Job Description

Join to apply for the Senior Cloud Engineer - Secure Deployments role at ClickHouse.

Recognized on the 2025 Forbes Cloud 100 list, ClickHouse is one of the most innovative and fast‑growing private cloud companies. With over 2,000 customers and ARR that has more than quadrupled over the past year, ClickHouse leads the market in real‑time analytics, data warehousing, observability, and AI workloads. ClickHouse’s momentum was confirmed in its recent $350M Series C financing that included new, tier one investors such as Khosla Ventures, BOND, IVP, Battery Ventures, and Bessemer Venture Partners. We’re on a mission to transform how companies use data. Come be a part of our journey.

Join a small, specialized team building ClickHouse’s next frontier – secure, air‑gapped deployments for government and enterprise clients who can’t use public cloud. We’re looking for exceptional engineers to design, develop, deploy, and secure a ClickHouse Cloud database platform in air‑gapped environments. This is an exciting opportunity to architect solutions for environments with zero internet connectivity. Your work will involve architecting secure, high‑performance, and scalable solutions tailored for classified and highly regulated systems.

What will you do?

• Design and develop a highly available, scalable, and secure ClickHouse Cloud tailored for air‑gapped systems.
• Build novel deployment automation for disconnected systems.
• Work closely with existing Dataplane and Core teams to ensure software parity with existing cloud infrastructure.
• Solve unique scaling challenges in classified/regulated environments.
• Design and deploy ClickHouse Cloud on Kubernetes and containerized environments, ensuring high availability, replication, and backup.
• Develop and maintain Helm Charts, operators, and Kubernetes manifests for database management.
• Implement repeatable automation to build, scale and troubleshoot various infrastructure components in air‑gapped, disconnected operations.
• Optimize ClickHouse Cloud database performance and storage architecture for on‑premise, hybrid, and government cloud deployments.
• Integrate secure authentication, encryption, and access‑control mechanisms.
• Develop and maintain technical documentation for system architecture, security, and compliance audits.
• Troubleshoot and resolve database performance, security, and operational issues.
• Automate deployments and lifecycle management using Terraform, Ansible, or CI/CD pipelines.

About you

• You have 6+ years of relevant software development experience building and operating scalable, fault‑tolerant, distributed systems.
• Experience with ClickHouse or relational (PostgreSQL, MySQL) and NoSQL (MongoDB, Cassandra) databases.
• Proficiency with Kubernetes tools (Helm, Kustomize, operators, Istio, serviceMesh).
• Strong understanding of air‑gapped architectures and data isolation.
• Experience with containerized deployments (Docker, Kubernetes, OpenShift) in government environments.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP, AWS GovCloud, Azure Government, or on‑prem equivalents).
• Proficiency in Python or Go for automation and integration.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work well within a team and across engineering teams.
• You are a strong problem solver with solid production debugging skills.
• You are passionate about efficiency, availability, scalability, and data governance.
• You thrive in a fast‑paced environment and see yourself as a partner with the business to move the business forward.
• You have a high level of responsibility, ownership, and accountability.
