Title: Engineer (Software)-(Database Kernel Architect)
City: Munich
Code: T020008-14 Expiry Date: 2012-10-11
Category: TECHNOLOGY SubCategory: RESEARCH and DEVELOPMENT
Description:
1. Database kernel Architect will be responsible for leading the architecture, design and implementation of a cutting-edge database kernel specifically designed for large-scale transactional and analytic data management systems.
2. Database Kernel Senior Software Developers will be responsible for development and implementation of the cutting-edge database kernel.

Common and consistent software platform is the key to the success of building complex network element and other applications with differing requirements. A common software platform brings benefits to R&D work (time-to-market, development costs, etc.) and also to the customers in terms of consistent operations and maintenance (O&M), reduced training needs and others. Database Kernel Architecture work in this context focuses on lower layers of the software stack: operating system interfaces and storage system, hardware adaptation, high availability database and middleware, O&M. Having a wide variety of applications, the focus within database kernel architecture development is on modularity, configurability and adaptability to various use cases, including telecom networking and enterprise IT.

We are looking for experts on Database Kernel Architecture domain to work on the large-scale, high availability, high performance transactional and analytic database technology & architecture, requirements, migration possibilities and implementation guidance. Topics of interest include:

 OLTP database in particular for telecom application or enterprise information system
 OLAP database and business intelligence in general for telecom or enterprise information system
 Relational database, In-memory database, highly scalable database service, etc
 Large-scale distributed database architectures
 World class distributed system expertise, including clustered system, distributed database, distributed computing, distributed storage, etc.
 Hardware adaptation techniques for new storage and processor technologies
 Enterprise IT Middleware
 Database related O&M and database related tools chain
 Quality Assurance, application integration / optimization

Within the scope of your areas of expertise and responsibility you will:

 In collaboration with China R&D, architect & design database management system for Huawei's telecom and enterprise use cases Focus areas are listed above
 Steer and coordinate related R&D activities with Huawei R&D in China
 Perform business analysis and technical risk evaluation of proposed designs/solutions
 Present the proposed solution to Huawei R&D decision makers
 Have dialogue with customers and inject customer feedback to corresponding stakeholders
 Actively contribute to relevant open source community like PostgreSQL, and contribute to industry standardization activities and file patent applications
 Perform business and technical planning
