Airbyte is the open-source standard for EL(T). We enable data teams to replicate data from applications, APIs, and databases to data warehouses, lakes, and other destinations. We believe only an open-source approach can solve the problem of data integration, as it enables us to cover the long tail of integrations while enabling teams to adapt pre-built connectors to their needs.
Within the past 24 months, we've built over 200+ connectors and we've had 25,000+ companies replicating data with us. We've raised $181M from some of the world's top investors (Benchmark, Accel, Altimeter, Coatue, Y Combinator, etc.) and believe in product-led growth, where we build something awesome and let our product bring the users, rather than an outbound sales engine with cold calls.
Airbyte is remote friendly, with most of the team still based in Silicon Valley. We’re fully transparent as a company. Our company handbook , core values , methodology , strategy , and roadmap are open to all.
If you find this role exciting, we encourage you to apply even if you think you don’t meet all requirements.

Responsible for the entire people function at Airbyte, including People Operations, Recruiting, and Organizational Development, you and your team will develop a strategic end-to-end talent cycle: talent acquisition / recruiting, learning & development, performance management, engagement, and succession planning.

- Previously owned the People strategy at a hyper-growth SaaS company
