Paperwork wise, working with foreign contractors is much easier compared to US ones - they just send invoice PDF-s at the end of the months, and the company does the regular bank wire transfer. So what's the reason you are not open to this?

We make TiDB, an open source scale-out database that is consistent, always online, and MySQL compatible. Our underlying distributed key-value layer, TiKV, is a CNCF project.

We have a lot of interesting challenges to keep scaling for our existing users with 100+ TB of data and expanding to help users in new ways with their database needs.

I am part of the international team based out of San Mateo (bay area). Our small team is oriented to being remote, and we travel periodically to meet in person.

Our tech stack is Rust, Go, Kubernetes, and TiDB itself! You can work on a serverless cloud service, do low-level database hacking, or work directly with customers depending on your existing experience.

I like working on TiDB because I get to be a part of a big change going on in databases and work with a skilled team. On a daily basis I learn new things about databases and the cloud, but I also get to apply my existing experiences to have a big impact.

See the jobs link for more details and compensation.

Hey everyone, I’m Rune and I’m COO at Aula. We’re pretty focused on community in digital space. That’s what our product does and it’s how we make remote work work. I just wanted to share that most applicants leave the interview process with new friends - have a look from the candidate slack group: https://cl.ly/ef2b105e6159 Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Rune,

Very interesting product I must say.

For the product management role, do you need relevant experience with consumer product companies. How about small scale startup experience in edTech as founder/product guy?

Also, are you open to fully remote folks?
