Data Engineer at Tinybird – United States

Someone to define data architecture for some of our clients. We don't know exactly what's the perfect role name for this, so we prefer to explain what we need from you, so you can pick the right name just in case you don't like the one we've chosen.

• Understand our client’s business goals and technical requirements, and turn complex problems into understandable, achievable solutions using Tinybird.

• You will help and teach our customers to work in real-time at scale.

• You will work on complex optimization problems to reduce latencies and to increase overall solution performance.

• Develop quick prototypes to illustrate how certain things work or what is the best way to go about something. Writing efficient SQL is important here, our platform is heavily based on SQL.

• In this company, everyone is part of the product team. While your focus might be on helping customers succeed, if the things you learn while helping customers don’t end up driving our roadmap, then we are doing something wrong.

• You are located in the US.

Bonus Points: Experience working with ClickHouse, or other real-time data technologies.

• You’ll join a fast-growing, transparent, and collaborative company where your work has real impact.
• We’re remote-first, but you’ll have opportunities to connect with your teammates at company offsites and events.
• Learning and growth are part of our DNA — we encourage curiosity and initiative.
• Diversity and inclusion are central to our values. We welcome all applicants, even if you don’t meet 100% of the qualifications.

• Work remotely. This time we are focusing on people based in US.
• As we’re in the early stages, your contributions will have a significant impact on everything we do.
• We believe in transparency, so you’ll always be in the loop about what’s happening.

• On a daily basis, you will be working with customers. You might be helping a new customer get started with Tinybird and guiding them on the best way to integrate Tinybird into their data stack. Or, you could be working on optimizing a use case for one of our most experienced clients. Many of our customers ingest billions of rows in real time and need to use that same data to make decisions in the same moment—for example, detecting fraudulent transactions or deciding what to offer someone based on their history and current browsing.
• Here, you'll always have the opportunity to work with different types of clients and at various scales of data.
• You’ll also collaborate with other teams. You might work with the product team to figure out the most effective way to solve a problem or ensure they understand what our customers are demanding. Or you might work with the sales-engineering team to hand over a customer or understand how you can help in a PoC.
• If you enjoy challenges, are a constant learner, and like sharing your knowledge and helping others, then this is for you—apply now.

• Unlimited PTO. We will not count the days you take off, but we insist you take at least 22 days off per year. Plus, your birthday off and public holidays… but, who’s counting?
• Up to $3,000 home office setup allowance.
• Flexible remote work, with team meetups and offsites throughout the year

• First contact meeting to introduce ourselves and get to know you.
• You will have to solve a simple async test. There is no time limit (although we encourage you to not spend more than 2 hours). The aim is not to solve the problem but to see how you approach a problem and how you think about it - the reasoning is more important than the solution. The review of this is structured as a role-play where we are the customers and you the Tinybird data engineer.
• If you succeed on the previous test you will have a second meeting with other members of the team.
• And finally, we make you an offer.
