About Preset
Preset is the modern analytics platform built on
Apache Superset
, the world’s leading open-source BI tool. We help companies deliver fast, beautiful, governed analytics at scale — without locking them into proprietary data modeling layers or closed ecosystems.
We work at the intersection of
open source
,
cloud infrastructure
, and
product-led analytics
, building tools that serve everyone from data analysts to platform engineers.
The Role
Preset is looking for a
senior full stack engineer
to help lead the next generation of our product and platform. This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives in complex systems, cares deeply about user experience, and wants to shape the future of open analytics.
You will work across the stack — from frontend experiences in Superset to backend services, APIs, and cloud infrastructure — and play a key role in technical direction, mentorship, and execution of major product initiatives.
This is not a narrow feature-only role: you will be trusted to own ambiguous problems, drive architecture decisions, and help scale both the product and the engineering organization.
What You’ll Do
Build across the full stack
Design and ship end-to-end product features spanning frontend, backend, and infrastructure
Work deeply in the Superset ecosystem (React + Python + SQL + APIs)
Improve performance, scalability, and reliability of user-facing workflows
Own major technical initiatives
Lead large projects such as semantic layer integrations, caching/performance improvements, embedded analytics experiences, or permissions modernization
Drive technical planning, tradeoff discussions, and execution across teams
Raise engineering standards
Set best practices for code quality, testing, observability, and maintainability
Mentor senior and junior engineers and strengthen team execution
Collaborate cross-functionally
Partner with product, design, and customer-facing teams to deliver impactful outcomes
Work closely with open-source contributors and the Apache Superset community
Shape the future of analytics + AI
Build workflows that support AI-assisted analytics, LLM integrations, and next-generation BI experiences
Help define what “modern analytics” looks like in an open ecosystem
What We’re Looking For
Experience
6+ years of professional software engineering experience (or equivalent)
Strong full stack background: modern frontend + backend + systems thinking
Experience leading major initiatives in complex production environments
Technical Strength
Deep knowledge of:
React + TypeScript
(frontend architecture, performance, UX)
Python
backend development (APIs, services, async systems)
SQL and data-intensive applications
Comfort working in cloud-native environments (AWS, Kubernetes, Docker)
Product + Systems Mindset
You care about the user experience as much as the backend correctness
You think in systems: reliability, scalability, operability, long-term evolution
You thrive in ambiguity and enjoy turning messy problems into clear solutions
Leadership
Proven ability to mentor engineers and raise the bar across a team
Strong communication and collaboration skills
Ability to drive alignment without heavy process
Bonus Points
Experience with BI tools: Superset, Looker, Tableau, PowerBI, Mode, etc.
Familiarity with semantic layers: dbt, Cube, MetricFlow, etc.
Open source experience (especially Apache ecosystem)
Experience building embedded analytics or multi-tenant SaaS platforms
Interest in AI/LLM-enabled developer and analytics workflows
Why Preset
Work on one of the most widely adopted open-source analytics platforms in the world
Solve challenging problems at the intersection of data, product, and infrastructure
Help define the future of open, composable BI (not closed dashboards)
High autonomy, high trust engineering culture
Opportunity to lead at Staff/Principal scope with real ownership
