Company mission

Fivetran's mission is to solve the hardest part of building a data-driven company: centralising all your data in one place.

Role

Who you are

  • 3-5+ years programming experience that ship production code
  • Well versed in algorithm ands data structures
  • Knowledge of relational database
  • Demonstrate attention to detail

Desirable

  • Previous experience working in linux kernel or device driver development
  • Experience in data processing (ETL, ELT) and/or cloud-based platforms
  • Experience in designing and developing file, event, application, or database connectors
  • Experienced working in a cloud environment utilizing AWS, GCP, Docker, or similar technologies

What the job involves

  • Fivetran is looking for a Software Engineer II to join our fast-growing company. As a part of the Oracle Connector Team, you will be responsible to help build new features of our data pipeline service, help improve our software architecture, and maintain reliable operation of the service.
  • We're looking for someone who wants to learn and apply the key values that make our product great, dive deep into complex investigations into data replication and build a world class ELT solution for Oracle systems
  • Fivetran is the epitome of data-driven-development — our engineering team is focused on building a world class product that:
  • Facilitates Data Analytics — join our mission to reliably deliver best-in class schemas, and clean data, designed to be intuitively useful to analysts
  • Contributes to our Community — help develop tools like Data Lakes, SQL-based Transformations, and schema explorers to empower analysts to choose the best tools, and to make those tools more powerful
  • Is Absolutely Dependable — work to make Fivetran the most reliable and secure component of our customers’ data infrastructure
  • Dive deep into data replication debugging, analyzing existing code that is in use by hundreds of customers today. Some clients are operating the largest Oracle clusters in the world
  • Contribute to the efforts to the maintenance and improvement of existing connectors; call for improvement in all areas of Fivetran's codebase and infrastructure
  • Be a part of the process to move a high performance client side service to the cloud and operate at scale
  • Be practical enough to build and iterate on the system while it’s in production
  • Technologies You’ll Use:
  • We emphasize using no-nonsense tools, and take great pride in the simplicity and effectiveness of the systems we build. Our back-end is built on Java, Postgres, and Kubernetes, and our front-end is built on React and Typescript

Our take

After a few slower years since graduating from Y Combinator in 2013, Fivetran has skyrocketed, consistently raising large sums of funding, including an Andreessen Horowitz-backed $565m Series D round in 2021.

Customers are mostly data analysts at companies with inefficient database schema, who suffer from a high risk of project failures. Fivetran offers rapid integration of complex data services into cloud warehouses, tagging onto the trend towards cloud-based data systems.

By developing and continuously improving cloud applications that adapt to changing APIs and data schemas, Fivetran is attracting customers who seek long-term data viability. Fivetran also benefits from being easy to set up and integrate into a client's existing software.

After acquiring HVR, a data integration competitor, and Teleport Data, Fivetran continues to add functionality and customers via acquisition. A round of funding in 2023 paved the way for expansion into European and Asian markets.
