Senior Infrastructure Engineer

About Us

We’re looking for an Infrastructure Engineer with GCP expertise to help us build a seamless, reliable platform for dbt Cloud across AWS, Azure, and GCP. Our team’s mission is to reduce cognitive load for developers by providing a stable, observable, and easy-to-use infrastructure platform. While we support all three clouds, we’re specifically looking for someone to deepen our GCP capabilities as we expand multi-tenancy.

Over the past year, we’ve designed and operationalised a next-gen cell-based architecture, scaling dbt Cloud across all three cloud providers. Now, we’re focused on automation, self-service, and improving developer velocity through better tooling, processes, and infrastructure design.

As an senior engineer on our team, you’ll work on medium-sized projects, helping to refine our platform while ensuring performance, reliability, and a great developer experience. You’ll collaborate across teams, solve real infrastructure challenges, and help shape the future of multi-cloud dbt Cloud.

In this role, you can expect to:

• Design, operate, and support infrastructure systems with parity across tenancy models (single vs multi) and public clouds (AWS, Azure, and GCP) - and work with engineering teams to get their services consistently deployed to those environments
• Bring GCP expertise to the team, helping us strengthen and scale our infrastructure as we expand dbt Cloud’s multi-cloud capabilities.
• Help create a great developer experience while working with our close partners in Architecture, SRE, Release Engineering, and Security
• Leverage tools and languages such as Terraform, Kubernetes, AWS, Azure, Python, Bash, Helm, ArgoCD, Go, DataDog
• Participate in a balanced on-call rotation in an environment that values continuous improvement, and help to upgrade our tooling and reduce toil

You are a good fit if you have:

• Experience with the clouds, tools, and languages in our stack, especially: AWS\Azure\GCP, Terraform, Kubernetes, Python, and Bash
• Solid experience with declarative Infrastructure as Code - ideally with Terraform or a willingness to learn while leveraging your CloudFormation or ARM\Bicep background.
• Worked asynchronously as part of a fully-remote, distributed team - and have excellent communication and writing skills

You'll have an edge if you have:

• Prior experience in multiple clouds
• More extensive Kubernetes administration and troubleshooting background

Optional:

Qualifications:

• Have 4+ years experience
• Completed enrollment in related bootcamp

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.
