Fivetran
About this role
Fivetran automates data movement into warehouses, and this seat is on the core pipeline service itself: the system that moves terabytes of customer data from source systems into destinations, processed into clean, incremental, automated updates. The posting describes the work as deliberately varied, from patching software through to building new connectors running on a global Kubernetes cluster. The stack is Java, SQL, Kubernetes, Docker, AWS, GCP and CircleCI, and you work with cloud APIs and both SQL and NoSQL databases. One thing to know going in: Fivetran and dbt Labs are merging, and the postings say so, warning candidates they will see both names during recruiting. Fivetran publishes no years figure on this role, so we have not invented one. Apply if you want core data infrastructure rather than analytics work.
Who this is for
Requirements as published:
- The employer publishes no years of experience figure anywhere in this posting. We have left the field empty rather than guess, so this role does not appear when you filter the board by years.
- Strong technical and problem solving skills with recent hands on software development experience.
- Experience with reliable distributed systems, with an emphasis on high volume data management in enterprise or web scale products operating under strict SLAs.
- Broad technical knowledge spanning software development and automation.
- Experience with a wide array of algorithms and data structures.
- Expertise in Java, AWS, cloud based APIs, databases, and software design and programming best practice.
Technologies named in the posting:
- Java, SQL, Kubernetes, Docker, AWS, GCP, CircleCI.
The actual day to day:
- Working on the core data pipeline that moves terabytes of data from customers into their data warehouses.
- Processing that data into clean, incremental, automated updates.
- Working with cloud APIs, SQL and NoSQL databases and event systems.
- Ensuring technical quality for your team and owned services through code contribution, code review and architectural design.
- Mentoring more junior colleagues.
Location and office reality:
- Bengaluru. The posting states this is a full time position based out of the Bangalore office, on a hybrid model with two days a week in the office to collaborate as a team. That is unusually specific and clearer than most postings in this edition.
Honest fit guidance:
- The Senior title with no published years is a gap. Given the requirement for a track record with strict SLA systems, assume mid to senior rather than early career, and ask about levelling.
- Fivetran is merging with dbt Labs and its postings warn you will encounter both brands in the process. That is disclosed rather than hidden, and it is not a red flag, just something to expect.
- Two office days a week is one of the lighter hybrid requirements in this edition.
