About the Job

Collate is the creator of the fast-growing open-source OpenMetadata project, and we’re passionate about transforming the way data teams work together. Our founders were the creators of Apache Hadoop, Apache Atlas, and Uber Databook, and previously founded and IPO'd Hortonworks.

We are on a mission to help every company realize the fullest potential of data through AI Agents, open-source, and unified metadata, by solving problems around data discovery, observability, and governance that current data catalogs and quality tools fail to address.

Today, we're focused on solving the foundational problem of discovering and understanding data. We believe metadata is the key to unlocking user collaboration, data quality, data observability, and many more applications that'll enrich the life of data users.
