Requirements
• Strong software engineering background (Rust, Python, Go, or similar). • Solid understanding of databases, distributed systems, or search engines. • Experience with performance testing, profiling, and benchmarking. • Ability to reason about trade-offs (speed vs accuracy, memory vs latency, etc.). • Comfort working with large datasets and automation pipelines. • Clear communication skills — you can explain numbers and their implications. • Experience with vector search, ANN algorithms, or ML infrastructure. • Familiarity with cloud environments and containerized workloads. • Experience contributing to open-source projects. • Knowledge of observability tools and performance profiling.
Responsibilities
• Design and maintain reproducible benchmarks for vector search, indexing, filtering, and distributed workloads. • Evaluate performance across different dimensions: latency, throughput, recall, memory usage, and cost. • Compare Qdrant against alternative solutions in a fair, transparent, and technically sound way. • Build and maintain benchmarking tooling, datasets, and automation (CI, dashboards, reports). • Collaborate closely with core engineers to identify regressions, bottlenecks, and optimization opportunities. • Help translate benchmark results into clear narratives for docs, blog posts, and talks. • Ensure benchmarks reflect real-world user workloads, not just synthetic best cases.
Benefits
• A remote-first, international team working on cutting-edge AI infrastructure. • A competitive salary with additional perks. • Flexible working hours and async-friendly culture. • High ownership and real impact. • Open-source, engineering-driven culture. • Choose your own laptop equipment. • For US-based candidates, we also offer a comprehensive benefits package including 401k match, health, dental, and vision insurance, plus flexible PTO policy. • Qdrant is an equal-opportunity employer. We believe the best ideas come from diverse teams, and we actively welcome applicants from all backgrounds.
