With more than 4,000 customers and ARR that has grown over 250 percent year over year, ClickHouse leads the market in real-time analytics, data warehousing, observability, and AI workloads.

We're on a mission to transform how companies use data. Come be a part of our journey!

ClickHouse welcomed Langfuse, the leading open-source platform for tracing, evaluation, and observability, to strengthen its position in the AI infrastructure and LLM observability ecosystem. With ClickHouse and Langfuse scaling to power enterprise AI workloads, we're growing our support team to provide a world-class experience for our expanding customer base, with unified expertise across database infrastructure and AI observability.

We are seeking a Technical Customer Support Engineer to join our global Support Engineering team in a hybrid role spanning both ClickHouse and Langfuse ecosystems. In this position, you will support customers across EMEA and globally in the Americas and APJ when support is needed or coverage overlaps. You'll be handling technical issues and solutions, ranging from core ClickHouse database requests to helping thousands of AI product teams succeed with tracing & evals in Langfuse. You will own a wide array of responsibilities, including front-line troubleshooting, community support, pre- and post-sales technical activities, and partnering on deeply technical POCs, and suggesting improvements to how we do things in Support at ClickHouse.

• Distributed & Operational Rigor: Comfort working in a global, remote-first team aligned to SLA coverage, on-call needs, and async communication.

For Langfuse & AI Observability:

• LLM Tooling & Application Dev: Genuine curiosity for LLM application development with hands-on experience building, debugging, or evaluating LLM-powered products using frameworks like Python, TypeScript, LangChain, LlamaIndex, or Vercel AI SDK.
