Careers at Urbadan

We hire facilitators who enjoy slow, documented work. You will spend more time editing runbooks than tweaking neon hero gradients.

Pipeline monitor

Watch production sandboxes, annotate incidents, and translate alerts into human-readable sentences for learners.

Schema planning desk

Host tea-break reviews, keep contract diffs tidy, and make sure finance can follow the thread without opening a SQL console.

Orchestration notes

Draft failure drills, score migrations, and pair with coaches who specialize in Airflow, Dagster, Prefect, and Luigi estates.

Studio signal flow

Principles

Document the boring path first.
Prefer reversible migrations over hero stories.
Teach with receipts: diffs, runbooks, alert copy.
Leave air in the calendar for reflection.
