Staff Software Engineer, Query Engine [Rust]

We Breathe Life Into Data

The Opportunity at Komodo Health:

Team: Data Foundations builds the data products behind Komodo's Healthcare Map, the industry's most comprehensive source of de-identified patient data, with more than 1 trillion linked events. We build Burrow, our query and indexing engine, written in Rust. Burrow powers Komodo's applications today, and soon Marmot, our AI platform, returning patient populations in under 300 milliseconds. That's fast enough to feel instant, and no other healthcare data analytics platform responds at that speed. We are a small, senior, hands-on team that builds with AI tools every day.

This role exists to design, build, and scale Burrow as it becomes the engine behind more of Komodo's products. As a Staff-level IC, you'll set technical direction for how the engine stores, indexes, and serves data, and for the APIs that our applications and AI agents rely on. You will partner with Product, Platform, and Labs@Komodo (our applied AI team) to keep Healthcare Map data fast, cost-efficient, and reliable at enterprise scale.

Komodo Health uses modern engineering and AI to tackle healthcare's biggest challenges, turning extraordinary amounts of data into meaningful insights. In this role, you’ll build the core of Komodo's platform and help shape a culture of technical excellence and transparency.
