[KITlist-Tech] Software Engineer, Data (Seattle, WA)

Please direct your responses to: http://careers.tableausoftware.com

Tableau Software is one of the fastest growing technology companies in the world, with nearly 100% annual sales growth. Tableau makes fast analytics and visualization products that help people see and understand data of any size or format. The company is on its way to becoming a large, market-defining company in the business intelligence industry and is next in a long line of high profile Stanford spinouts (e.g., Google, Yahoo, VMWare). Customers of all sizes use our products, from Fortune 500 companies, to video game designers, to scientists in the jungles of Central America, to high school principals. Our software is for anyone with data and questions! Additionally, Tableau's web products (www.tableaupublic.com) are used by bloggers, journalists, and major media web sites to share data online as interactive visualizations. Check out our products at: www.tableausoftware.com/products/tour.

Tableau's culture is casual yet high energy. We are passionate about our product and loyal to each other and our company. We value work/life balance, efficiency, simplicity, freakishly friendly customer service, and making a difference in the world. Tableau offers exceptional professional and financial growth potential.

What you'll be doing…
You'll be expanding and enhancing the data handling capabilities of Tableau's analytical product suite. You're a "data geek" that has a deep passion for data and building robust, scalable and high-performance systems for working with large, diverse sets of data and allowing people to answer complex questions about that data. You will be working on a system that speaks natively to dozens of database platforms, enabling individual users and enterprises to rapidly explore their data and author insightful visualizations. You'll extend this system to handle an ever more diverse set of data sources, including API-based web data sources and NoSQL systems such as Hadoop. You'll constantly leverage your creativity and your technical prowess to satisfy customers and extend their ability to see, understand, and "reach out and touch" their data in whatever form it happens to be in.

Who you are…
You love data and you're not afraid to say it! You're a guru in all things data: relational databases, data warehousing, OLEDB and/or ODBC, etc. You are a rock-star developer with at least three years of experience who loves code and has a passion for solving complex problems, be they at work or in your spare time on your own projects. You believe in automation and writing tests for your own code as a way of maintaining high quality in your products. You understand what it takes to write software that is used by thousands or millions of people. You love writing things that "just work" – things that are robust, scalable, and that perform well. You enjoy collaborating, learning from or teaching others so we can all become better developers. Finally, you have solid development skills with SQL and C++ on the Windows platform – it is a bonus if you also are familiar with MDX.
