BetterDB (https://betterdb.com) (https://github.com/BetterDB-inc) | Founding Engineer | Remote | Full-time BetterDB is building the tooling ecosystem for Valkey, the high-performance Redis fork backed by AWS, Google, and Oracle. We're starting with observability — historical persistence, pattern analysis, anomaly detection, and Prometheus export — so you can debug what happened at 3am when you wake up at 9am.

Stack: TypeScript, NestJS + Fastify, React, Valkey, PostgreSQL, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS.

We ship OSS self-hosted and have a live cloud SaaS: https://betterdb.com/login In the last two months we've averaged more than one release per week across multiple products and channels. That's what "moves fast" looks like in practice. We recently started moving more and more into the LLM cache space via both observability and actual libraries.

We hired our first engineer in March and are looking to expand the team — no pressure on timeline, we'd rather find the right person.

Just email kristiyan@betterdb.com with a bit about yourself and why this is interesting to you. I reply to everyone. It might take a day or two given volume, but you'll hear back.

Great thread, really appreciate seeing clear hiring info like this, especially with remote/onsite details upfront. Makes it much easier for people to actually apply instead of guessing.

I have a new role open on my team: Staff Engineer – GenAI. We’re building an enterprise-grade Agentic AI platform that helps teams build, integrate, and operationalize GenAI solutions quickly, with minimal friction. The challenge is making it work in the real world: enterprise architecture, security/compliance, governance, and operational excellence. If you’ve been the “high-leverage IC” who builds platforms other teams depend on—APIs, orchestration, standards, dev experience—this is worth a look. https://jobs.republicservices.com/us/en/job/R-174485/Staff-E...

Location: Remote in the US with a preference for people Arizona (but not mandatory)

Comp Range: $132,600- $182,250 DOE.

Cologne, Germany | UMH | Product Engineer | Full-time | 55 - 85k EUR | ONSITE (part remote)

Hi, Alex and Jeremy here from UMH.

8 years ago, Jeremy was absolutely frustrated with the status quo of data infrastructure in manufacturing. Companies paid millions per year for "shitty 90s software" and are still doing that today, when there is much better software out there for open-source. So we decided that we can do this better, first founded a System Integrator, realized most of the tasks in setting up and maintaining a data infrastructure can be standardized, and decided to found the currently VC-backed UMH, which is built on open source software and is open source itself.

What we're actually building: We build and scale a real-time data platform that runs hundreds of Benthos pipelines inside a single Docker container (UMH Core), processing millions of industrial messages that control actual production processes.

Plus a local-first user interface (Management Console) where both non-technical factory workers and power-users/developers can work together. And yes, we care about UI in enterprise/industrial software.
