Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Engineering Jobs at Fivetran Jobs
Align your resume to connector or pipeline work
Fivetran's Engineering roles center on data connectors, ELT pipelines, and distributed systems. Frame your experience around throughput, reliability, and API integrations so your background maps directly to their core engineering problems before you apply.
Use Migrate Mate to filter open Engineering roles
Fivetran posts Engineering positions across multiple specializations at any given time. Use Migrate Mate to filter specifically for roles at Fivetran that match your visa type, so you're only applying where sponsorship is already confirmed.
Prepare your degree equivalency documentation early
H-1B specialty occupation petitions require USCIS to accept your degree as directly relevant to the role. If your computer science or engineering degree is from a non-U.S. institution, get a credential evaluation completed before your employer files Form I-129.
Target teams actively hiring for backend or infrastructure roles
Fivetran's sponsorship activity clusters around software engineering and infrastructure functions. Applying to teams building core platform features, rather than peripheral or short-term projects, puts you in front of hiring managers with established sponsorship processes.
Understand the H-1B cap and Fivetran's filing cycle
If you're not currently in H-1B status, your petition enters the annual USCIS lottery with an April 1 filing window and an October 1 start date. Lining up your Fivetran offer before February gives your employer enough time to prepare and submit correctly.

Find Engineering at Fivetran JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Fivetran sponsor H-1B visas for Engineers?
Yes, Fivetran sponsors H-1B visas for Engineering roles. The company has an active track record of filing H-1B petitions for software engineers and related technical positions. If you're currently on OPT or need a cap-subject H-1B, confirm your timeline with the recruiting team early in the process since USCIS lottery registration typically opens in March for an October 1 start date.
How do I apply for Engineering jobs at Fivetran?
Applications go through Fivetran's careers page, where Engineering roles are posted by team and specialization. To find roles already confirmed for visa sponsorship, browse Fivetran's Engineering listings on Migrate Mate, which filters specifically for positions open to candidates who need sponsorship. Tailor your application to the technical domain of the role, whether that's connector development, infrastructure, or backend systems.
Which visa types does Fivetran commonly use for Engineering roles?
Fivetran sponsors H-1B visas for engineers requiring long-term work authorization, along with F-1 OPT and F-1 CPT for students and recent graduates. For engineers pursuing permanent residence, Fivetran has supported EB-2 and EB-3 Green Card pathways, which involve PERM labor certification filed with the DOL before USCIS adjudicates the immigrant petition.
What qualifications does Fivetran look for in Engineering candidates who need sponsorship?
Fivetran's Engineering roles generally require a bachelor's degree or higher in computer science, software engineering, or a closely related field, which also satisfies the specialty occupation standard for H-1B eligibility. Practically, hiring managers prioritize experience with distributed systems, data pipelines, cloud infrastructure, or API development. Candidates with direct experience in ELT or data integration tools are particularly competitive for core product engineering teams.
How do I time my application at Fivetran around my visa situation?
Timing depends heavily on your current status. F-1 OPT holders should apply early enough that an offer is in place before their OPT expires, since cap-subject H-1B petitions cannot be filed until the March registration window. If you're transferring an existing H-1B, Fivetran can file a transfer petition at any time and you can begin work as soon as USCIS issues a receipt notice, without waiting for approval.
