About Turntable

Turntable is on a mission to build the future of analytics infrastructure.

We have raised $3.2M from world-class investors and are looking to expand our team.

Our Vision

We believe that the jobs of the next million data professionals will look different than those of the past. Data is more vital to organizations than ever before, yet many data tools remain complex and hard to use. By combining modern data warehousing technology, AI, and a delightful user experience, we aim to create a category-defining product that will transform how organizations use data.

The Role: Senior Backend Engineer

We are seeking a stellar Senior Backend Engineer to join our engineering team.

Customer-facing product development experience is a big plus.

Responsibilities

  • Develop AI models that can generate SQL, write documentation, and understand an organization’s data models in their warehouse.
  • Work on SQL compilers, network libraries, and abstract syntax tree parsers to generate a column-level data lineage view of an entire data warehouse.
  • Build large canvas, Figma-like frontend experiences.
  • Architect large-scale workflow systems.
  • Design real-time, multiplayer infrastructure.

Our Engineering Culture

At Turntable, we take inspiration from the best engineering teams in the industry and add our own unique touches. We prioritize speed and rapid iteration, believing that done is better than perfect. We are low ego and high empathy, and we all wear the customer hat, often interacting directly with customers. We celebrate wins, ships, and learnings, and we focus on providing interesting opportunities for engineers to grow and level up their careers.
