Your Role And Responsibilities
About the Role:
We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join the Tableflow team. In this role, you will build the critical components that turn Confluent Cloud data streams into open table formats. You will bridge the gap between operational streaming (Kafka)
and analytical data lakes (Apache Iceberg, Delta Lake) by building the control plane and data plane components that materialize topics into tables in real-time.
About The Team
We are a team of passionate engineers who love solving complex distributed systems and infrastructure problems. The Tableflow team creates the "intelligent connective tissue" between Confluent’s data streaming platform and the up-to-date data lakehouse. The team’s work focuses on two core pillars:
Control Plane: Building the robust orchestration layer that manages the entire lifecycle of tables across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
Open Table Formats and Ecosystem: Building the translation logic to publish Kafka data as Tables (Apache Iceberg and Delta Lake) and also integrates with the Lakehouse ecosystem (AWS Glue, Unity Catalog).
What You Will Do
Design and implement data plane components that publish data into open-tab
