Senior Software Engineer - Python and Data Ecosystem

The Connectors team is the bridge between ClickHouse and the broader data ecosystem. We build and maintain the integrations that make ClickHouse accessible to millions of developers, data practitioners, and AI agents worldwide from high-level data visualization plugins (Tableau, PowerBI, Superset, Metabase) to connectors for data frameworks (Apache Spark, Flink, Kafka Connect, Fivetran), orchestration platforms, and AI tooling.

Our work directly shapes how companies process massive datasets: real-time analytics platforms ingesting millions of events per second, observability systems monitoring global infrastructure, and increasingly, the AI-powered data applications redefining how teams work with data. We collaborate closely with the open-source community, internal teams, and enterprise users to ensure ClickHouse integrations set the standard for performance, reliability, and developer experience.
