Company mission
Making data available and actionable to everyone, everywhere.
Role
Who you are
- Expert knowledge of modern Java and Kotlin in backend applications
- Strong knowledge and experience of working with Python. You don’t have to be an expert, but you’d have to be comfortable in Python codebases
- 8+ years of software engineering experience
- Experience using LLM APIs to create tools or interest in doing so
- Experience building developer tools is a plus
- Experience working directly with the users of your products, onboarding and supporting them
- Experience leading an engineering team, leveling up other engineers around you, and supporting other teams in your organization. If you’ve been a team lead, but you’re choosing to focus on building great dev tools yourself, this is a great team for you. You’ll be able to work highly autonomously
- An insatiable desire to ship, relentlessly improving user experience
- Ability to influence without authority and work with engineers junior and senior
- A passion for continuous learning and improvement (both at a personal and team level)
- Belief in our values
What the job involves
- With Connector Builder and the Marketplace, we’ll commoditize API data pipelines, and make reading data from any APIs consistently, reliably, and fast available to all engineers, so they can focus on their application logic instead of data pipelines
- Connector Builder is a powerful low-code IDE that is highly flexible. It supports hundreds of connectors already, and supports custom Python components where low-code YAML spec is too constraining
- It also integrates a Co-pilot-style LLM that helps folks make connectors faster, so you get a chance to work on an AI dev tool!
- You will focus on the Connector Builder backend. It’s a Java / Kotlin application, running in K8s, that works with the Python Airbyte low-code CDK framework. You’ll help us make Builder even more extensible, while keeping it secure, fast, and robust
- Build new features in Connector Builder and Marketplace
- A few examples: Co-pilot-style LLM integration in connector builder, contributing PRs with changes to existing connectors from Builder UI, OAuth flow support from within Connector Builder, automatic manifest compatibility migrations when we roll out larger upgrades
- Empower the rest of the Marketplace team, community engineers, and Python sources team to use Builder to make our existing connectors great
- Work on making Connector Builder flexible and extensible yet secure
- Work closely with the community of engineers using Builder in and outside of Airbyte. Engage with the open source community via Slack, events, and GitHub issues and PRs
- Help shape our roadmap — spike and prototype projects, advocate for important initiatives
- Mentor other engineers
- Write high-leverage code
Our take
Historically, data teams have had to build and maintain their own data connectors, often having to work around pre-built connectors, as most “long tail” data connectors are not supported by closed-source ELT technologies.
Airbyte’s open-source data integration platform is setting the new standard of moving and consolidating data from different sources to data warehouses, data lakes, or databases, enabling teams to adapt pre-built connectors to fit their unique needs.
Over the last year, more than 9,000 companies have synced data using Airbyte, connecting PostgreSQL, Facebook Ads, Salesforce, Stripe, (and more) to destinations including Snowflake, BigQuery Databricks and Redshift. The company also made a strategic move in acquiring Grouparoo and integrating with Dagster.
The unicorn company has raised significant Series B capital (led by Altimeter Capital and Coatue Management). Since its launch in mid-2020, Airbyte has become the fastest-growing open-source data integration platform, and launched the first open-source Python library for moving data, indicating that it is well set to maintain its growth trend.
