📋 Description

• Own and evolve ClickHouse's Python connector and SDK ecosystem, raising the bar on performance, reliability, and API design. • Build and maintain integrations with orchestration platforms (Airflow, Dagster, Prefect) and transformation tools (dbt) to enterprise-grade quality standards. • Drive the AI/LLM integration strategy: designing connectors and patterns that make ClickHouse a natural fit in RAG architectures, ML feature pipelines, and LLM-powered data applications. • Engage actively with the open-source community: triage issues, support contributors, advocate for users, and shape the roadmap based on real-world feedback. • Collaborate with Product, Cloud, and other engineering teams to align integration work with broader platform priorities. • Bring a practitioner's perspective to roadmap decisions, grounding prioritization in genuine Data Engineer and Data Scientist workflows.

🎯 Requirements

• 7+ years of software development experience, including hands-on time as a Data Engineer, Data Scientist, or ML Engineer. • Deep, proven experience designing, building, and maintaining production-grade Python connectors, SDKs, or integrations for at least one major platform (orchestration, BI, MLOps, or data transformation). • Hands-on experience applying AI/ML in production data-engineering contexts: embedding generation, vector search, feature pipelines, or LLM-powered tooling that shipped and ran in production. • Solid experience with the Python data ecosystem: Pandas, NumPy, Pydantic, and related libraries. • Strong database fundamentals: SQL, data modeling, query optimization, and familiarity with OLAP/analytical databases. • Solid experience with concurrent Python: threading, multiprocessing, and async patterns. • Outstanding written and verbal communication; comfortable collaborating across engineering functions and with open-source communities.

We currently operate in over 20 countries. • Healthcare - Employer contributions towards your healthcare. • Equity in the company - Every new team member who joins our company receives stock options. • Time off - Flexible time off in the US, generous entitlement in other countries. • A $500 Home office setup if you’re a remote employee. • Global Gatherings – We believe in the power of in-person connection and offer opportunities to engage with colleagues at company-wide offsites.
