Yugabyte is the company behind YugabyteDB , the AI-ready, multi-modal, distributed PostgreSQL database for cloud-native apps. Trusted by industry leaders including Shopify, Paramount+, GM, Kroger, Fiserv, and NPCI, YugabyteDB has been deployed in over 100 countries and powers more than 5 million clusters worldwide. Together, our hard-working team of experts and our industry-leading technology are uniquely positioned to meet the demands of modern workloads: geo-distributed, ultra-resilient, and built to scale without limits. Our Yugabeings (distributed, like our database) span 12+ countries and multiple time zones, sharing expertise from diverse backgrounds and industries. Technical Support Engineer Remote, (UK time zone) At Yugabyte , We are on a mission to become the default transactional database for enterprises building cloud-native applications. YugabyteDB is our PostgreSQL-compatible distributed SQL database — resilient, scalable, and built to run anywhere. We're not just building software; we're watching major enterprises throw out Oracle and build something better, and the people who help them get there are the ones sitting in this team. About This Role We're looking for someone who gets genuinely excited when a customer's database is on fire, because they are eager to dive in and help. This isn't a "ticket-monkey" role. You won't be copy-pasting canned responses into a queue. You'll be working live cases — distributed systems behaving unexpectedly, replication lag climbing, certificates expiring in production — alongside a global team that actually cares about getting to the root of things. You'll learn YugabyteDB, cloud infrastructure, and distributed systems the way everyone learns them best: by necessity, with great people around you. What You'll Do Triage and own technical support tickets from enterprise customers, collaborating with a global team across time zones Investigate incidents methodically — reading logs, running queries, tracing replication issues — and surface the root cause, not just the fix Write clear internal notes and handover documentation so the next engineer can pick up exactly where you left off (this is not optional; notes are the job) Attempt repros of customer issues and document the steps for others to replicate Escalate to engineering when warranted, with enough evidence that they can act immediately Contribute to the team's shared knowledge base and improve how we handle problems we've seen before Be the calm, professional voice a customer hears when their weekend just got complicated What We're Looking For You are the right person if: You jump in. When something unfamiliar comes across the queue and no one's claimed it, your instinct is to click it and start reading, not to wait. You embrace not knowing the answer yet, and you see that as the start of something, not a reason to hold back. You aren't afraid to reach out for help when you're stuck. You know it's a sign that you are learning. And when others are stuck, you are happy to help them You have a technical background in any discipline — software, systems, automotive, aerospace, networking, electronics, whatever. If you have solved real problems under real pressure with tools and documentation, that counts. You have familiarity with Linux tools -- you have used the tools find and grep to navigate a filesystem Note taking is how you gain context . You write down what you found, what you tried, and what you plan to do next, every time. It builds confidence for both you and the customer You may also have: Experience with any relational database — even if it's just writing queries Experience on a support team for a large software product Why This Team Our support engineers don't just resolve tickets — we are incident commanders. We run incident channels, hold calls with customer teams and stakeholders, write CEs (customer escalations) that go directly to our database engineering team, and sometimes catch product bugs before engineering does. Our support engineers: Are curious, what others view as problems, we view as opportunities to learn something new Work with highly technical issues that require precise mitigation Dig into source code themselves when they need to understand why a validation is failing Know that some issues need overnight support, so we prepare the offshore teams appropriately That's the culture you'd be joining. People who take ownership, communicate clearly, and stay curious. Pay Range: Competitive, flexible, depending on skills and experience. Due to the Proclamation, “Restriction on Entry of Certain Nonimmigrant Workers”, which went into effect on September 21, 2025, at this time we are no longer able to sponsor new H-1B visa petitions filed after September 21, 2025 for new hires. We are still able to consider candidates who require H-1B extensions, changes of employer, or other types of work authorization.

Here's how to pick the right one and stand out in your application.
144.883Jobs
31.687IN
81%EN
That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
