At Tecton, we solve the complex data problems in production machine learning. Tectons feature platform makes it simple to activate data for smarter models and predictions, abstracting away the complex engineering to speed up innovation.

Tectons founders developed the first Feature Store when they created Ubers Michelangelo ML platform, and were now bringing those same capabilities to every organization in the world.

Tecton is funded by Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, and Kleiner Perkins, along with strategic investments from Snowflake and Databricks. We have a fast-growing team thats distributed around the world, with offices in San Francisco and New York City. Our team has years of experience building and operating business-critical machine learning systems at leading tech companies like Uber, Google, Meta, Airbnb, Lyft, and Twitter.

We are building Rift (talk, blog post) - a new fully managed compute environment that allows data scientists to construct powerful batch and streaming pipelines in Python. Our new environment leverages popular open-source technologies such as Ray, Arrow, and DuckDB. We also have deep integrations with Spark platforms (Databricks, EMR, Dataproc) and data warehouses (e.g. Snowflake, BigQuery, RedShift), along with performant training data pipelines and a workload orchestration platform.

As a senior engineer on the Batch Data team, youll play a critical role in architecting, designing, and scaling the core compute engines and storage architecture used by every Tecton customer. You'll contribute to the performance of our query optimizer, from parsing & optimization to plan selection. Think of this team as the beating heart of Tecton.
