About Pachyderm:

Pachyderm is the leader in data versioning and pipelines for MLOps. We’re building the data foundation that allows data science teams to automate and scale their machine learning lifecycle while guaranteeing reproducibility. With over $40 million in three rounds of funding from leading investors like Benchmark, Microsoft M12, and Y Combinator, Pachyderm is committed to building industrial strength capabilities for Data Centric AI. Pachyderm offers a commercial Enterprise Edition and an open source Community Edition. Pachyderm helps customers get their ML and AI projects to market faster, lower data processing and storage costs, and supports strict data governance requirements.

Pachyderm is growing fast and still small, so joining means you are getting in right at the ground floor and that you will have an enormous impact on the success and direction of the company and product. Pachyderm has always and will always embrace a “Remote-first” approach to growing our team. This allows us to hire a diverse group of individuals across the country (and world!) while giving our team members the flexibility to work from anywhere. Being a member of The Pach means joining a supportive team that cares about you, values kindness and works hard to create an open and transparent workplace.

The Role

Love Docker, Kubernetes, Golang, and distributed systems?

As a senior engineer, you will provide technical leadership to our Cloud Infrastructure group. You will have a significant impact on the evolution of Pachyderm Hub’s architecture. Our mission is to build the best in class scalable data science platform as a service. You will be a highly effective developer, mentor, and own the technical direction for the product. You will lead the team by example and bias towards solving problems through design for long term stickiness. You are a passionate and pragmatic technologist who works collaboratively and genuinely invests in leveling up engineers around you. You are excited by building an exceptional platform service and are able to effectively drive technical decisions.

While your primary focus will of course be building the core product, you’ll also have direct exposure to our users and customers. You will have a significant influence on our product roadmap.

Pachyderm is just a small team right now, so you'd be getting in right at the ground floor and have an enormous impact on the success and direction of the company and product.
