OrioleDB Developer (AMER)

New OrioleDB features. Design and implement new capabilities in OrioleDB — for example, native index access methods (GiST, GIN, HNSW for pgvector), disaster recovery tooling, and other storage-engine-level features that expand what OrioleDB can do.

Stability. Strengthen OrioleDB's reliability through deeper test coverage, fault injection, crash and recovery testing, and improvements to CI infrastructure. Ensure regressions are caught early and that OrioleDB behaves predictably under stress, replication, and failure scenarios.

Upstream collaboration. Contribute changes directly to PostgreSQL core. Part of OrioleDB lives as a patch on top of PostgreSQL — moving the right pieces upstream shrinks what we maintain ourselves and benefits the wider community. This happens through PostgreSQL's open development process: the pgsql-hackers mailing list, public code review, and commitfests.

Supabase integration. Work with Supabase's Postgres team to ensure OrioleDB fits naturally into Supabase's managed offering and roadmap.

Design, implement, and test new OrioleDB features and integrate them cleanly with PostgreSQL's planner, executor, and surrounding subsystems.

Build out and maintain test infrastructure: regression suites, fuzzing, randomized testing, crash and recovery testing, and CI pipelines.

Identify and prepare patches suitable for upstreaming to PostgreSQL core.

Improve performance, resilience, monitoring, and operational tooling for production use.

Debug and resolve complex issues in low-level C code, including in storage, replication, indexing, and query execution paths.

Participate in design discussions, architecture reviews, and code reviews — both inside Supabase and in the PostgreSQL community.

Write clear technical documentation, design notes, and upstream proposals.

Have co-responsibility for troubleshooting, analyzing, supporting and maintaining oriledb postgres and bundled extensions in production deployments. This can include answering support ticket requests, an on-call rotation, and supporting our team members in troubleshooting and fixing live customer production databases.

An existing PostgreSQL core contributor or have equivalent experience in Database internals.

An expert C programmer with 8+ years of production experience with focus on low-level systems programming

Deeply familiar with PostgreSQL’s codebase, build system, and extension APIs.

Have experience designing or implementing database storage engines, index structures, or query execution components.

Comfortable contributing to community‑driven, upstream open source projects.

Proficient in debugging and profiling complex C code in a database context.

Able to write clear technical documentation and explain design trade‑offs.

A strong communicator, committed to an open and collaborative development process.

Fully Remote

We hire globally. We believe you can do your best work from anywhere. There are no Supabase offices, but we provide a WeWork membership or co-working allowance you can use anywhere in the world.

ESOP

Every team member receives ESOP (equity ownership) in the company. We want everyone to share in the upside of what we’re building together.

Tech Allowance

Use this budget to set up your ideal work environment—laptop, monitor, headphones, or whatever helps you do your best work.

Health Benefits

Supabase covers 100% of health insurance for employees and 80% for dependents, wherever you are. Your wellbeing and your family’s health are important to us.

Annual Off-Sites

Once a year, the entire company gathers in a new city for a week of connection, collaboration, and fun. It’s a highlight of our year.

Flexible Work

We operate asynchronously and trust you to manage your own time. You know what needs to be done and when.

Professional Development

Every team member receives an annual education allowance to spend on learning—courses, books, conferences, or anything that supports your growth.
