CloudBackend is about to launch a revolutionary new decentralized database service, The Singularity Database. The service makes developers considerably more productive with all technical challenges to run, manage, and build APIs for the database in the cloud solved from the get go, while also keeping data in sync with connected clients to simplify application development. This enables any front-end developer to build the entire solution and become a full-stack developer, while removing boring and tedious tasks from full-stack developers. It is a transformative technology for web developers, mobile app developers, and IoT developers. It is a key technology to enable decentralization of data, edge computing, and the shift into using a database as a service, instead of manually installing and running a database on cloud infrastructure.

Work description

As a senior C++ developer, you will part of our SCRUM team and work to realize our product roadmap, as well as developing said roadmap. It is a very innovative work, focused on product development of our proprietary database service. You will be an important part of the company and will play a key role in the development of new solutions and architectures.

This is a unique opportunity to be part of building a unicorn company and we will offer employees stock options. The CloudBackend team has previously invented and launched services such as iCloud and been behind brands such as MyCloud.

With the track record of being behind two of the world's most well-known cloud brands, it is time to create a third and we are looking for coworkers to participate in this exciting journey.

Responsibilities

• Focus will be on architecture and development of the decentralized edge nodes, including development of the decentralized data layer.
• Program in C++ and be part of a distributed SCRUM team.
• Participate in architecture discussions and specify technical solutions.
• Develop stateless micro services APIs and daemons.
• Deploy code through Docker or Kubernetes.
• Mentor junior colleagues and help their professional development.

CloudBackend's The Singularity Database is a decentralized, policy-driven database that lowers latency by storing data in the cloud, in the edge and on edge units distributed. The service is completely unique, with the intention to be used by millions of users across the world.

With CloudBackend a startup or application developer will be able to launch a global service with good performance across the globe that also meets all data regulation acts, without it requiring massive development resources. Application and web developers that normally spend a lot of time on data handling between clients and backend can now instead put those resources on improving the user experience and system functionality. CloudBackend's customers will thus be able to launch better services faster, with less resources, where they don't have to bother with mundane data plumbing, data synchronization or management of distributed databases in the cloud.
