About Us

Dutch Vet is transforming veterinary care by making expert treatment accessible anytime, anywhere. Our mission is simple: help every pet live their happiest, healthiest life by connecting pet parents with licensed vets through seamless virtual visits.

We’re the only veterinary telemedicine service that can diagnose, prescribe, and ship medications directly to customers in most states. For less than $100 per year, Dutch offers real relief and convenience for pets and their families.

As one customer put it: “Dutch was the only site that would diagnose and prescribe meds as well as ship the meds.”

Here’s what other customers have said about Dutch Vet:

"The easiest vet visit you'll ever have.”

"More thorough than my in-person vet.”

"No nonsense, quick, easy and friendly veterinarian. Much cheaper than our regular local vet that couldn’t get us in. So glad I found Dutch!"

Backed by world-class investors including Forerunner Ventures, Eclipse Ventures, and Bling Capital, our team is made-up of successful startup founders (Hims, PlushCare, Nasty Gal) with expertise in scaling enterprises (TripAdvisor, Walmart, BARK). Featured in TechCrunch, Forbes, Wired, and Axios, Dutch is setting the standard for quality, accessibility, and compassion in pet care.

THE ROLE:

We're looking for a Lead Data/AI Engineer to own the pipelines, event tracking, and data models that power analytics, reporting, and AI features across Dutch. This role sits at the center of our modern data stack: Segment and Amplitude for behavioral data, Snowflake and dbt for warehousing and modeling, Prefect for orchestration, and Sigma for BI. You'll partner closely with the BI team, which governs all data model builds, and with product engineering to make sure every dashboard, metric, and product decision runs on data the company trusts.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

Data Engineering & Infrastructure (50%)

• Build, maintain, and optimize ELT pipelines using dbt, Prefect, Fivetran, and Airbyte

• Own core datasets and dbt models in Snowflake in partnership with the BI and product engineering teams

• Lead infrastructure modernization, including orchestration and dbt version upgrades, flow runtime reduction, and Snowflake compute and storage cost optimization

• Drive warehouse security and governance work, including access controls, remediation of security assessment findings, and PII handling

• Implement data quality tests, freshness checks, observability, and alerting across critical pipelines
