About ClickHouse

Recognized on the 2025 Forbes Cloud 100 list, ClickHouse is one of the most innovative and fast-growing private cloud companies. With over 2,000 customers and ARR that has more than quadrupled over the past year, ClickHouse leads the market in real-time analytics, data warehousing, observability, and AI workloads. ClickHouse’s incredible momentum was confirmed in its recent $350M Series C financing that included new, tier one investors, Khosla Ventures, BOND, IVP, Battery Ventures and Bessemer Venture Partners. We’re on a mission to transform how companies use data. Come be a part of our journey!

The ClickHouse Cloud Platform continues to evolve rapidly, powering mission-critical data workloads for customers at massive scale. We’re now expanding the boundaries of what’s possible for database UX — simplifying how users interact with, manage, and integrate their data systems. This is a strategic initiative within ClickHouse, focused on delivering intuitive, developer-first experiences for cloud-based data management.

We’re seeking a Senior UX Engineer to help define and deliver the future of our database user experience. You’ll collaborate with product, design, and backend teams to build responsive, performant, and elegant interfaces that make complex database operations feel seamless. This role offers an exceptional opportunity to shape a highly visible product area from the ground up — working at the intersection of engineering, design, and developer experience.

What You’ll Do
  • Collaborate with product and design teams to translate ideas and user requirements into intuitive, high-quality interfaces.
  • Champion developer-focused UX that simplifies database management, observability, and performance workflows.
  • Implement new functionality end-to-end — from frontend React and TypeScript development to collaborating on backend API design and integration.
  • Partner with infrastructure teams to surface metrics, diagnostics, and performance insights through polished, data-rich UIs.
  • Uphold and advance frontend engineering best practices — ensuring code quality, performance, accessibility, and maintainability.
  • Mentor and support 1–2 engineers contributing to the broader UX initiative.
  • Influence technical and product discussions across teams, driving forward a consistent, modern experience across ClickHouse Cloud.
About You
  • Experience: 6+ years in frontend or full-stack development, ideally within data, infrastructure, or developer tooling environments.
  • Expertise: Strong proficiency in React, TypeScript, and modern frontend architectures. Experience with backend APIs (Node.js, Golang, etc.) is a plus.
  • Collaboration: Skilled at working closely with designers and backend engineers to deliver cohesive, elegant experiences.
  • Developer Empathy: Deep understanding of developer workflows and the ability to create UIs that feel fast, clear, and purposeful.
  • API Sense: You have an intuitive grasp of what makes APIs usable and well-designed, and can help shape them from a UX perspective.
  • Ownership: Thrive in a high-autonomy environment, taking initiative and driving work from conception to delivery.
  • Mentorship: Enjoy guiding and supporting other engineers, elevating quality and UX standards across the team.
Why Join Us
  • Contribute to a strategic, high-visibility project shaping the future of database UX within ClickHouse Cloud.
  • Work with world-class teams at the intersection of design, data, and distributed systems.
  • Enjoy high ownership and autonomy in a fast-moving, collaborative environment.
  • Solve meaningful challenges in performance, scalability, and user experience at petabyte scale.
