We’re growing fast, and we’re looking for people who are as customer-obsessed as they are technically strong.

The Role

We are seeking a gifted and resourceful Customer Centric Engineer (CCE) to serve as the bridge between our customers and Engineering teams. This is beyond traditional support — it’s a hybrid role where you’ll provide advanced troubleshooting, help guide onboarding, and partner with Engineering and Product teams to shape both the customer experience and the evolution of DataHub itself.

  • Troubleshoot complex issues spanning software configuration, networking, and integrations — including analyzing logs, reproducing issues, and debugging code.
  • Ensure our customers achieve fast and lasting success with DataHub.
  • Act as a trusted advisor, helping customers optimize their usage and proactively address gaps or inefficiencies.
  • Collaborate with product, engineering, and ingestion teams to resolve escalations and improve product functionality.
  • Monitor customer health metrics and advocate internally (alongside our Customer Success team) for improvements based on customer feedback.
  • Contribute to customer-facing resources: FAQs, troubleshooting guides, training materials, and knowledge base articles.
  • Continuously expand your technical skill set through training, certifications, and self-directed learning.

What You’ll Bring

  • 5+ years of experience in software engineering, data engineering, or supporting complex enterprise applications.
  • Expertise and understanding of Python; general understanding of frontend technologies like React, TypeScript, JavaScript, etc.; experience with data pipelines, ELT processes, and the modern data stack.
  • Proficiency with SQL and enterprise data platforms such as Snowflake, BigQuery, dbt, Airflow, Tableau, or Looker.
  • Solid understanding of networking, system architectures, and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP). Understanding of (and experience with) modern orchestration technologies (Kubernetes, GKE, AKE, Docker, etc.)
  • Experience with UNIX commands and system administration/navigation
  • Experience troubleshooting and debugging code in enterprise environments.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills — able to explain technical detail clearly to customers at all levels.
  • A passion for helping customers succeed and a mindset rooted in collaboration and empathy.
  • An appetite for working in a fast-paced startup environment.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
