About the role

  • Instead of cobbling together nginx, NLBs, VPNs, model routers, and oodles of other tools, developers solve every networking problem with one gateway.
  • Doesn't matter if they're sharing localhost or running AI workloads in production.
  • We're trusted by more than 9 million developers at companies like GitHub, Okta, HashiCorp, and Twilio.

Responsibilities

  • You'll design and evolve the pipelines and orchestration systems that move data across ngrok - from product events to financial reporting.
  • You'll own core business and product datasets - usage, revenue, growth, performance-and ensure they're accurate, reconciled, and trusted.
  • You'll build and refine the models that power dashboards, planning, forecasting, and experimentation.
  • You'll implement validation, testing, observability, and monitoring across our data systems.
  • You'll improve performance, cost efficiency, and architectural design across our data stack (Airbyte, Dagster, dbt, Athena, Flink, Superset, and beyond).

Nice to have

  • Usage-based billing, metering, revenue, or financial reporting systems
  • Event-driven or streaming data architectures
  • Customer-facing dashboards or internal executive reporting

Skills

  • ngrok runs entirely on AWS.
  • Our core data warehouse is in Athena, with the data being stored as Apache Iceberg.
  • Our data codebase is a mix of Python and Scala 3.
  • All data tools are fully integrated with the rest of our developer platform.
  • The ngrok codebase is primarily Go and TypeScript.
  • Our Bay Area employees commute to the office on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
