Klaviyo operates a real-time data analytics platform coded primarily in Python that is built for massive scale and hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Engineers come to Klaviyo with experience in a variety of languages and from a number of disciplines.

The Reporting Team is responsible for the visual display of quantitative information within the Klaviyo app, building tools for users to understand the performance of their marketing strategy and report on trends over time.

The team is full stack, building the data access and storage systems required to serve the front end experiences users need to understand their data. 

As an Engineering Manager for the Reporting Team, you can expect to be deeply involved in the technical discussions on how we access, aggregate, and display data in the Klaviyo application. You'll have ownership of the team's mission, goals, and roadmap while collaborating alongside technical product owners and product managers to build a product and technical strategy to deliver products that make it easy for users to understand their data and performance.
