Software Engineer Intern - Database Engineering

Engineering | Beijing, China

Pivotal is looking for a few great engineering interns to join our Greenplum Database (GPDB) engineering team. At Pivotal, you will work on core GPDB bug fixes and features development as what our FTEs(Full Time Employee) have done. You will be treated as FTE instead of working on tedious and annoying work which no one likes to do.

Greenplum Database® is an advanced, fully featured, open source distributed MPP share nothing database. It provides powerful and rapid analytics on petabyte scale data volumes. Uniquely geared toward big data analytics, Greenplum Database is powered by the world’s most advanced cost-based query optimizer delivering high analytical query performance on large data volumes.

You

You have a passion for developing large distributed systems to manage data. You may have worked on Massively Parallel Processing [MPP] systems solutions, SQL on Hadoop, in memory grid systems or perhaps even NoSQL systems. Whichever kinds of ‘Big Data’  solutions you’ve worked on, you understand that software that manages data at scale is a little different from other kinds of systems. Solutions that work fine on single nodes with gigabytes of data can fall over when scaled to petabytes of data and thousands of nodes. You relish discovering solutions that perform at scale while preserving the sanctity of customer data. You are curious, love to learn, and love to share your latest discoveries. Above all, you love shipping software as a member of a collaborative team.

Us

At Pivotal, our mission is to enable customers to build a new class of applications, leveraging big and fast data, and do all of this with the power of cloud-independence. We are at the epicenter of Cloud, Big Data and Mobile and we’re actively investing in all three areas.. Pivotal’s broad portfolio of products includes the Big Data Suite, the most complete approach to enterprise data lakes and advanced analytics; Pivotal Cloud Foundry, the industry leading Platform as a Service product; and world leading ultra-agile application development through Pivotal Labs where we’re transforming how the world builds software.

The Big Data Suite includes  Greenplum Database (GPDB), our massively parallel data warehouse;  HAWQ, our SQL on Hadoop solution; GemFire, our distributed in-memory key-value store; and MADlib, our machine learning solution. Open source is an important part of our strategy and all of our products are open source.

The Pivotal Data engineering team tackles the technical challenges that come with massively parallel distributed systems operating on petabytes of data across thousands of nodes. We delve into areas like query optimization, high-performance in-memory transaction and query processing, parallel and distributed execution of advanced data processing algorithms, resource management, and storage. Here at Pivotal you'll be working on hard, worthwhile problems with a collaborative team, accelerating your growth as an engineer.
