About Metabase

Metabase

Metabase is the easiest way for people to get insights from their data, from tiny startups who get up and running quickly to major corporations with tens of thousands of users. That’s why people love us.
We bring data tools with the elegance and simplicity of consumer products to the crufty world of enterprise business intelligence. We provide an opinionated open source starting point for how companies should measure, analyze and share their data, which is used by tens of thousands of companies.

The opportunity

We’ve seen firsthand how powerful in-person community connection can be — from our flagship Meetabase in Argentina to customer-hosted events in Madrid, and casual bar meetups organized when team members travel through Europe. We’re hiring someone to scale and grow this — to find new cities, book venues, handle swag, logistics, food, shipping, all the details — so that our Success Engineers can just show up, talk to customers, and build relationships. You’ll be the person who turns a “we should do something in Berlin” idea into a real event that brings dozens of people together.

What you’ll own / responsibilities

  • Strategically identify target cities and regions for in-person gatherings (meetups, dinners, informal events) based on community density, product usage, and growth potential
  • Lead all logistics: venue selection & negotiation, catering, AV, signage, swag, guest list, travel alignment, shipping, etc.
  • Work with Metabase team members (engineering, success engineering, marketing) traveling internationally to piggyback casual meetups or visits
  • Build standardized playbooks, checklists, and templates to scale and replicate events globally
  • Manage budgets, vendor relationships, and procurement
  • Coordinate with Marketing, Sales, and Success Engineering teams to ensure alignment on branding, messaging, funnel/handoff of leads from events
  • Collect event feedback, metrics, and learnings; iterate to continuously improve quality, efficiency, and impact

What you bring / qualifications

  • Proven experience organizing events (virtual or in-person), field/community marketing, for tech companies
  • Excellent organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple projects across time zones
  • Strong vendor negotiation and contract familiarity
  • Comfortable with international logistics: shipping swag, foreign vendors, cross-border payments
  • Self-starter, autonomous, comfortable working in a remote, asynchronous environment
  • Some ability for international travel. You won’t necessarily need to attend all of the events, but you’ll need the ability to go to them if you need to be there
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Bonus if you have experience in SaaS, data analytics tools, or open-source communities
  • Bonus if you speak multiple languages (e.g. Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, etc.)

Why this role matters

  • This role is the behind-the-scenes engine for growing our global community in real life. Every event you run is a chance for us to deepen relationships, hear real feedback, win hearts, and generate new evangelists and leads. You’re building the bridge between our product + users in the physical world.

What it’s like to work at Metabase

  • Fully remote, global team. Work where and when you’re most productive
  • You’ll contribute to software that empowers organizations to get insights from their data without needing a full analytics team
  • We value transparency, community, and giving the user a voice — and this role is central to that
  • You’ll be working alongside talented cross-functional teammates with lots of autonomy and growth opportunities
  • This role will initially report to the VP of Success Engineering
If there’s anything more you’d like to tell us about you or your interests, use the “additional information” section on the application page. We are real humans looking at applications and we love to hear what you have to say!
We’re a global team (50% outside the US), fully distributed (from Thailand to California), who get things done asynchronously, with plenty of uninterrupted time, supporting each other to do the best work of our careers. We offer flexibility (define your own schedule and work from wherever you want), autonomy, and an environment that fosters growth, learning, and development. We’re relentlessly user-focused and believe in building long-term value, not short-term hacks. And we raised a $30M Series B to take our approach to the next level for years to come.
For U.S. applicants: Metabase participates in the federal E-Verify program, which confirms employment authorization of newly hired U.S. based employees. E-Verify is not used as a tool to pre-screen candidates and is only initiated upon hire.
