We're looking for an SQL Engineer to join us on our mission:

By talking to our customers on a daily basis and dealing with customer problems; you’ll get a good understanding of our product, our customers and their needs. You will work with our customers to identify and resolve technical issues related to data, SQL and queries.

You’ll work together with our first line support engineers to ensure accurate, timely and seamless support that our customers ask for and deserve: you’ll provide insights of our data model to colleagues and clients, advising them on ‘the how’ while keeping performance and data consistency in mind.

If complex business cases come up, you’ll take ownership of the problems and look for a solution, always keeping the experience of our customers in mind.

On a daily basis, you’ll …

  • Help clients fill a data warehouse through available tools

  • restore backups and help with disaster data recovery

  • Inspect the behavior of the tool within the log files and provide meaningful feedback to our development teams on how to optimise APIs or business processes

You will talk with tons of entrepreneurs, project managers, CFOs, and operational managers every day. You’ll see them grow and help them become more successful. In turn, you’ll gain new product insights and technical knowledge daily, which makes you the expert for our customers and your colleagues. Read more about our happy clients :).

The first months: 

During the first few months, you will be trained on Teamleader Orbit tools and the data model. You will learn our tooling and about our clients by running alongside the first line support engineers, making you a product expert.

By joining the Teamleader Orbit team, you strive to be a product expert and derive your energy from helping our customers work smarter. You’ll represent the voice of the customer.

Why others choose Teamleader: we're lively, not corporate

We have the energy and boldness of a start-up and the expertise and pragmatism of a scale-up. The result: a team of both young and seasoned professionals led by supportive and approachable managers who give recognition and rewards for hard work. You’ll be working in a fast-paced tech environment with open feedback culture and room for initiatives as well as ideas. You’ll have plenty of room to apply your personality, express yourself, and impact our course of action with your insights or ideas.

We value diversity

Our ambition is to build and sell a product that helps everyone everywhere (starting with Europe) to work smarter, so we want our team to reflect that.
