Galaxy (getgalaxy.io) - The Cursor for SQL | NYC, NY | Full time -- Founding Frontend Engineer -- Founding Backend Engineer -- Founding Machine Learning Engineer We are building the unified data platform, starting with a reimagined SQL editor from the ground up - and moving into sharing, collaboration, access controls, and more. We just launched the alpha product TODAY to a list of over ~2,000 people on our waitlist Myself and a handful of super deep data / SW engineers started Galaxy as a passion project to solve 3 key problems: 1. *Queries everywhere* – SQL lives in Slack snippets, BI folders, dusty Git repos, and copy-pasted Notion pages. 2. *Never-ending data requests* – because no one can find (or trust) the right query, engineers and analytics teams still get pinged for “one more pull.” 3. ChatGPT doesn’t have full DB context - non technical users are writing incorrect SQL that lacks context AND technical users are rewriting the same queries over and over again LOOKING FOR: We're looking for high agency, high velocity individuals and someone who wants to be part of a family. We are building ~the unified data platform~ and want someone who is excited to be part of the story. APPLY: To apply friend me on LinkedIn or shoot me an email with your profile at hello@getgalaxy.io
