Description

At Yugabyte, we are on a mission to become the default transactional database for enterprises building cloud-native applications. YugabyteDB is our PostgreSQL-compatible distributed database for cloud-native apps. Resilient, scalable, and flexible, it runs on any cloud and enables developers to become instantly productive using well-known APIs.We are looking for talented and driven people to join us on our ambitious mission and help us build a lasting and impactful company.The transactional database market is estimated to grow to $64B by 2025. YugabyteDB is cloud-native by design, has on-demand horizontal scalability, and supports geographical distribution of data using built-in replication. This means that we are well-positioned to meet market demand for geo-distributed, high-scale, high-performance workloads. Join the Database Revolution at Yugabyte. Modern applications need a cloud-native database that eliminates tradeoffs and silos. YugabyteDB retains the power and familiarity of PostgreSQL by pairing its trusted API with a precision-engineered, distributed, cloud-native architecture. Even better, it’s 100% open source. Many of the world's leading enterprises are migrating from legacy RDBMSs (like Oracle, SQL Server, and DB2) to YugabyteDB, to meet their mission-critical app demands. About Yugabyte Reimagining PostgreSQL for a Cloud-Native World — that’s the mission of Yugabyte. YugabyteDB is a PostgreSQL-compatible distributed database purpose-built for modern, cloud-native applications. It’s designed from the ground up to be resilient, scalable, and flexible. As large enterprises modernize and born-in-the-cloud companies build disruptive solutions, many turn to PostgreSQL as their database of choice—and YugabyteDB quickly becomes their preferred distributed Postgres of choice. There’s nothing more rewarding than hearing a customer say they experienced an availability zone or region outage, yet their database stayed fully available with YugabyteDB. The preferred locations are IL, MN, NY, NC & GA. Overview We are looking for a Sales Engineer to join our fast-growing global sales team.
