About us
We’re a YC-backed startup (S21) building a next-gen data integration tool. We’ve raised $4M in funding and hundreds of customers love us including Ramp, Webflow, and Descript.

What we’re building
You probably already know a million different data integration tools. Zapier, Fivetran, Hightouch, Workato, Airbyte, etc.

Each of these tools does a different type of integration:

  • Zapier = automations
  • Fivetran = ETL
  • Hightouch = rETL

We’re building the first ever all-in-one integration tool: syncing, automation, and ETL… all in a single platform. We started with 2-way sync and now we’re building out the rest.

Data integration is a massive market (which is why those million companies exist). We think there’s an opportunity to build the biggest data integration company yet if we do this right.

The team

TL;DR -> mostly senior engineers

Curtis, founder -> ex-Microsoft, sold last company to Google, ex-Google Maps/Area 120

Ryder, engineer -> ex-Google Maps/Area 120

Chris, engineer -> former CTO of Battlesnake, founder of multiple game studios

Matthew, founder -> former founder, PM

The role

Help build out the first ever all-in-one integration tool. We’re 4 full-time, so everyone does a bit of everything. Frontend, backend, talking to customers, product thinking, etc. Whatever the opposite is of just taking tickets.

We’ve purposefully built a small team of highly effective people who require very little management. Same goes for this role. You’ll get to own a ton of the product decisions, help build the culture, and play a key role in creating something special.

Who we’re looking for

  • You live in a US time zone (or alternatively, are willing to work during a US time zone’s work hours)
  • You can be trusted with significant pieces of the product
  • You just know how to get stuff done
  • You’re an amazing communicator (concise, clear)
  • You want the next company you join to be the place you do the best work of your career
  • You’d rather run through walls than rest and vest at Big Tech
  • You’ve had at least one full-time job before (3-10 yrs experience)
  • (Nice-to-have) You’ve previously worked on an integration product (data pipelines, workflow automations, API integrations, etc.)

Our stack

  • Google Cloud
  • TypeScript
  • Node/Express backend
  • Next.js frontend (React, Mantine)
  • Postgres and Redis data stores

How we work

  • Fully remote
  • Use a tool called Gather as our virtual office (think Pokemon x Zoom for work)
  • Only 1 hr of standing meetings per week (30min for planning, 30min for 1:1) so we can do actual work
  • Classic startup software stack (Slack, Notion, Linear)

Benefits

  • Three weeks PTO in addition to holidays and sick days
  • Top-tier health, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401k contributions
