Director, Connectors

Veeam Software
San Jose, CA
Job Description
Role Overview

You will own the Universal Connector Framework for Veeam Data Command Center and lead the team responsible for building and operating integrations across SaaS, IaaS, and AI platforms. In this role, you will help maintain visibility and control as data and AI usage expands across more tools and environments.

What You Will Do

Own the connector framework by setting the architecture and roadmap for a scalable, flexible platform that supports integrations such as Snowflake, Salesforce, Databricks, Microsoft 365, and vector databases like Pinecone and Milvus. Lead and grow the team by hiring, mentoring, and developing senior engineers, setting clear standards, and owning delivery, reliability, and scale.

Why It Might Be a Fit

10+ years in backend or data engineering focused on integrations, ETL, or API-first systems, plus 4+ years leading engineering teams. Proven experience architecting and shipping connectors or integration platforms for major SaaS and cloud ecosystems (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or complex enterprise apps) at scale.

Requirements

  • 10+ years in backend or data engineering focused on integrations, ETL, or API-first systems
  • 4+ years leading engineering teams
  • Proven experience architecting and shipping connectors or integration platforms for major SaaS and cloud ecosystems (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or complex enterprise apps) at scale
  • Strong skills in Go and/or Python, especially for high-concurrency and high-throughput work
  • Strong understanding of distributed systems, including microservices, REST/GraphQL APIs, and message brokers such as Kafka or RabbitMQ
  • Solid data fundamentals across SQL and NoSQL (graph databases such as Neo4j or Neptune are a plus)
  • Hands-on experience using AI-assisted development tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) and the judgement to help a team use them well; building reusable Claude skills or custom agents is a strong plus

  • Paid parental leave: 8 weeks for all parents, 16 weeks for birthing parents
