Metabase grounds every answer in your semantic layer — your metrics and business logic — so you can inspect the query behind it. Backed by Insight and NEA.
About the role
We built Metabase because existing tools for business intelligence didn’t feel like things we wanted to use. We wanted faster, simpler ways to ask questions about data, and wanted to strip away the colder feel of most Enterprise software. Folks seemed to agree, and now Metabase is used daily by tens of thousands of companies to give people in all sorts of roles access to insights they wouldn’t have otherwise had. None of this could happen without our user interface and that’s where you come in.
What they're looking for
- The problems we face are genuinely interesting and aren’t trivial. Data influences so much of our world but isn’t that easy to interact with or understand. You’ll make tools that people rely on for their real jobs
- You’ll get to work in open source and get feedback directly from users and customers out in the open
- The company is growing and so is the business. We’re adding new remote team members from around the world and improving our processes. It’s an exciting time and you can really have an impact on how things work here
- Knowledge and prior experience with data visualization (especially if it has involved dc.js and d3.js)
- Previous contributions to open source (not a requirement, but a huge plus)
- Either pre-existing knowledge or interest in learning some Clojure, the language much of the backend of our application is written in
