Who is Recruiting from Scratch: Recruiting from Scratch is a premier talent firm that focuses on placing the best product managers, software, and hardware talent at innovative companies. Our team is 100% remote and we work with teams across the United States to help them hire. We work with companies funded by the best investors including Sequoia Capital, Lightspeed Ventures, Tiger Global Management, A16Z, Accel, DFJ, and more. About This Role Building upon Reverse ETL’s ability to use SQL to sync to any SaaS tool, you will be helping build a new product that provides a purpose-built no-code suite of features that enables anyone, regardless of their SQL experience, to activate data directly from their warehouse. Despite being a small team (3 engineers, 1 PM, 1 designer), this is our client’s fastest growing product and already accounts for nearly half of our revenue, which also gives this role the potential to have significant impact! Our client wants a product-minded backend engineer to add to the team. The ideal candidate will be comfortable diving deep into backend and distributed systems and think holistically about architecture, scalability, maintainability, and reliability. They also are looking for someone with strong customer and product thinking and who feels comfortable writing and engaging with product specs. Some of the problems we’ll be working on include: Data Warehouse Performance: We’re consistently pushing the limits of what data warehouses can handle in terms of speed, performance, and interactivity. We explore optimizations generally (e.g. optimizing queries, storing pre-computed state), as well as investigate warehouse-specific improvements. Analytics and Experimentation: How can Hightouch help customers build segments and decide what data they want to sync? How can we facilitate experimentation to downstream tools, including tracking the performance of different audiences? Real-time Audience Syncing: Our users are always interested in faster syncing and fresher data. As warehouses become more real-time and adopt technologies like CDC, we’re excited to explore real-time audience computation and syncing. Generative AI: We’re continuously working on making the user experience of acting on data more seamless, and are optimistic generative AI can enhance user workflows. This is a senior role, but our client has a focus on impact and potential for growth more than years of experience. The salary range for this position is $170,000 – $240,000 USD per year, which is location independent in accordance with their remote-first policy. #J-18808-Ljbffr
