dbt Labs is looking to build a VSCode extension with a new engine to empower thousands of developers, aiming to solve the problem of enabling data teams to transform raw data into reliable, actionable insights more effectively.
Requirements
- Strong fullstack skills (React/TypeScript, Node/Python, SQL) and comfort owning the whole flow
- Hands-on experience with dbt in a production environment
- Side projects, open-source contributions, or hacks that show you love building outside of “just the job”
Responsibilities
- Take ideas from zero → production with speed, autonomy, and precision
- Ship features that directly impact how thousands of data teams work every day
- Move fast, break down walls, and cut through bloat to deliver real value
- Collaborate with product and design, and are always are pushing things forward
- building a VSCode (cursor, etc.) extension that empowers thousands of developers with our new engine.
Other
- We’re not looking for a “code maintainer.” We’re looking for someone who cuts through complexity, ships fast, and builds things customers truly love.
- If you’re the type of engineer who can see the big picture, sweat the details, and still move like a startup founder, you’ll fit right in.
- A track record of building and shipping fullstack products that made a dent in customer outcomes
- Startup-level bias toward action —you’d rather ship and learn than debate and stall
- Comfort working async with a fully-remote, distributed team
- Experience thriving in PLG-style growth environments
- Unlimited vacation (and yes we use it!)
