As an Airflow Reliability Engineer on the Customer Reliability Engineering (CRE) team at Astronomer, you will have the opportunity to become an Apache Airflow expert, learning directly from leaders of the Airflow project. You’ll provide Apache Airflow expertise directly to customers to help them make the best possible use of our managed Airflow service. CRE is Astronomer’s support team.

Every day is a new challenge and a new thing to learn.
