Senior Software Engineer - Debezium

Introduction
The IBM Software Team is looking for a Software Engineer to work on Debezium, an open-source project building a distributed platform for capturing changes from databases with very low latency.

Debezium is written in Java and relies heavily on DBMS-specific features to create connectors that capture changes and publish them as events to Kafka in the same order they occur in the databases. This design ensures that no changes are missed, even when things go wrong.

As a Software Engineer, you will gain experience with distributed systems, stream processing, multiple databases, and the monitoring and management of distributed systems, all while working in an open-source environment. You will also participate in challenging discussions to help define and prioritize the Debezium roadmap. Ultimately, you’ll play a crucial role in the open-source community surrounding Debezium.
