  • Influence Product Direction : Act as a liaison by gathering field insights and providing critical feedback to the Product team to shape the future of our platform.
  • Develop and Grow : Become an expert in Airflow, workflow orchestration, and the data engineering landscape as you collaborate across departments and work on impactful projects.

What you bring to the role:

  • Experience and Expertise : 2+ years in a Sales Engineering, Solutions Engineering, Consulting or similar role within the data space, ideally with experience in modern data tools like Snowflake, Databricks, Fivetran, or Tableau.
  • Data Engineering Know-How : Familiarity with core data engineering concepts such as orchestration, ELT, Git, and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC).
  • Effective Communication : Strong verbal and written communication skills to simplify complex technical concepts for diverse audiences.
  • Curiosity and Customer Empathy : A genuine desire to understand customer needs, patience, and empathy to support them through challenges.
  • Drive to Innovate : Eagerness to learn and experiment with new technical concepts, tools, and approaches to stay ahead in the data industry.

Bonus points if you have:

  • Hands-on Python scripting skills for data pipeline support.
  • Experience with Apache Airflow or other open-source data tools.
  • Background in designing data workflows in a production environment.
  • Customer-facing experience in a technical or consultative role.
