Description For Technical Lead - Data Foundation Team

Glean is revolutionizing enterprise knowledge work through AI-powered solutions. Founded by former Google search and Facebook engineers, we're building a comprehensive system of intelligence that combines the power of Google-like search with ChatGPT capabilities for enterprise use. Our platform serves as the crucial bridge between AI and knowledge, integrating company-wide information for deep understanding and superior search relevance.

As a Technical Lead in our Data Foundation Team, you'll be at the forefront of building and scaling our enterprise data ingestion and management infrastructure. This role is critical as we enter a hyper-growth phase, requiring someone who can build world-class software systems while maintaining our fast-paced, customer-driven culture.

You'll lead initiatives in building scalable distributed systems handling billions of documents, drive product innovation, and work directly with customers to ensure our solutions meet real-world needs. The role combines technical leadership with hands-on engineering, requiring both system architecture expertise and practical implementation skills.

Backed by top-tier VCs including Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins, and General Catalyst, we offer a collaborative environment where you'll work alongside experienced leaders from companies like Google, Slack, Facebook, and Dropbox. This is an opportunity to shape the future of enterprise knowledge work while working with cutting-edge AI technology.
