Senior Data Platform & AI Engineer (Startup Grinder)

Kloudgen Inc.

Austin, TX, United States

Full-time

Company Description

Kloudgen is redefining enterprise intelligence.

Our flagship product, Semantiqa, is a groundbreaking Snowflake Native App that automates semantic modeling, knowledge graph creation, and AI readiness—all with a strict zero-egress architecture that keeps enterprise data entirely secure within the customer’s cloud boundary.

We are on the verge of explosive growth and taking off. We aren't looking for a corporate clock-puncher; we are looking for a foundational team member who wants to build a legacy, run fast, and share in the massive upside of our growth trajectory.

Role Description

We are seeking a relentless, high-powered Senior Data Platform & AI Engineer to fill a critical seat on our senior development team.

You will directly own the evolution of our native data architecture and AI capabilities.

This is a startup environment.

It requires a "grinder" mentality—someone who thrives under pressure, pivots quickly, embraces ambiguity, and possesses extreme ownership.

If you want a comfortable 9-to-5, this isn't it. If you want to solve deeply complex technical problems, ship code that matters every single day, and run with a lean, elite team, you've found your home.

Qualifications

  • The Stack: Proven, deep hands-on experience building production-grade solutions using:
  • Snowflake (Bonus points for Native App Framework, Snowpark, and Streamlit)
  • Databricks (Delta Lake, Unity Catalog, and advanced cluster optimization)
  • Python (Advanced engineering, data manipulation libraries, and AI/ML integration)
  • AI Expertise: Practical experience implementing Snowflake Cortex AI (or similar LLM/RAG frameworks) for enterprise text, search, or metadata analysis.
  • Startup DNA: A background in early-stage startups or a proven track record of operating successfully in high-pressure, fast-growth environments.
  • The Mindset: A "get-it-done" attitude. You don't wait to be told what to do; you find the gaps, build the solutions, and maintain high standards under tight timelines.
  • Experience: 5+ years in heavy data engineering, analytics infrastructure, or AI platform development.
