    Job DescriptionAbout MotherDuck

    Don't let the quirky name fool you We're on a mission to radically transform the data analyst user experience. We think we can empower and delight analysts using a novel cloud architecture built on top of DuckDB, an open source foundation with a vibrant community.

    Our team is a diverse mix of passionate, collaborative and empathetic data industry veterans from Google, Amazon, Meta, Snowflake, SingleStore, MongoDB, Confluent and Databricks.

    What is a MotherDuck'ing advocate?

    We're building MotherDuck using DuckDB not only because it's an amazing SQL engine, but also because of its passionate and engaged open source community. While the MotherDuck product is still in development (we're rapidly driving towards our first release), we have an opportunity to grow DuckDB awareness and adoption in the data engineering and analyst communities.

    You'll empower data engineers and data analysts

    We believe advocacy is about helping people solve their problems faster and with less pain, enabling them to sleep better knowing they love their work. You can help them by educating them on how they can make their workflows easier, connecting them with other data engineers in the ecosystem, working with them to get their bugs and feature requests the attention they deserve, and giving them a platform to share their lessons learned and best practices.

    • I really want to go to Coalesce this year. from MotherDuck is speaking and I always love their talks.
    • I'm super stoked that the MotherDuck folks tweeted about my project. Makes me feel loved.
