Airbyte is the open-source standard for EL(T). We enable data teams to replicate data from applications, APIs, and databases to data warehouses, lakes, and other destinations. We believe only an open-source approach can solve the problem of data integration, as it enables us to cover the long tail of integrations while enabling teams to adapt pre-built connectors to their needs.
 
So far, we've built over 350 connectors and have had 35,000+ companies replicating data with us. We've raised $181M from some of the world's top investors (Benchmark, Accel, Altimeter, Coatue, Y Combinator, etc.) and believe in product-led growth, where we build something awesome and let our product bring the users, rather than an outbound sales engine with cold calls.
 
Airbyte is remote friendly, with most of the team still based in Silicon Valley. We’re fully transparent as a company. Our company handbookcore valuesmethodologystrategy and roadmap are open to all.
 
If you find this role exciting, we encourage you to apply even if you think you don’t meet all requirements.
 

Opportunity

The number of possible data integrations is growing at a faster rate than any single engineering team can support: new APIs, filesystems, and databases are born every day. To build thousands of high quality data integrations, we need tools that minimize the effort required to build and maintain them. Airbyte’s Extensibility team builds and maintains the tools needed to produce high quality connectors with a fraction of the effort. Our goal is to make it so easy to build a connector that it would be possible for anyone who wants to move data to do so in a UI in a no-code way. Our tools will provide leverage to help our community and engineers build out connectors. You will be building the connector factory that will bring Airbyte from 400+ to thousands of connectors in 2024.

What You'll Do

  • Drive projects that make Airbyte the best tool for developing connectors
  • Take Airbyte’s Connector Development Kits (CDKs) and no-code connector builder to the next level in terms of features, usability, and performance
  • Build a developer platform to enable maintaining end-to-end maintenance of connectors without writing a line of code
  • Build leverage via engineering: a week-long project this month should be a ten minute task next month
  • Guide product decisions and the team roadmap with engineering perspective
  • Embed or rotate into the platform teams to execute on cross-cutting projects
  • Engage with the open-source community via Github, Slack, or community events

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

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.
