Our team is part of the Foundation engineering organisation. Our mission is to build and scale data compliance systems at Zendesk – systems that are driving data deletion and data movement across the Zendesk ecosystem. We sit within the Foundation Storage group and partner closely with the Event Streaming team.
Crafting the next generation of the workflow orchestration systems that powers moving customer data and other business workflows
Building mover services for MySQL, DynamoDB, Kafka, and S3 that handle data transfer between regions for our services
Evolving our deployment capabilities to safely deploy and test our systems in production with smoke & soak testing, error rate monitoring, and automated rollbacks
These projects require the coordination and participation of many teams so effective technical communication; via documentation, pairing, and meetings, is crucial to our success.
We are a small team trying to answer big questions: What is the right distributed transaction pattern for our use cases? How do we safely move terabytes of data across the world, without any downtime and without putting too much load on the entire system? If you’re intrigued and motivated by this problem space, we encourage you to apply!

We foster a culture of belonging and inclusion
We will ensure there is a meaningful link to your contributions and the objectives of the company
We will help build your people network internally

Ability to work through unfamiliar code and technologies
