Why join us?

  • We announced our (free) MVP at Kafka London Summit 2019. Due to the major success, we switched our model to recurring paying licenses early 2020. We were 2 people. Many many conversions, largely profitable. We are growing and need your help to scale up.

  • We have many new projects planned on our roadmap, to change the landscape of companies using Kafka through a friendly and helpful platform, to help in many aspects.

  • We're a remote company. Work as you want, where you want.

  • We are honest and prone honesty. Tell us what you think, what you need, what you expect, what you want, we're listening, and we hope you will listen too.

  • Stephane Maarek, the awesome Udemy teacher (millions of students for Apache Kafka and AWS courses) and incredible speaker, is our CPO.


Engineering at Conduktor Inc

Engineering team and processes

We don't have cycles (no sprint). We work Kanban-style using Linear. Engineers do demo of what they implemented to the team and CTO. Upon validation, they release the software (automatically through CI/CD). We try to release our desktop software every week.

About the new projects (not desktop software, but classic web/api), we will do automatic CI/CD (fully tested).

Technical Challenges

We build softwares on top of Apache Kafka technologies (Kafka Connect, Streams, ksqlDB etc.), so we need a great experience about everything about Kafka and need to support past versions at the same time as the new versions.

Projects you might work on
  • Conduktor Desktop: a Kotlin+Scala ZIO+JavaFX application (https://www.conduktor.io/changelog/).

  • We want to build new projects (React+API in Scala ZIO+GraphQL) around several aspects of Apache Kafka.

  • We have a customer portal (Micronaut/VueJS) where we want to offer more and more features (no Kafka here, but more business features oriented)
