Job Description:
We’re not just building better tech. We’re rewriting how data moves and what the world can do with it. With Confluent, data doesn’t sit still. Our platform puts information in motion, streaming in near real-time so companies can react faster, build smarter, and deliver experiences as dynamic as the world around them. It takes a certain kind of person to join this team. Those who ask hard questions, give honest feedback, and show up for each other. No egos, no solo acts. Just smart, curious humans pushing toward something bigger, together. One Confluent. One Team. One Data Streaming Platform. About the Role: The Partner Applied Solutions (PAS) team is part of Confluent’s Partner & Technology Group, which exists to drive cross-functional innovation, productivity, and partner success through deep event streaming expertise. PAS engineers focus on building partner-enabling tools, frameworks, and systems that bridge the gap between core products and customer solutions. These are engineered assets designed to scale, evolve, and help partners and Confluent teams deliver robust, consistent, and verified event streaming solutions. The team operates as a small, high-impact engineering group: pragmatic, technical, and deeply integrated with Confluent’s partner and product ecosystem. As a Senior Engineer in the Partner Applied Solutions team, your first assignment will be to help design and build the platform, services, and workflows that powers Confluent Marketplace end-to-end. You’ll work across: Confluent Cloud APIs and control plane; Partner and internal services that publish and manage listings; Confluent Marketplace UI and back-end flows for discovery, try/buy, provisioning, and metering. Your work will enable partners to launch high-quality offerings quickly, and make it radically simpler for customers to adopt those offerings as part of their event streaming architecture. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building productized platforms, owning end-to-end flows, and working closely with both internal stakeholders and external partners to shape how the Confluent ecosystem scales.
