We are the layer that turns a customer's model into something they and their AI agents can query interactively using our Process Query Language across enterprise-sized datasets.</p> <p>The team actively evolves our new premium query engine, collaborating with multiple other teams across time zones. New features, improved operationability, robust security, and allowing for scalable customer workloads are ours to design and ship.</p> <p>Our defining program right now is a multi-year migration of the query engine that has powered Celonis for years onto our new premium query engine. It is one of the largest and highest-leverage engineering efforts in the company.</p> <p><strong>The Role:</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br></span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br></span></p> <p>We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to lead both the engineering that evolves the new premium query engine and the execution of milestones within the migration program that moves customer workloads onto it.</p> <p>This is not a lift and shift. The two query engines evolved with different focus areas and the new premium query engine serves different forward looking use cases, so the job is keeping customer workloads running seamlessly throughout. You will analyze how the engines differ on real customer workloads, develop tooling, classify the root causes, and turn them into concrete follow up actions across teams.</p> <p>Continuous operations are a crucial part of your job. You will help keep the engines and their orchestration healthy while the entire fleet moves underneath them, because a migration on this scale does not get a pause in customer traffic to work with.</p> <p>Your work at Celonis will directly impact companies and people around the globe as they improve their processes to save
