At ClickUp, we're building the future of work: the first truly converged AI workspace unifying tasks, docs, chat, calendar, and enterprise search, all supercharged by context-driven AI. We are an AI-native company. Every team member is expected to leverage AI daily, and we evaluate AI fluency as part of our hiring process. Join us and help redefine what's possible. 🚀 We're looking for a Staff Data Engineer to own the architecture and technical vision of our data platform. This is a high-leverage, high-autonomy role where you'll set the technical bar for the team, drive cross-functional alignment on data infrastructure strategy, and solve our hardest engineering problems. You'll operate across AWS serverless technologies, Snowflake, dbt, and Terraform, but your impact goes well beyond any single tool: you'll shape how we think about reliability, scalability, cost, and developer experience at the platform level. This role is for someone who doesn't just build great systems, but makes the engineers around them better. The Role: Own the technical architecture of ClickUp's data platform, making design decisions that balance scalability, cost, reliability, and velocity. Define and drive the technical roadmap for data infrastructure in partnership with leadership. Design systems at scale : build frameworks, abstractions, and patterns that other engineers use daily. Lead complex, cross-team technical initiatives spanning data engineering, analytics engineering, data science, and data analytics. Drive cost optimization across cloud infrastructure and compute, turning efficiency into a competitive advantage. Build and evolve our data pipelines using AWS serverless (Lambda, Fargate, Step Functions, Kinesis, S3, DynamoDB, Aurora), Snowflake, and dbt. Establish and champion engineering standards : observability, testing, CI/CD, code review, and documentation practices. Design and maintain infrastructure for AI/ML workloads , including LLM frameworks, feature pipelines, training
Role overview
Job description
At Render, we’re building the modern cloud platform for developers creating AI-native, full-stack, multi-service applications. Our mission is to eliminate the tradeoff between the power of hyperscalers and the simplicity of developer-friendly platforms—so teams can ship fast, scale reliably, and focus on their product, not infrastructure. Unlike complex hyperscalers or ephemeral edge/serverless solutions, Render offers a developer-first experience with persistent compute, dynamic autoscaling, built-in orchestration, and observability, allowing teams to launch, scale, and manage real-world applications without writing infrastructure code or managing servers. Whether you're building LLM-powered applications, scalable SaaS products, or async processing pipelines, Render empowers teams to move fast and scale confidently from MVP to millions of users. Our platform is trusted by over 7 million
