From Fivetran’s founding until now, our mission has remained the same: to make access to data as simple and reliable as electricity. With Fivetran, customer data arrives in their warehouses, canonical and ready to query, with no engineering or maintenance required. We’re proud that more organizations continue to leverage our technology every day to become truly data-driven.
About Us
Fivetran and dbt Labs are bringing together two industry-leading companies with a shared mission: helping organizations unlock the full value of their data.
Together, we’re delivering the data infrastructure layer that helps organizations move, transform, and trust their data — from the moment data moves, through every transformation, to the context teams and AI systems rely on.
Fivetran helps organizations automate data movement across the systems, clouds, engines, and tools they rely on. dbt Labs pioneered analytics engineering, helping teams transform data into reliable, governed insights. Together, we support thousands of organizations as they build a trusted foundation for analytics, AI, and better business decisions.
As we bring our teams and technology together, we’re building on the strengths of both companies while continuing to deliver the products and experiences our customers know and trust. It’s an exciting time to join us: we’re creating a company with the scale, talent, and technology to help more organizations put their data to work with greater speed, confidence, and impact.
During this transition period, you may see references to both Fivetran and dbt Labs throughout our recruiting process as we integrate our teams, systems, and career sites.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Sr Software Engineer to join the Platform Ops team (Platform Engineering) and enable developer productivity by building and improving developer tooling and environments, and by improving other productivity tools around observability. Our team builds the shared systems and workflows engineers rely on every day—internal developer environments and self-serve tooling that makes the recommended way to ship changes the easiest way. This is a platform tooling role with a focus is on reusable capabilities and self-service workflows adopted across teams.
You’ll also help develop AI-based workflows for productivity and efficiency, including automation that improves infrastructure operations (for example, faster triage, automated runbook steps, and better self-service for common issues). You’ll prioritize the highest-impact problems by looking at where time is being lost today (slow builds, flaky tests, manual release steps, repetitive operational work) and turning that into concrete projects. You’ll set clear success metrics up front and use them to guide design decisions and rollouts.
Expect to partner closely with engineering teams to drive adoption, document changes, and iterate based on feedback. You’ll drive cross-team work across internal tooling, developer environments, observability, and reliability, focusing on measurable improvements (for example: shorter lead time, fewer incidents, and faster recovery). You’ll add automation and enable developer workflows across all three major cloud environments (AWS, Azure, and GCP).
Over time, you’ll own medium-sized projects end-to-end: identify the highest-friction workflows with partner teams, build and ship improvements, roll them out safely, and iterate based on adoption and measurable outcomes (for example: faster builds, fewer flaky tests, shorter time to debug, and less operational toil). You’ll collaborate closely with Platform Engineering, Release Engineering, Security, and product engineering teams to make improvements that are easy to adopt and maintain.

Most open roles are attached to an office and follow the hybrid schedule; a minority are posted as fully remote. Remote roles in the US are scoped to named states rather than blanket US-remote, with exactly one posting open to any US location. Remote roles outside the US are scoped to a single named country, such as Australia, Germany, Ireland, Japan, the United Kingdom, or Costa Rica.
Pay ranges are published in US and Canada postings only. Roles in Europe and Asia Pacific carry no published band. Fivetran states that its ranges are determined by role, level, and location, and that individual pay also reflects skills, experience, and market demand. Some roles add a separate on-target earnings figure for incentive pay.
Restricted stock units are provided to all new hires, with refresh grants annually. The careers page also lists paid parental leave starting on your first day plus a baby cash incentive, two volunteer days off per year, free lunches, home office reimbursement, and a monthly cell phone stipend. Vacation, holiday, and sick time are described only as tailored to your location, with no day count published.
Yes, and Fivetran documents it. The company publishes a 2026 Benefits Overview for each of twelve markets, covering Australia, Canada, Germany, India, Ireland, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Serbia, Singapore, the UK, and the US, and links the full set from every job posting. Postings also note that employer-paid medical insurance and stock grants may vary by country and worker type. Health and retirement programs are offered to all full-time employees based on their location.
Fivetran and dbt Labs have completed a merger, and some postings carry dbt-origin location labels for Austin, New York, and Philadelphia, cities that are not on Fivetran's own office list. Wording in those dbt-origin postings can reflect dbt's earlier policies rather than Fivetran's, so treat the office expectation stated on the careers page as the current model and confirm the cadence for any specific role with the recruiter.
The careers page lists fifteen hiring departments. Alongside a dedicated Fivetran AI group, they include Engineering, Systems Engineering, Product, Business Intelligence, Customer Solutions Group, Customer Support, Sales, Alliances, Marketing, Strategy, Strategy and Operations, Finance, Legal, and HR.
