Principal Software Engineer

Lead deep work on PostgreSQL internals (index access methods, operator classes) to design, implement and evolve indexing strategies for largescale unstructured / semi-structured data. Extend PostgreSQL's query engine by analyzing execution plans, introducing BSON aware operators, custom scan nodes and new cursor/continuation semantics to match NoSQL query needs and ensure efficient execution at scale. Design and tune index pruning strategies that keep large tables and indexes lean without regressing query performance. Collaborate across the PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Linux Foundation hosted DocumentDB communities to share vision, align on roadmap priorities, and contribute features that advance the open source DocumentDB engine. Profile and analyze distributed system to identify performance bottlenecks. Work across team and organizational boundaries to drive clarity and alignment. Conduct and participate in design/code reviews and help shape and steer the team coding guidelines.
