsibilities
The Hybrid Observability & Management charter includes both Unified Stream Manager (USM) and Confluent Control Center (C3), with a shared goal of delivering a consistent, enterprise-grade management, observability, and security experience across on-prem, cloud, and hybrid Confluent Platform deployments. As a Software Engineer on this team, you will work on well-defined, scoped pieces of USM or C3, with guidance and mentorship from senior engineers, while learning the fundamentals of building and operating platform software at scale. On the USM side, that means contributing to hybrid-first management and operational capabilities; on the C3 side, it means helping improve cluster health, topic and consumer monitoring, connector visibility, and management workflows. This role is a strong fit for an engineer early in their career who wants to build depth in distributed systems and platform engineering. You'll work closely with experienced engineers to deliver reliable, well-tested software, and grow into owning a specific sub-component of USM or C3 as you build expertise. - Deliver well-scoped tasks and features on time, with code review and mentorship from senior engineers. - Contribute to USM capabilities (Agent, Cloud Console) or C3 workflows (cluster health, topic visibility, consumer monitoring, connector status) depending on team roadmap needs. - Write design one-pagers for your own sub-tasks and incorporate feedback from stakeholders and peers. - Learn Confluent's engineering practices: coding standards, Dev Prod tooling, release process, and design review process. - Write tests, fix bugs, and participate in code reviews to build a habit of quality and craftsmanship. - Help troubleshoot production and customer-facing issues by analyzing logs and metrics, with support from senior teammates. - Participate in on-call rotation with mentorship, learning to debug and mitigate issues under guidance. - Take ownership of a specific sub-component of USM or C3 and grow into the go-to person for it.
