О компании и продукте

• Are you the kind of developer who gets a rush from cracking a gnarly replication bug, an issue with CDC implementation, or a query that hangs with no obvious reason? Do you thrive at the intersection of writing code and helping customers succeed? As a Customer Support Developer (Databases) at Airbyte, you'll combine hands-on development skills with deep technical empathy to support our growing cloud, embedded, and open-source integration platform.
• This isn't a traditional support role. You'll be writing Java and Kotlin, shipping contributions to our open-source database source and destination connectors, digging into query plans and transaction logs, and directly shaping how customers move mission-critical data between databases, warehouses, and lakes. You'll champion the customer voice alongside our engineering and product teams every day, getting your hands dirty in the code.
• Our mission is unchanged: make data available and actionable to everyone, everywhere. That everyone now includes AI agents

• Triage and prioritize incoming issues with urgency, consistently meeting SLA targets while leveraging AI tools to work smarter and resolve issues faster
• Dig into complex issues across relational databases, data warehouses, data lakes, and cloud object storage, not just finding workarounds but partnering with Engineering to root-cause and drive real fixes
• Reproduce customer-reported bugs by inspecting connector logs, query plans, replication slots, transaction logs, sync state, and destination table state, and document findings with enough technical detail for Engineering to act on immediately
• Support customers through onboarding and troubleshooting for SSH tunnels, network configuration, database user permissions, CDC setup (WAL/binlog/redo logs), and warehouse/lake authentication
• Database Connector Development
• Get hands-on with customers building and debugging integrations, helping them navigate Airbyte's database sources and destinations with confidence, from authentication and SSL/SSH setup to CDC, schema evolution, incremental cursors, and typed destination tables
• Validate database version compatibility across supported engines and releases, maintain testing environments, and reproduce customer-reported behavior on real database and warehouse instances
• Support customers writing to data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift), data lakes and object storage (S3, GCS, Azure Blob, Databricks, Iceberg), and databases (Postgres, MySQL, MSSQL, ClickHouse), including schema evolution and typed-columns behavior
