Scope. Query planners and optimizers, vectorized execution, transaction and index internals, write-ahead logging, and distributed consensus.

Not here. Application backends that use a database are out of scope entirely, and the durability layer underneath an engine is filed under storage.

Languages named on these postings. C++ (32), Rust (24), Go (6), Zig (1).

Hiring most into this area. Grafana Labs (13), OpenAI (5), Cloudflare (4), CoreWeave (4), Elastic (4).
