Indian engineers to play crucial role
Fivetran, an automated data pipeline provider from California, is doubling of its India-based engineering team with a new office in Bengaluru, citing strong business growth
Within the past year alone, Fivetran has seen impressive growth on a number of fronts including increasing customer count by more than 75% to nearly 1,000, boosting revenue by more than 150% and a more than doubling of its global team, now standing near 300 employees.
Fivetran technology removes the final barrier to widespread adoption of data analytics programs — data centralization.
With Fivetran, enterprises no longer need to struggle building and maintaining data connectors to each individual data source, a resource-intensive process that slows access to critical data and takes teams away from business intelligence, process enhancement, machine-learning and other business-critical activities.
Fivetran’s pre-built connectors automate the entire process within minutes.
“Organizations need access to all of their data in one place, in real time without complex engineering,” George Fraser, CEO and co-founder of Fivetran said on 5 Mar 2020.
“We are constantly adding new connectors so our customers don’t need to consider how to keep up with the proliferation of cloud apps. We make it easy for them to maintain a granular view of their businesses from sales to marketing to finance to HR,” he said.
“Engineers in our Bengaluru office will play a crucial role in developing Fivetran’s core technology features and products. We are currently looking for top talent to bolster our existing longtime team,” said Vikram Labhe, Managing Director, Fivetran India.
Fivetran’s India Development Center was founded in 2017 and is currently home to more than half of the company’s worldwide engineering team.
In 2019, Fivetran received numerous industry accolades including: the Deloitte Fast 500, Gartner Insights Customer Choice, Y Combinator Top Companies and as a Great Place to Work.
Fivetran was recently named to the Enterprise Tech 30 for 2020. The company’s customer roster includes India brands such as Instamojo and Aasaanjonbs plus ClassPass, Conagra Brands, Jumeirah International, Kiva, Lime, Monzo Bank, Optimizely, Talkdesk, Urban Outfitters, and Square.
In September, Fivetran announced it has received $44 million in Series B funding. Fivetran is backed by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), Matrix Partners and CEAS Investments.
