Staff Software Engineer - Developer Productivity

Fivetran is hiring a Staff Software Engineer - Developer Productivity in Bengaluru.

From Fivetran’s founding until now, our mission has remained the same: to make access to data as simple and reliable as electricity. With Fivetran, customer data arrives in their warehouses, canonical and ready to query, with no engineering or maintenance required. We’re proud that more organizations continue to leverage our technology every day to become truly data-driven.

Responsibilities

• Lead end-to-end projects that improve developer tooling, environments, and operational workflows (speed, reliability, and safety)

• Design and operate internal tooling/services in Python and/or Go

• Build tooling for our internal developer platform (self-service workflows, shared patterns, developer-facing interfaces)

• Add automation and enable developer workflows across all three major cloud environments (AWS, Azure, and GCP)

• Develop AI-based workflows that improve developer experience and reduce repetitive manual work, including efficiency gains in infrastructure operations

• Improve developer feedback loops through better observability (metrics/logs/traces), making failures easier to diagnose

• Design/build and document “paved paths” and self-service capabilities so teams can ship without extensive platform expertise

• Improve reliability through automation and observability (metrics/logs/traces), and drive incident follow-ups to reduce recurrence

• Set technical direction (design docs, tradeoffs, sequencing) and drive delivery across stakeholders

• Mentor engineers through design and code reviews

Skills

• Strong experience building and operating production services in Python and/or Go

• Experience with at least one cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and core primitives (IAM, networking, compute)

• Experience building developer productivity tooling (CI systems, build tooling, developer portals, workflow automation)

• Track record leading ambiguous, cross-team technical projects to completion

• Strong communication and engineering judgment

You'll have an edge if you have:

• Kubernetes/platform abstractions experience

• Infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/OpenTofu), including reusable modules, safe state practices, and modernization of shared platform foundations

• Experience building internal developer platforms (IDPs) / developer portals / self-service tooling
