Fivetran
About this role
Fivetran moves customer data into warehouses, and this seat is on the Platform Ops team that makes
Fivetran's own engineers productive. You build and improve internal developer environments,
self serve tooling and observability, with the explicit goal of making the recommended way to ship a
change also the easiest way. There is an AI thread that is practical rather than decorative: building
workflows and automation that improve infrastructure operations, including faster triage, automated
runbook steps and better self service for common issues. The posting says you prioritise by looking
at where time is actually being lost today, naming slow builds, flaky tests and manual releases.
Apply if you like platform engineering where the users sit next to you and the feedback is immediate.

Who this is for
⚠️ This posting states no years of experience anywhere. Rather than guess a number we have left the
experience figure empty, which is the standing rule on this board. The consequence is that this row
sits in no experience band on the page filter, so if you filter by years you will not see it. Read
the requirements below and judge the level yourself: the scope (owning shared systems used by the
whole engineering org) reads senior, and the title says Senior.
The role. Join the Platform Ops team within Platform Engineering to enable developer productivity by
building and improving developer tooling and environments, and by improving productivity tools around
observability. The team builds the shared systems and workflows engineers rely on every day, internal
developer environments and self serve tooling, so that the recommended way to ship changes is the
easiest way. This is described as a platform tooling role focused on reusable capabilities and self
service workflows adopted across teams.
The AI part. You would help develop AI based workflows for productivity and efficiency, including
automation that improves infrastructure operations, with faster triage, automated runbook steps and
better self service for common issues given as examples.
How work gets prioritised, which tells you something about the team. You prioritise the highest impact
problems by looking at where time is being lost today: slow builds, flaky tests, manual release steps.
⚠️ Check the priority flag before you apply to any Fivetran role. Fivetran publishes an internal
"Priority Status" field on some requisitions. Values seen include "P3 (Future Open)" and "P2 (Internal
Resources)", and roles carrying them are not open to external applicants even though the apply page
loads normally. This posting carries no such flag, which is why it is here; two other Fivetran roles
were left out today for exactly that reason.
Office. Fivetran's Bangalore roles run a hybrid model of two days in the office each week.
Merger note. Fivetran and dbt Labs are combining, and the postings warn you will see both names
during recruiting.
