• Tenable is looking for a Staff Software Engineer to join our core product engineering team. • Focused on designing, developing, and maintaining cloud-based, state-of-the-art search solutions on top of our customers' ever-evolving landscape of infrastructure in a scalable way. • A critical aspect of this job is to build and manage services around data handling. • This role centers on crafting the services that enable data ingestion, storage, querying, and retrieval at scale. • As a senior member of the team, you will have the opportunity to architect, design and implement features to help drive the overall architecture of our platform. • Collaborate with Product Managers, other engineers, designers, and stakeholders to continuously iterate on our products and drive consensus.

• Build and evolve a storage platform operating at cloud scale — we're talking exabyte-level storage with real durability constraints • Optimize for different hard drive and hardware characteristics, improving throughput and reducing error rates across hardware failure modes • Troubleshoot ambiguous, symptom-driven problems where the signal is limited and the root cause isn't obvious • Contribute to major architectural upgrades that will support the platform for the next 5–10 years — including support for emerging storage technologies • Take ownership of parts of the stack where general-purpose components stop being the right fit • Improve hardware utilization and efficiency as the business grows upmarket and scale increases • Collaborate closely with a distributed team — coordinating, problem-solving, and communicating across time zones daily

• Design and build backend services that orchestrate and manage database clusters in ClickHouse Cloud. • Extend our platform control plane — written in Ruby, Go, and TypeScript — to support new Postgres capabilities. • Contribute to PostgreSQL extensions and data plane agents, written in C, C++ or Rust • Contribute to automation and tooling that simplify cluster provisioning, scaling, and lifecycle management. • Collaborate with infrastructure, SRE, and product teams to ensure operational excellence, performance, and reliability. • Develop APIs and integrations that expose new Postgres functionality to customers and internal systems. • Improve observability, deployment safety, and debugging workflows for database services. • Participate in design discussions, code reviews, and on-call rotations, contributing to the overall reliability and velocity of the team. • Operate with autonomy — identifying opportunities, driving execution, and delivering meaningful impact.
