Smart lighting. Loved by millions. Growing fast. Built lean. ## Why this role matters At Mixtiles, data isn't just for dashboards - it's the nervous system of our future products. As we expand into smart lighting (Oasis) and living tech (Easyplant), we need to process massive streams of IoT signals and power real-time AI. You won't just maintain a warehouse; you will architect the platform that connects our physical products to the digital world. ## What you’ll do - Build the "Brain": Architect the next-gen data platform capable of handling high-volume IoT streams and integrating AI capabilities into our daily operations. - Code the Core: This is a hands-on role. You won’t just manage; you’ll be deep in Python, DBT, and Airflow, building and optimizing the pipelines yourself. - Scale for Complexity: We are growing from one product to a multi-brand ecosystem.

You prefer writing a script to writing a Jira ticket. - Modern Stack Native: You live in the cloud and speak fluent Python. You know DBT and Airflow inside out. - IoT Ready: You are excited by the challenge of moving beyond standard transactional data into the messy, high-volume world of hardware and sensors. - Impact-Obsessed: You don't build technology for its own sake. You build it to solve real business problems and create products people love. ## About Mixtiles ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Mixtiles makes it easy to turn smartphone photos into removable, damage-free wall art and has expanded into smart plants, lighting, and AR home design. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series B; $11M–$21M total funding per conflicting reports) - **Headquarters**: Wilmington, Delaware, United States (operational HQ in Tel Aviv, Israel) - **Founded**: 2016 - **Founders**: David and Eytan (two best friends) ## Core Business - Primary industry: Consumer home decor / consumer tech - Target customers: B2C – homeowners, renters, and design enthusiasts - Mission or purpose: “We help millions of people create homes they love.” ## Products & Services - **Mixtiles**: Photo tiles that stick to walls without damage, repositionable, offered in various sizes and frames.
