About this role

<p>In the beginning, in 2016, we were just two best friends working on a simple idea: how to make it super easy to turn your favorite smartphone photos into awesome wall art.</p>

<p>Today, we have multiple product lines with millions of customers, including Mixtiles, Mixtiles Art, Easyplant, and Oasis. And we're shipping new products every year.</p>

<p>We love what we do, and we love people who love what they do. If you're that kind of person, read on.</p>

<h2><strong>About Mixtiles</strong></h2>

<p>Mixtiles is a $300M profitable brand reinventing how homes feel. Wall photos. Self-watering plants. Smart lighting. Loved by millions. Growing fast. Built lean.</p>

<h2><strong>Why this role matters</strong></h2>

<p>At Mixtiles, data isn't just for dashboards - it's the nervous system of our future products. As we expand into smart lighting (Oasis) and living tech (Easyplant), we need to process massive streams of IoT signals and power real-time AI. You won't just maintain a warehouse; you will architect the platform that connects our physical products to the digital world.</p>

<h2><strong>What you’ll do</strong></h2>

<ul>

<li><strong>Build the "Brain"</strong>: Architect the next-gen data platform capable of handling high-volume IoT streams and integrating AI capabilities into our daily operations.</li>

<li><strong>Code the Core:</strong> This is a hands-on role. You won’t just manage; you’ll be deep in Python, DBT, and Airflow, building and optimizing the pipelines yourself.</li>

<li><strong>Scale for Complexity: </strong>We are growing from one product to a multi-brand ecosystem. You will ensure our data infrastructure evolves to support diverse business lines without becoming a bottleneck.</li>

<li><strong>Democratize Insights:</strong> Build a system so robust and intuitive that every engineer, product manager, and marketer can self-serve the data they need to build better products.</li>

</ul>

<h2><strong>Who you are</strong></h2>

<ul>

<li><strong>An Architect Who Codes:</strong> You lead by example. You prefer writing a script to writing a Jira ticket.</li>

<li><strong>Modern Stack Native: </strong>You live in the cloud and speak fluent Python. You know DBT and Airflow inside out.</li>

<li><strong>IoT Ready:</strong> You are excited by the challenge of moving beyond standard transactional data into the messy, high-volume world of hardware and sensors.</li>

<li><strong>Impact-Obsessed:</strong> You don't build technology for its own sake. You build it to solve real business problems and create products people love.</li>

</ul>
