Supabase integration. Work with Supabase’s Postgres team to ensure OrioleDB fits naturally into Supabase’s managed offering and roadmap.
You Will
Design, implement, and test new OrioleDB features and integrate them cleanly with PostgreSQL’s planner, executor, and surrounding subsystems.
Build out and maintain test infrastructure: regression suites, fuzzing, randomized testing, crash and recovery testing, and CI pipelines.
Identify and prepare patches suitable for upstreaming to PostgreSQL core.
Improve performance, resilience, monitoring, and operational tooling for production use.
Debug and resolve complex issues in low-level C code, including in storage, replication, indexing, and query execution paths.
Participate in design discussions, architecture reviews, and code reviews — both inside Supabase and in the PostgreSQL community.
Write clear technical documentation, design notes, and upstream proposals.
Contribute to troubleshooting, analyzing, supporting and maintaining OrioleDB in production deployments. This can include answering support ticket requests, an on-call rotation, and supporting our team members in troubleshooting and fixing live customer production databases.
