What the job involves
- Ready to build the systems that drive a high-growth company? You'll sit directly in our Product team. We're looking for someone to build AI-powered workflows and high-leverage tools that turn big ideas into working, revenue-driving systems. It’s a chance to take full ownership, ship real code, and experiment with the latest AI tech
- Ship internal tools and AI-powered workflows that support Product and Product Operations. Examples could include automated contract onboarding, triage of customer requests, and internal Q&A
- Partner with Product stakeholders and leadership to identify inefficiencies and automate repetitive workflows
- Build prototypes using LLMs, embeddings, and retrieval techniques to enhance product execution

Our take
Developing data pipelines is essential for modern businesses to stay competitive, but building them can be a slow process. Workflow management tools for data engineering pipelines such as Apache Airflow makes the development process significantly simpler, but managing it manually is still a repetitive, convoluted, and time-consuming process.
Astronomer provides a data orchestration platform called Astro powered by Apache Airflow, aiming to automate its data pipeline management processes, unify data flows, and ultimately help businesses to access the software's full potential without DevOps. The company claims that its collaborative system helps teams to build data pipelines faster, increase data availability, ensure runtime environments are reliable within cloud infrastructures, and provide a holistic overview of business data.
Whilst it is undeniable that the company faces competition from other data orchestration platforms, Astronomer has been smart to recognize the presence of inefficiencies in Apache Airflow, despite its great potential. The company is thus providing solutions to improve it, not replace it, a unique perspective that shows great potential for Astronomer to disrupt the market.
