What you will do

Architecture Design and Scoping: Design and scope end-to-end architectures with a thoughtful approach to trade-offs. Define success metrics and craft pragmatic, flexible implementation roadmaps.
Technical Leadership with Customers: Lead technical discussions with customer data and engineering teams. Apply unorthodox thinking when standard approaches fall short, and help teams rethink assumptions around warehouse design, schema decisions, and optimization strategies.
Customer Success Ownership: Exercise agency by owning the customer journey from proof of concept to production. Anticipate risks, drive alignment, and allocate internal resources to keep momentum.
Troubleshooting and Blocker Resolution: Diagnose technical blockers with precision and thoughtfulness. Navigate ambiguity with flexibility, and escalate nuanced architectural questions to MotherDuck engineering when needed.
Data Integration and Modeling Guidance: Advise customers on ETL and ELT patterns, modeling choices, and integration practices. Use creativity and unorthodox perspectives to simplify complex data flows.
Cross-functional Partnership: Collaborate with Sales, Customer Engineering, and Support to deliver cohesive, high-quality customer experiences. Demonstrate flexibility as customer needs evolve across the engagement lifecycle.
Program Development: Create reusable artifacts, best practices, and reference architectures that reflect MotherDuck’s values of simplicity, clarity, and unorthodox efficiency.
Customer Communication: Communicate complex technical concepts with clarity, empathy, and thoughtfulness for both technical and non-technical audiences.

What people should be saying if you’re doing ducking awesome

“They didn’t just help us get to production. They helped us rethink how simple our data architecture could be. Every interaction felt intentional, adaptable, and refreshingly unorthodox.”
“I’ve never had a partner move this quickly while still being this thoughtful. They made complex decisions feel easy and guided us without ever taking the wheel away.”
“We came in expecting a standard POC. We left with an architecture that was cleaner, faster, and far more flexible than anything we’ve built before.”
“They spotted risks before we did, kept the project moving without being asked, and still had the humility to bring us along every step of the way.”
“When we hit a blocker, they didn’t just troubleshoot. They reframed the whole problem in a way that made the solution obvious. That level of clarity is rare.”
“If this is what working with MotherDuck is like, we’re never going back to our old approach. The experience felt tailored, thoughtful, and unusually effective.”

What we provide

Feather-ruffling compensation – competitive salary and stock options so you have a stake in our flock’s success.
