About Us

The enterprise engineering team is looking for an experienced backend engineer who will create and maintain stable, scalable foundational services that can be leveraged by other engineering teams, based off solid architectural principles. We have an exciting roadmap for the coming year: end-user authorization, product security features like SCIM, secrets management and data governance capabilities. These security and enterprise experiences are among the top priorities for the company as we continue to build momentum and growth in selling dbt Cloud to the largest organizations.

You’ll be joining a collaborative team of engineers; and as a Senior Engineer on the team, you will prioritize and tackle problems as they arise, working iteratively with product management, security and QA to deliver a great experience for our dbt Cloud administrators and end users.

Today we serve some of the largest data-driven organizations in the world, enabling them to make decisions based on the knowledge at the core of their business. Your work directly impacts dbt Lab’s mission by expanding the organizations we serve and the data practitioners we reach. You will have an opportunity to flex into a security mindset while bringing your software architecture and programming skills. You will also have an opportunity to mentor and guide other junior engineers across engineering and espousing for platform-focused security.

In this role, you can expect to:

• Work on enhancing the enterprise-grade authentication and authorization platform that enables Single Sign-On, Role Based Access Control and User and Token management.
• Build and maintain stable, scalable foundational services that can be leveraged by other engineering teams, based off solid architectural principles and cross-team collaboration.
• Design and develop reliable, secure, highly available and delightful experiences for both customer personas: the dbt Cloud admin and the end user.

• Are able to balance speed of delivery with designing scalable, reusable components.
• Are passionate about design and code reviews that help grow the team.

• Are ready to go outside of the team’s realm when there are infrastructure-related dependencies and collaborate with other teams to aid the delivery of team features.
• Ensure high programming standards by writing unit, functional, and integration tests.
• Have a systematic problem-solving approach coupled with strong communication skills and a sense of ownership and drive.

You'll have an edge if you:

Who we are

At dbt Labs, we have developed strong opinions on how companies should practice analytics.

Specifically, we believe that:

• Code-based transformations offer unmatched flexibility and transparency across various “multi-player” development to power everyone in the organization to collaborate on a common language
• Data analysts should adopt similar practices and tools to software developers
• Critical analytics infrastructure should be controlled by its users as open source software
• Analytic code itself — not just analytics tools — will increasingly be open source

It turns out that a lot of other people believe this too! Today, there are 50,000 teams using dbt every week, 100,000 dbt Community members, and 5,100 companies paying for dbt Cloud. Our customers include JetBlue, Hubspot, Vodafone New Zealand, and Dunelm. dbt is synonymous with the practice of analytics engineering, defining an entire industry. We’re backed by top investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Sequoia Capital, and Altimeter.

We're committed to building an inclusive team that welcomes a diversity of perspectives, people, and backgrounds regardless of race, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, religion, disability, citizenship, veteran status, or any other protected status.
