We’re not just building better tech. We’re rewriting how data moves and what the world can do with it. With Confluent, data doesn’t sit still. Our platform puts information in motion, streaming in near real-time so companies can react faster, build smarter, and deliver experiences as dynamic as the world around them.

It takes a certain kind of person to join this team. Those who ask hard questions, give honest feedback, and show up for each other. No egos, no solo acts. Just smart, curious humans pushing toward something bigger, together.

One Confluent. One Team. One Data Streaming Platform.

About the Role:

At Confluent, one of our core values is to ‘Earn Our Customers’ Love’. As a Customer Solutions Consultant, you will be a key partner to our customers, helping them maximise the value of the platform by enabling them on the Confluent solutions they use while caring for the technical health, maturity, and scalability of their deployments.

In this role, you’ll work with a portfolio of customers, working closely with internal and customer stakeholders to understand their goals and challenges.
