Jobs in Syracuse, United States

At Dagster Labs, our mission is simple but ambitious: to empower every organization to build a productive, scalable data platform. We’re the brains behind Dagster, the open-source tool developers love, Dagster+, our managed cloud, and Compass—our first AI product, which brings exploratory data analysis into Slack with governed context. From scrappy startups to global enterprises, thousands of teams trust us to power the data behind their analytics, machine learning, and AI breakthroughs.

We believe the AI era runs on reliable, high-quality data. That’s why we make data platforms easier to test, easier to understand, and actually enjoyable to use. Dagster is quickly becoming the backbone of how the world builds intelligent systems.

We’re a small, well-funded team with big energy and a track record of shipping software people rave about. We aim high and work as a team, holding ourselves to the highest standards and trusting each other to deliver. We care about how we work together: no egos, no drama, just a lot of curiosity and a drive to make something meaningful.

If you want to help shape the future of data and AI and have fun doing it, come build with us.

Are you a driven software engineer who thrives at the intersection of product development, customer success, and user adoption? Join the Dagster Labs engineering team, where you\'ll contribute to building and enhancing the Dagster platform—empowering organizations to create scalable and productive data platforms.

We’re hiring Product Engineers to accelerate Compass adoption and impact. You will shape the product by turning ambiguous needs into crisp, Slack-native workflows; ship user-facing features that deliver answers in minutes with governed, learning context; work across the stack from product UX to backend, data integrations, and infrastructure, and iterate closely with users and industry-leading partners to turn signal into outcomes.

This is a full-time position offering competitive salary, equity, and benefits. We are a distributed team, and this role is remote within the United States; we have optional in-person offices in San Francisco, New York, and Minneapolis. We’re open to hiring fully remote candidates who are currently authorized to work within the United States. We offer flexible remote work options so you can choose the environment that makes you most productive - whether that’s your home or a coworking space. Dagster Labs fosters a collaborative, remote-first culture, ensuring you have all the tools and support needed to thrive, no matter where you are.
