Own the hardest part of customer adoption. Ship real results, fast.
You’re not just handing out advice, you’re building real systems, fixing real problems, and translating reference architectures into blazing-fast production deployments.
As a Customer Delivery Engineer at TigerData, you’ll work directly with our most strategic customers during their make-or-break moments: migrations, performance tuning, schema design, and production rollout. You’ll write SQL, debug slow queries, optimize real workloads, and you’ll do it all while using AI copilots to go faster and work smarter. Your job is to help customers go live successfully, not to write long docs or open tickets for someone else to fix.
