Data Engineer

You’re a generalist data and analytics expert who builds data infrastructure at scale. You act like an owner and have a desire to lead. You’ve likely been a data engineer at traditional companies but you’re ready to be the first data hire at a startup.

Replicate is a complex business and we need solid data infrastructure to guide it. You’ll own this infrastructure.

We’re looking for the right person, not just someone who checks boxes, so you don’t need to satisfy all of these things. But you probably have some of these qualities:

• Experience building from scratch. You’ve set up data stacks and pipelines, not just worked with an existing system.
• Expert at SQL and other common analytics tools. You can turn a question into a query faster and more reliably than GPT-4.
• You think like a software engineer. You put things in GitHub, use continuous integration, give things good names, make it consistent with how we do things in the product. We want to create data systems that integrate with the rest of our systems, not their own silo with a different culture.
• Fast and scrappy. You know how to get 80% of the value with 20% of the effort.
• Experience with usage-based businesses. They’re much more complicated.
• You like helping people. You’re not going to live in a cave, you’re going to be building the tools that make our finance, product, infrastructure, and growth teams successful. You’re not just going to give them numbers, you’re also going to help them tell a story about those numbers.

You’ll be working from our San Francisco office for this role.
