Who are we?

At Embeddable, you can expect a very fast pace, ambitious goals and career-defining work. This is not your regular office job - we're looking for people who will live this product and give their best every day. This is just your default, without needing to be pushed.

We launched in December 2023 and are already taking the developer world by storm! Like how Stripe enables developers to add payments to their platform and Unity enables you to build world-class games, Embeddable is the end-to-end developer platform for building seamless, lightning-fast customer-facing analytics directly into your product.

As a developer, adding a couple of charts to your online platform is easy. Scaling analytics to tens of thousands of end-users, who all have differing data needs and data questions, is a hard problem. Embeddable gives you the infrastructure and tools to rapidly build out your interactive in-product analytics in days, not months, and empowers your team to iterate on your analytics at the pace your customers need.

Our 3 core user personas are:

  1. Front-end (React.js) developers using our SDK to build beautifully interactive analytical experiences.

  2. Data teams building (SQL-based) data models for powering their single-source-of-truth.

  3. End users (typically non-technical) who are interacting with the analytical experiences and building out their own custom dashboards in our customers’ platforms.

…and it’s our goal to make sure all of them have delightful user experiences!

At Embeddable we’re not just building a platform; we’re also building a community of superstars who are driven by curiosity, innovation, and the desire to explore, experiment, and create products and experiences that defy the ordinary.

Aaaaand we received a €6m seed funding round in December 2024 (Tech.eu announcement) and are so excited to embark on this new stage of growth where the possibilities are endless!

🧑‍💼 Who are you?

You’re a hungry, humble, and smart Senior Backend Engineer with deep expertise in Java (preferably Kotlin!) who thrives on building robust, scalable systems and writing clean, maintainable code, and is interested in joining our team in the not too distant future!

Joining our team means working alongside a small (but growing!) talented Backend Engineering team as part of a wider collaborative engineering team. You’ll have the opportunity to help shape the evolution of our backend architecture while contributing to a supportive environment that values innovation and quality.

Your work will directly impact our mission of delivering delightful analytics to our growing customer base!
