Job Description & How to Apply Below

From Fivetran’s founding until now, our mission has remained the same: to make access to data as simple and reliable as electricity. With Fivetran, customer data arrives in their warehouses, canonical and ready to query, with no engineering or maintenance required. We’re proud that more organizations continue to leverage our technology every day to become truly data-driven.

About the Role

Fivetran and dbt Labs are bringing together two industry-leading companies with a shared mission: helping organizations unlock the full value of their data. Together, we’re delivering the data infrastructure layer that helps organizations move, transform, and trust their data — from the moment data moves, through every transformation, to the context teams and AI systems rely on. Fivetran helps organizations automate data movement across the systems, clouds, engines, and tools they rely on.

dbt Labs pioneered analytics engineering, helping teams transform data into reliable, governed insights. Together, we support thousands of organizations as they build a trusted foundation for analytics, AI, and better business decisions. As we bring our teams and technology together, we’re building on the strengths of both companies while continuing to deliver the products and experiences our customers know and trust.

It’s an exciting time to join us: we’re creating a company with the scale, talent, and technology to help more organizations put their data to work with greater speed, confidence, and impact. During this transition period, you may see references to both Fivetran and dbt Labs throughout our recruiting process as we integrate our teams, systems, and career sites.

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer within our Engineering Strategy and Operations group. Our Research and Development (R&D) department is dedicated to accelerating innovation. This role expedites internal R&D business systems development and bridges Fivetran feature development processes with business operations and data insights. You will be instrumental in building the infrastructure and tools that provide our R&D and business leaders with a unified, real-time view of R&D operations efficiency and market alignment.

We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled Software Engineer to design, build, and maintain the critical systems and data pipelines that support our R&D organization. This role focuses on implementing technical solutions for key engineering and product processes, integrating core enterprise platforms, and transforming raw data into actionable business intelligence.

This is a full-time, hybrid position based out of our Toronto office. Our hybrid work model offers a blend of remote flexibility and in-person collaboration, including two days in the office each week to connect and build as a team.

  • Design, develop, and maintain bidirectional integrations between core platforms such as Jira, Zendesk, Salesforce, and other GTM and G&A Systems to streamline the feature development lifecycle and R&D operations.

  • Create ground-up and maintain custom AI agents and internal tools to help engineering managers, product Managers and leadership quickly access relevant data, draft compelling technical requirements and design, synthesize customer feedback, and align with strategic goals and OKRs to improve operational efficiency and launch innovative products faster.
