Sourcetable is a networked spreadsheet that makes it easy to sync data, build models and collaborate without code. We handle the data warehouse, data pipelines (SaaS tools + DBs), and syncing so everything stays up to date.

We are thinking ahead to our next hire and looking for a hybrid designer/developer; person no.5 on our team. Likely start date would be in February.

You would be Sourcetable's first designer and responsible making data accessible to everyone. There are plenty of design challenges including an easy-to-use Joins GUI (it's the "easy" part that's hard), data documentation, collaboration, visualizations, business templates, general branding, and more!

When not engaged in creating designs, you will be required to implement them. This requires strong React.js skills, and modest backend experience including SQL, database and API work.

Note: to succeed in this role it is imperative that you are a hybrid designer/developer. We are a small team, and everybody has to wear many hats. Design discussions often extend to the database-schema level, so designers with programming experience will have an advantage here.

If you're interested in learning more, we'd love to meet you! Email eoin@sourcetable.com (co-founder / hiring manager).

p.s. Bonus points if you have been part of an early-stage or founding team. Please mention it in your email!
