Technical Solutions Engineer

Join Nextdata as a Solutions Engineer to develop and deploy innovative data products on Nextdata OS, collaborate with customers to transform their business needs into impactful solutions, and drive the adoption of data mesh principles.

The company

The future of data lies in decentralization, and the concept of a data mesh is the proven approach for implementing this at Enterprise scale. We’re here to make it a reality. Nextdata OS is a data-mesh-native platform built to meet the challenge of decentralizing data at scale. We are inventing a new way for developers to work with data and share it responsibly via data product containers.

Our vision is to build a world where AI/ML and analytics are powered by decentralized, responsible, and equitable data ownership, across boundaries of organizations, technology, and most importantly boundaries of trust.

Our purpose is to change the experience of creating, sharing, discovering, and using data forever, to be connected, fast, and fair based on data mesh principles.

Our technology is designed to empower data developers, users and owners with a delightful experience where data products are a first-class primitive, with trust built-in.

We are here to accept the reality that the world of data is complex and messy; data models are out-of-date the moment they are created; data is owned across trust boundaries; data is stored on different platforms; data is used in many different modes and most importantly data can't protect itself. We recognize that past approaches to tackle these complexities with centralized data collection, modeling and governance are ineffective at best and pathologically unfair at worst. Our mission is to reimagine the world of data with you.

The role

  • Create Data Products on Nextdata OS: Actively build solutions on top of Nextdata OS, translating customer business needs into Proof of Concept (PoC) data products.
  • Collaborate with Customers: Work with our initial customers to understand their business requirements and develop data products that address their needs.

  • Provide Feedback for Improvement: Offer insights to help us enhance Nextdata OS and our tooling based on your hands-on experience.
  • Manage PoC Lifecycle: Oversee the full lifecycle of PoC data products, from ideation around business use cases to successful deployment, including synthesizing realistic data for testing before production deployment.
  • Contribute to Team Growth: Play a key role as we build the Solutions Engineering team, shaping its direction and success.

You Are The Right Fit If You Have
