At Airtable, we're passionate about democratizing software creation — empowering anyone to build powerful, flexible tools without writing code. With our shift to an AI-native platform, customers can now generate full apps and deploy AI agents directly into their workflows. Data engineering plays a critical role in this evolution by delivering the insights our teams rely on to improve user experience, measure agent impact, and understand how the business is performing at scale.
As a Software Engineer, Data at Airtable, you'll make an enormous contribution to our data engineering efforts. You'll design and own mission-critical data pipelines to enable decision-making, partner with company leaders to create scalable data solutions, and launch innovative alerting and visualization solutions.
The Team
Our team is embedded in how Airtable understands itself as a business, working closely with Data Science and Analytics. What's unusual here: the platform you're instrumenting is the same one your customers use every day. When Airtable ships a new AI agent capability, you're among the first to wire it up, measure its adoption, and influence what gets built next.
Product & AI Data Infrastructure This team builds and owns the foundational data pipelines that power product analytics across Airtable. As Airtable shifts to an AI-native platform, our work increasingly involves instrumenting and measuring AI product usage, building event pipelines for AI agents, surfacing AI-native adoption metrics in core business tables, and developing AI-powered data discovery tooling, including vector search over our catalog metadata. We partner closely with product analytics, product engineering, and data infrastructure to turn business questions into well-modeled, trustworthy data.
