Our Vision: At Neo4j, we have always strived to help the world make sense of data. As business, society and knowledge become increasingly connected, our technology promotes innovation by helping organizations to find and understand data relationships. We created, drive and lead the graph database category, and we’re disrupting how organizations leverage their data to innovate and stay competitive. The Team: Cypher is the query language of the Neo4j Graph Database. It is similar to SQL, but designed specifically for graph databases and for finding patterns in the graph. In 2024 ISO released the first database query language standard since SQL, called GQL, which was heavily influenced by Cypher. Cypher is mostly GQL compliant already and the goal is to be fully compliant. The Cypher Surface team is one of five Cypher teams and handles the first part (the surface) of the Cypher stack including things like parsing and semantic analysis of the incoming query. The team is also responsible for the procedure framework, and maintains some of the default procedure libraries shipped with Neo4j. The Role: We are looking to strengthen the Cypher Surface team with two additional software engineers. The main purpose of the recruitment is to put more focus on developing and extending the procedures for using external Gen AI tools from Neo4j, but you will be part of the team like everyone else and not dedicated just to that library. The Cypher stack is mostly written in Scala, while the procedures are written in Java. The teams are self-organised and set up their own ways of working, within the guidelines of the overall ways of working in Engineering. As an engineer, you have a lot of freedom in how you carry out the tasks ahead of you. Skills
