Software Engineer (Backend), Gtm Tooling

  Category-defining tech. Career-defining work. The next era of software won’t operate at human scale. Applications will create applications. Systems will coordinate with systems. Data and decisions will move faster than teams can react to them. The infrastructure powering that world cannot be fragile, reactive, or limited by the assumptions of the past.  Cockroach Labs exists to build what comes next — before the world requires it. We created CockroachDB to survive failures, scale without compromise, and adapt to changing conditions automatically. Now we’re helping define a future where complexity fades into the background and infrastructure simply works, no matter the scale. This is the kind of challenge that attracts people who want to shape industries, not just participate in them. The work is ambitious, the standards are high, and the impact is real. The Role We're looking for a Backend Software Engineer to join our GTM Engineering team. In this role, you’ll be focusing on building out our internal knowledge and intelligence infrastructure. This is a new system designed to leverage the latest in agentic execution combined with deep software development fundamentals to enable real improvements to not just the Revenue team, but Cockroach Labs as a whole. While this is a remote role, you must be based in the greater New York area to be eligible for the position. You Will Feature Development & Integration: Design, implement, and maintain new features and integrations that enhance the GTM OS, our new system for delivering actionable intelligence across the company. This work will include both traditional and agentic engineering approaches, leveraging the latest AI technologies to build impactful tools and workflows. Performance Optimization & Troubleshooting: Investigate and resolve complex performance and reliability issues within the GTM OS and its data pipelines, ensuring production-grade availability. Build observability and monitoring capabilities into the system. Customer Focus: Partner directly with internal teams to understand how they spend their time and identify opportunities where we can better support them. In some cases, this may involve building entirely new features; in others, it may mean making iterative improvements to existing systems
