## Description

About Doss 

### DOSS is building an Operations Cloud for the real world.

A modern, AI-native platform for physical product businesses to manage the flow of goods, dollars, and data in real time, across:

- Procurement

- Inventory

- Orders

- Fulfillment

- Finance

**Built to replace spreadsheet chaos and rigid, consultant-heavy ERPs.** Fast time-to-value, adaptable as the business evolves.
Through our Adaptive Resource Platform (ARP) and unified operational data model, teams deploy quickly, automate workflows, and make changes without months of re-implementation.
**We recently raised a $55M Series B**, co-led by Madrona and Premji Invest. Participation from Intuit Ventures, Theory Ventures, General Catalyst, Contrary Capital, and Pathlight VC.
DOSS is trusted by fast-growing operators to run critical operations with speed, control, and confidence.

**About the Role**

### **What You'll Do**

- **Design the core EAV data model & schema‑as‑code platform** that powers every customer’s instance, balancing extreme flexibility with transactional integrity.

- **Build a Git‑style version‑control + migration engine** capable of rolling forward/back complex schema and data changes on live production tenants in enterprise settings.

- **Engineer AI‑assisted tooling** that uses foundation models to propose, validate, and apply new customer schemas and workflow definitions.

- **Scale our white‑labeled data warehouse** (BigQuery/Snowflake‐like) for high‑volume, low‑latency analytics and automation workloads.

- **Create Terraform‑like declarative APIs & SDKs** so ops teams can treat business processes as code while you ensure security, tenancy, and performance.

- **Deliver end‑to‑end observability & search** across supply‑chain, finance, and ops data—surfacing business logic in plain language through AI‐native search.

- **Build Enterprise guard rails** into a composable system to proactively detect anomalous behavior or risky emergent patterns

- **Mentor and shape engineering culture,** partnering with product and design to turn unsexy back‑office pain into elegant, resilient systems loved by operators.

### **What We're Looking ForExperience**

- Expertise building large scale ETL on databases like Postgres, Elasticsearch, DuckDB, Memgraph (Graph DB), etc

- Using cloud services to build + deploy reliable web applications

- Communicating clearly, asking thoughtful questions, and collaborating effectively with both technical and non-technical teammates.

- Making sound technical decisions, understanding tradeoffs, and contributing meaningfully to complex discussions.

- Breaking down ambiguous problems, investigating root causes, designing practical solutions, and driving them through execution.

**Qualities**

- Team player: you bring positivity, openness, and curiosity to the team every day.

- Growth mindset: everything is an opportunity to learn and improve yourself, the team, and the company.

- Craftsmanship: you care about making something of quality.

- Pragmatic: you make the right decision based on circumstance, not theory.

- Low Ego: you work best in collaborative environments where everyone supports the team.
