Leading AI data agent for enterprise-scale analytics.
Trusted by companies like Amazon, Ring, Scale AI, Lumeris, and the NBA.
Raised $12M. Team of ~20 people including many ex-founders.
TextQL is an NYC-based startup working to drive the unit cost of a data-driven decision down to zero. Customers like Amazon, Ring, Scale AI, Lumeris, and the NBA rely on us to make better decisions, faster. We’re rapidly expanding our engineering team to build the agentic data lakehouse – finding trustworthy answers to hard questions from messy enterprise data without configuring schemas, moving data, or lengthy implementation roadmaps.
About The Roles
We’re hiring software engineers across three areas. If one of these descriptions resonates, we strongly encourage you to apply.
Distributed Data Systems
Do you get genuinely emotional about JOIN order optimization? Have you ever implemented a query optimizer for fun?
Query behaviors will change when agents are behind the vast majority of queries. You will work on a greenfield OLAP lakehouse project to build the data platform for the agentic era.

- Experience at early-stage startups or building products from zero to one

Compensation & Logistics
- Compensation: $200K base salary, $100K equity, $50K-150K bonus based on performance and scope
- Interview: We prefer on-site interviews when feasible and can make a decision within 72 hours of your on-site. If you’re outside NYC, we’ll cover all travel expenses.
