### About Glean

Glean is the Work AI platform that helps everyone work smarter with AI. What began
as the industry’s most advanced enterprise search has evolved into a full-scale 
Work AI ecosystem, powering intelligent Search, an AI Assistant, and scalable AI
agents on one secure, open platform. With over 100 enterprise SaaS connectors, flexible
LLM choice, and robust APIs, Glean gives organizations the infrastructure to govern,
scale, and customize AI across their entire business – without vendor lock-in or
costly implementation cycles.

At its core, Glean is redefining how enterprises find, use, and act on knowledge.
Its Enterprise Graph and Personal Knowledge Graph map the relationships between 
people, content, and activity, delivering deeply personalized, context-aware responses
for every employee. This foundation powers Glean’s agentic capabilities – AI agents
that automate real work across teams by accessing the industry’s broadest range 
of data: enterprise and world, structured and unstructured, historical and real-
time. The result: measurable business impact through faster onboarding, hours of
productivity gained each week, and smarter, safer decisions at every level.

Recognized by Fast Company as one of the World’s Most Innovative Companies (Top 
10, 2025), by CNBC’s Disruptor 50, Bloomberg’s AI Startups to Watch (2026), Forbes
AI 50, and Gartner’s Tech Innovators in Agentic AI, Glean continues to accelerate
its global impact. With customers across 50+ industries and 1,000+ employees in 
more than 25 countries, we’re helping the world’s largest organizations make every
employee AI-fluent, and turning the superintelligent enterprise from concept into
reality.

If you’re excited to shape how the world works, you’ll help build systems used daily
across Microsoft Teams, Zoom, ServiceNow, Zendesk, GitHub, and many more – deeply
embedded where people get things done. You’ll ship agentic capabilities on an open,
extensible stack, with the craft and care required for enterprise trust, as we bring
Work AI to every employee, in every company.

### About the Role

We are looking for an individual-contributor Data Engineer to help build and operate
Glean’s internal data platform. This is an internal-facing data platform role focused
on analytics engineering for Glean’s internal teams and not customer-facing implementation.
The role will focus on reliable, governed, cost-efficient data infrastructure and
analytics foundations used by internal teams across the company. You will work across
data ingestion, transformation, modeling, quality, access governance, and platform
reliability. This role is hands-on and well suited to an engineer who enjoys turning
ambiguous data problems into durable systems and clear operating standards. This
is an in-person role based in Bangalore, India, with regular office presence expected.

### You will

 * Build and maintain reliable batch and API-based data ingestion pipelines.
 * Improve data quality through testing, continuous integration (CI) checks, ownership
   metadata, and clear layer boundaries.
 * Operate and improve BigQuery data infrastructure with an emphasis on performance
   and cost efficiency.
 * Implement data access controls, governance workflows, and safe self-serve access
   patterns.
 * Improve pipeline observability, failure classification, incident triage, and 
   recovery processes.
 * Partner with Data Science, Business Intelligence, Finance, Sales Operations, 
   Marketing, Security, Reliability Engineering, and other internal teams to understand
   data needs and deliver reusable platform capabilities.
 * Participate in design reviews, code reviews, documentation, and operational support
   for the data platform.

### About you

 * Minimum experience: 7–10 years overall, including at least 7 years of data engineering
   experience.
 * Strong Data engineering fundamentals and experience building production data 
   systems.
 * An exceptionally high AI proficiency through habitual, high-value use of LLMs;
   sound judgment about when and how to apply them; rigorous validation and workflow
   improvement
 * Experience with SQL and Python, or comparable programming languages.
 * Experience with a cloud data warehouse, preferably BigQuery or a similar platform.
 * Experience with data transformation frameworks such as DBT, including testing
   and deployment workflows.
 * In Depth Understanding of Columnar File systems like parquet, Hudi Or Iceberg.
 * Understanding of dimensional modeling, data contracts, lineage, and data quality
   practices.
 * Experience designing or operating APIs, batch pipelines, or event-driven ingestion
   systems.
 * Ability to communicate technical trade-offs clearly and work effectively with
   internal stakeholders.
 * Ownership mindset: you can take a problem from discovery through implementation,
   rollout, and operational follow-through.
 * Ability to maintain a productive collaboration between IST and US PST time zones
 * Experience with BigQuery governance, IAM/RBAC, policy tags, masking, streaming
   systems or cost controls.
 * Experience building reusable data platform frameworks rather than one-off pipelines.
 * Familiarity with semantic layers, metric stores, or systems that make trusted
   data consumable by AI and analytics tools.
 * Experience with data observability, orchestration, CI/CD, or infrastructure-as-
   code.
 * Experience working in a fast-growing company where requirements and priorities
   evolve quickly.
