## About the role

The challenge isn't just moving rows; it’s ensuring "Reasoning Consistency." You are responsible for making sure our AI produces the same high-quality insights regardless of where the data resides. The Dual-Track Challenge: We are building a system that can either pipe data into our ClickHouse stack using Dagster and Airbyte , or execute "Zero-Extract" transformations natively in the customer's warehouse. You’ll need to master both worlds.

## What they're looking for

- The Pragmatic Polyglot: You are equally comfortable optimizing a Clickhouse query as you are writing native Snowpark (Snowflake) or BigQuery SQL and comfortable implementing data orchestration scripts using python
- The Data Ontologist: You understand that an AI needs more than just a table, it needs context . You have the discipline to define the "meaning" behind the data
- The "Translator": You can earn technical trust with a customer's Data Architect in minutes, extracting the logic of custom tables and mapping them to Hilbert reasoning engine
- The "Pilot" Mindset: You are excited to use and improve AI agents that handle the heavy lifting of data discovery and pipeline scaffolding
