Come be a part of our journey!

The Connectors team is the bridge between ClickHouse and the broader data ecosystem. We build and maintain the integrations that make ClickHouse accessible to millions of developers, data practitioners, and AI agents worldwide from high-level data visualization plugins (Tableau, PowerBI, Superset, Metabase) to connectors for data frameworks (Apache Spark, Flink, Kafka Connect, Fivetran), orchestration platforms, and AI tooling. Our work directly shapes how companies process massive datasets: real-time analytics platforms ingesting millions of events per second, observability systems monitoring global infrastructure, and increasingly, the AI-powered data applications redefining how teams work with data. We collaborate closely with the open-source community, internal teams, and enterprise users to ensure ClickHouse integrations set the standard for performance, reliability, and developer experience.

About the role As a Senior Software Engineer specializing in Python and the Data Ecosystem, you'll be a core contributor owning and evolving critical parts of ClickHouse's data engineering ecosystem. This role sits at the intersection of high-performance database engineering and developer experience. You'll craft tools that enable Data Engineers and Data Scientists to harness ClickHouse's speed and scale in the frameworks they already use. We're looking for someone who has lived the Data Engineer or Data Scientist experience firsthand. The data practitioner's world is shifting rapidly: databases are no longer just query targets, but they're becoming active participants in AI-powered workflows, serving as vector stores for RAG pipelines, backends for LLM-powered agents, and real-time feature stores for ML inference. You understand these workflows not from the outside, but because you've operated within them. You don't just build integrations, you bring product-level insight into what we should build and why.

You'll own the full lifecycle of key Python integrations, driving architecture, performance, and feature direction across:

• Orchestration Platforms: Apache Airflow, Dagster, Prefect
• Transformation Tools: dbt, SQLMesh

Bonus points for:

• Experience deploying AI/ML models in production, including inference APIs and vector databases
• Prior experience as a Data Engineer or Data Scientist in a product-facing or platform role
• Familiarity with ClickHouse or similar high-performance OLAP platforms
• Familiarity with the JVM ecosystem

Eligible locations: USA, Canada, UK, Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Germany, Netherlands, Poland, Czech Republic, Israel, UAE
