Staff Software Engineer, Metadata

Fivetran and dbt Labs are building data pipelines to power the modern data stack for thousands of companies.

We're looking for a staff software engineer to be a technical leader on our Metadata team, which owns the metadata layer of the dbt platform — the discovery API, catalog, lineage, and run history services that let customers understand, trust, and act on what their data is doing.

As a Staff Software Engineer, you'll contribute to the technical direction for the team. You'll own the architecture of major subsystems, lead complex projects that span multiple engineers, and raise the bar for design and code quality across the team. You'll spend your time on the hardest technical problems, and multiply the team through design reviews, coaching, and mentorship.

This is a full-time, fully remote position. We do expect the successful candidate to come to the Oakland, CA office from time to time.

Technologies You'll Use

Python, GraphQL, Postgres, Snowflake, Kafka, Kubernetes, Docker, AWS, GCP, Datadog
