Solutions Architect

At Cube, we're redefining how organizations deliver, consume, and automate data and analytics across teams, tools, and AI agents. Our mission is to enable Agentic Analytics, where AI agents work alongside humans on a shared semantic foundation.

If you're fascinated by building core data and AI infrastructure, the kind that powers analytics at the world's most advanced technology companies, but want the agility and ownership of a startup, Cube is where you'll thrive.

With 19,000+ GitHub stars and 13,000+ community members, Cube is trusted by 400+ companies, including Maersk, Kimberly-Clark, Freshworks, Patagonia, Webflow, Brex, Deel, Tubi, Walmart, and Drata. Our platform empowers AI agents with a universal semantic foundation, enabling autonomous analytics at scale while maintaining consistency, security, and performance across BI tools, spreadsheets, and embedded applications.

What You'll Do

Technical Leadership & Architecture

• Design and architect end-to-end semantic layer solutions using Cube, integrating with customers' existing data warehouses (e.g., Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift).
• Build comprehensive data models in YAML or JavaScript that define metrics, dimensions, and business logic to support data analysis and decision-making.
• Develop proof-of-concepts and technical demonstrations that showcase Cube's capabilities on customer data.
• Guide customers on best practices for data modeling, caching strategies, access control, and performance optimization.

Customer Engagement

• Lead technical discovery sessions to understand customer data architecture, analytics requirements, and business objectives.
• Conduct hands-on workshops and training sessions to enable customer teams to use Cube effectively.
• Partner with Sales to provide technical expertise during the evaluation process.
• Serve as a trusted technical advisor throughout the customer lifecycle, from pre-sales through post-implementation.

Solution Development

• Write complex SQL queries to analyze customer data and validate solution designs.
• Conduct data analysis to identify opportunities for optimization and architectural improvements.
• Build integrations between Cube and downstream tools (BI platforms, notebooks, custom applications).
• Create technical documentation, reference architectures, and implementation guides.

Product Collaboration

• Provide customer feedback to Product and Engineering teams to influence the roadmap.
• Contribute to internal tooling and automation to improve solution delivery.
• Develop reusable patterns and frameworks for common implementation scenarios to facilitate efficient and consistent development.

What You Bring
