About Us

Soda’s mission is to monitor the world’s decisions. We’re building the first Data and AI performance monitoring platform that spans data collection to automated decision-making. Soda helps customers detect, resolve, and prevent data quality issues by combining automated post-production monitoring with pre-production pipeline data testing. We enable Data Engineers to effectively own DQ by “shifting left” the data quality initiatives from business to engineering.

Soda was founded in 2019 by Maarten (employee #5 at Collibra, Go-To-Market leadership) and Tom (launched multiple OSS projects generating hundreds of millions in value). Together, they built a tool that ensures data quality across Data Engineering, Data Governance, and business use cases. Our open-source project, Soda Core, is already used by companies like Tesla, Slack, Adyen, Walmart, and JPMC. Soda commercializes its software through the Soda Cloud product. We're well-funded, with investors like Point 9 Capital, Hummingbird, Singular, and Eurazeo.

This is a unique opportunity to join a fast-growing startup at the cusp of becoming a leader in AI Observability.

Our Values

We value freedom with responsibility, transparency, and a growth mindset. We dislike politics and bullshit and value open and direct communication without judgment. We proactively identify and address potential issues before they become critical, and we communicate frequently to ensure transparency. We solve problems end-to-end, owning the wins and the mistakes. Working at Soda, you will have full autonomy to make impactful product and roadmap decisions and prioritize and organize your work how you see fit.

❤ Why you will love to join Soda

• Work on the product customers need and love: we're solving an important and urgent problem for users who are passionate about Data Quality.
• Early stage with PMF: We've already found our product market fit, but we are still a flat team with only essential processes. Best of the scale-up and startup worlds.
• High-Impact Team: Join a senior product team that values autonomy, responsibility, and shipping things that matter.
• Ownership from Day One: If you see a need, you address it. If you want to explore a new direction with customers or vibe code a prototype instead of defining requirements, you can.
• Work on your own terms: Fully remote, flexible work, with as many opportunities to meet up as you want!

😡 What you might not love

• Rapidly Changing Priorities: In a fast-moving expansion phase, our roadmap can pivot quickly. It's a fast-paced environment with a LOT of work to be done.
• Flexibility Required: You will have to learn new things all the time
