Who are we We’re building the “Terraform for operators” — an AI‑generated schema layer driving a white‑labeled data warehouse that lets physical‑goods companies evolve their systems of record as fast as their business operations change. Think AI foundation models driving schema migrations, real‑time observability across ops/finance data, complex git versioning of schema and data changes, and workflows you compose like infrastructure code. What you'll do Design the core EAV data model & schema‑as‑code platform that powers every customer’s instance, balancing extreme flexibility with transactional integrity. Build a Git‑style version‑control + migration engine capable of rolling forward/back complex schema and data changes on live production tenants in enterprise settings. Engineer AI‑assisted tooling that uses foundation models to propose, validate, and apply new customer schemas and workflow definitions. Scale our white‑labeled data warehouse (BigQuery/Snowflake‑like) for high‑volume, low‑latency analytics and automation workloads. Create Terraform‑like declarative APIs & SDKs so ops teams can treat business processes as code while you ensure security, tenancy, and performance. Deliver end‑to‑end observability & search across supply‑chain, finance, and ops data—surfacing business logic in plain language through AI‑native search. Build Enterprise guard rails into a composable system to proactively detect anomalous behavior or risky emergent patterns Mentor and shape engineering culture , partnering with product and design to turn unsexy back‑office pain into elegant, resilient systems loved by operators. What you're good at Expertise building large scale ETL on databases like Postgres, Elasticsearch, DuckDB, Memgraph (Graph DB), etc. Using cloud services to build + deploy reliable web applications. Working in abstractions to build complex graph‑based architectures that scale. About you Team player: you bring positivity, openness, and curiosity to the team every day. Growth mindset: everything is an opportunity to learn and improve yourself, the team, and the company. Craftsmanship: you care about making something of quality. Pragmatic: you make the right decision based on circumstance, not theory. Low Ego: you work best in collaborative environments where everyone supports the team. We have top‑notch benefits Premium comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance. Unlimited PTO and mandatory US Holidays. 401(k), immediate eligibility. Fitness, commuter (BART/MUNI/CalTrain), and equipment stipends. Premier office space with snacks, drinks (caffeinated, carbonated, coffee), and guest appearances by Nicolas Cage.
