TextQL builds AI agents and software that enterprises use to drive critical decisions on their data — and pushes the unit cost of those decisions toward zero. By putting everything a company knows behind every question, our platform closes a quarter's books 140× faster, answers two thousand operational questions a week, and helps care networks decide better for millions of patients. Blackstone, Amazon, Ring, Scale AI, and Lumeris rely on us to make better decisions, faster. We're rapidly expanding our engineering team to build the agentic data lakehouse – finding trustworthy answers to hard questions from messy enterprise data without configuring schemas, moving data, or lengthy implementation roadmaps.
Distributed Data Systems
Do you get genuinely emotional about JOIN order optimization? Have you ever implemented a query optimizer for fun?
Query behaviors will change when agents are behind the vast majority of queries. You will work on a greenfield OLAP lakehouse project to build the data platform for the agentic era.
What Success Looks Like
Within 90 days, you'll have shipped meaningful contributions to the distributed data systems layer
Within 6 months, you'll own major subsystems end-to-end
Within a year, you'll be a technical leader shaping the architecture of the agentic data lakehouse
About You
4+ years of experience as a data systems, backend, infrastructure, or platform engineer
Experience at early-stage startups or building products from zero to one
Comfortable diving into any part of the system—infrastructure, services, or frontend
You care about building systems that are robust, scalable, and easy to use
Compensation & Logistics
Total Compensation: $350K-450K ($200K base + $50K-150K bonus + $100K equity)
Interview: We prefer on-site interviews when feasible and can make a decision within 72 hours of your on-site. If you're outside NYC, we'll cover all travel expenses.
Onsite: We are 5 days a week in-office in FiDI, NYC
Benefits: 401(k) matching up to 5%, top-tier health insurance, 21 days PTO, free lunch
Visa Sponsorship: Yes—we retain immigration counsel to support the process.
If this description resonates, we strongly encourage you to apply.
The Application
We have a very simple, signal-driven process. Please send Gabriel an email with the following:
