We Are

At RelationalAI, we are enabling the future of data-centric systems that learn, reason, and predict, built on our cloud-native relational knowledge graph management system. We are bringing together a global team of exceptional people who inspire and respect one another to achieve our mission.

We are intellectually curious, with problem-solving mindsets and a proven track record of delivering results. We value the ability to learn, grow, and respond to an ever-changing landscape of challenges and opportunities as much as we value past experience.

RelationalAI is a remote-first company that has been operating with a distributed team since day one.  We are based on six continents, support team members wherever they live, and are fluent in the tools and processes of distributed and often asynchronous work.

Who You Are

A proactive problem-solver who takes full ownership of customer and team challenges. You embrace opportunities to explore unfamiliar system components with enthusiasm and curiosity. Your approach combines technical excellence with data-driven analysis to deliver optimal solutions. While maintaining high standards, you demonstrate genuine empathy toward both colleagues and customers, creating a collaborative environment where relationships and results flourish together.

In this role, you'll tackle this through building advanced profiling and observability infrastructure, working with teams to fix performance issues (or just fixing them yourselves), and contributing to design reviews across the organization to ensure a performance-oriented mindset and culture through Engineering. We’re solving difficult problems at RelationalAI, and in Performance Engineering, you get to touch it all: distributed systems, database internals, mathematical optimization solvers, GNNs, GraphRAG, and other GenAI.

You’ll have :

• 7+ years of experience in performance engineering and benchmarking, focusing on large-scale data systems.
• Experience with distributed tracing and observability tools like Datadog, Honeycomb, LogicMonitor, or something similar. 
• We’re language agnostic (but if you’re curious, we mostly use Python and Go)
• Extensive hands-on experience with performance engineering methodologies and best practices.
• Expertise in identifying and resolving performance bottlenecks using profiling tools and tracing.
• Deep understanding of distributed computing systems and architecture, with a focus on data-intensive applications.
• A proven track record of collaborating with other engineering teams to drive customer-centric outcomes.
