[Hiring] Senior Software Engineer @Census

Census is the first Data Activation platform built on your warehouse. Sync 360° customer data to 150+ business tools today with Reverse ETL. Empower marketing teams to build dynamic audiences with a no-code segment builder.

Census is how data teams at companies like Canva, Figma, Rippling, Carta, and Notion build better business operations.

Backed by a16z and Sequoia, we're a hybrid team headquartered in San Francisco that loves taking annoying problems most people avoid and building elegant solutions for them.
