Why This Might Be Worth It

• Impact at scale from day one. Your code processes billions of rows for companies like DoorDash and LinkedIn.
• The AI wave is real for us. We're not bolting AI onto a legacy product. Intelligent connectors, context-aware data movement, and agentic workflows are the core of what we're building next.
• Small team, big problems. You'll have direct access to the CTO, real influence over product direction, and the autonomy to make significant technical bets.
  • Recognized platform with startup energy. The credibility of enterprise validation with the speed and ownership of an early-stage company.
