Job Details

Airbyte is the open-source standard for Data Movement. We enable data teams to move data from applications, APIs, unstructured sources, and databases to data warehouses, lakes, AI applications and LLMs. With our approach we are finally solving the need for extensibility and control that every company needs with data.

So far, our customers, users, and ourselves have built over 15,000 connectors and have had 200,000+ companies install Airbyte. We've raised $181M from the world's top investors (Benchmark, Accel, Altimeter, Coatue, Y Combinator, etc.) and we believe in product-led growth, where we build something awesome that all our users love.

We’re committed to providing as much context to our current employees and candidates. The Airbyte company handbook is open to all.

If you find this role exciting, we encourage you to apply even if you think you don’t meet all requirements

Opportunity

Airbyte is taking a big swing to make data available and actionable to everyone, everywhere. Our product manages the extract and load of data, so that developers and data practitioners can focus on building products, not moving data. As an engineer at Airbyte, you'll be part of the team that solves all the data movement challenges that a developer has ever faced, for the last time.

Airbyte is a containerized application that is operated by open-source and self-managed users across a series of platforms (e.g. GKE, EKS, kind, etc). The Deployments team empowers a diverse set of users across these different platforms to deploy and manage Airbyte at scale. This team defines which tools are on the golden path for deploying Airbyte (e.g. Helm, Terraform, etc) and creates a fast, seamless experience for getting started. In addition, it owns the upgrade story, to make sure that after a user has been successful, they continue to be successful as the product evolves.

We have positions open at multiple levels for this role. The “What You'll Need” section describes the minimum level that we have open. We have positions that will challenge a seasoned engineer at any level.

Automate publishing of Airbyte artifacts (new releases, helm charts, terraform provider, etc).
Craft a platform that orchestrates fast, reliable, and observable data movement across all connectors.
Drive step function improvements in performance & reliability at scale.
Build leverage: a week-long task this year should take ten minutes next year
Shape the roadmap for the team.
Write high-leverage code.
