Software Engineer II, Data Warehouse

About the Role & Team The Data Warehouse team builds the systems that connect Amplitude to the broader data ecosystem, including import connectors from external platforms such as Snowflake, Azure Blob Storage, S3, Databricks, and more, and export infrastructure that pushes data back to the tools customers already use.
