Full Stack Engineer (Ghost Ops Team)

Striim•Palo Alto, CA

9d•Hybrid

About The Position

Striim is a unified data integration and streaming platform that connects clouds, data, and applications with unprecedented speed and simplicity. The company is looking for a Full-Stack Engineer to join its elite, high-visibility "Ghost Ops" team. This team's mission is to identify and resolve technical blockers that prevent critical customer deployments, ensuring data flows seamlessly. The role involves performing surgical interventions on the front lines of real-time data integration, rather than building generic product features. As a "Ghost Engineer," you will sit at the intersection of Core Engineering and High-Stakes Delivery, acting as the technical closer.

Requirements

Prior experience at a company building data movement, replication, or streaming platforms (CDI/ETL/ELT).
Understanding of Change Data Capture (CDC).
Ability to navigate the entire stack—from React UI glitches to Java/backend API bottlenecks, down to complex SQL execution plans.
Expertise in writing custom logic to extend platform capabilities for specific, high-scale use cases.
Deep understanding of high-concurrency, low-latency systems and how to move massive data volumes without breaking the latency budget.
Prioritize a working fix today over a theoretical discussion tomorrow.

Nice To Haves

Deep knowledge of the Oracle ecosystem.
Familiarity with CDBs (Container Databases) and PDBs (Pluggable Databases).
Experience with Oracle DataGuard.
Experience using downstream Oracle instances to offload replication processing from primary databases.
Advanced ability to interface with Oracle APIs and navigate highly complex, enterprise-grade setups.

Responsibilities

Dive deep into the existing mid-tier codebase to diagnose and repair bottlenecks or bugs stalling critical customer deployments.
Partner with Field Engineers to write custom, high-performance code within Striim’s Open Processor framework, enabling bespoke data handling that transcends standard UI configurations.
Thrive in "war room" environments, refactoring mid-tier logic or API interfaces on the fly to integrate seamlessly with unique enterprise ecosystems.
Maintain a calm, authoritative presence under pressure, explaining complex technical resolutions to customer stakeholders while simultaneously implementing the fix.
Focus on surgical precision—removing friction and hardening the platform, not adding to the general product roadmap.
