About Bluesky:
Bluesky is a platform that helps organizations optimize costs and maximize returns on their Snowflake investment.

Our platform offers budgeting and forecasting tools, workload optimization, query analysis, anomaly detection, and monitoring and alerting features that provide customers with deep visibility. With Bluesky, customers can expect 500X query improvements and 30% cost reductions, which makes it a no-brainer for any enterprise.

  • Management - Effectively configure, monitor, and scale production environment involving Snowflake (similar DataWarehouse), dbt, Airbyte, and Prefect (any modern data frameworks / tools), ensuring seamless operation and optimal performance.
  • Stewardship - Own or support the data definitions and lineage across our entire data warehouse.
  • Mentoring - Help teach other team members about data architecture and also be a consultant for developers who need help with data.
