We're the team behind Dagster, an open-source data orchestration platform that helps data teams build, observe, and scale their pipelines with software engineering best practices. Founded in 2018 and originally called Elementl, we rebranded to Dagster Labs to reflect our singular focus on making data platforms more productive and sustainable.
Our approach is different: we treat data engineering as software engineering, giving teams the tools they need to define, test, and deploy data assets with confidence. We're a small, well-funded team spread across San Francisco, New York, Minneapolis, and remote locations throughout the US. We've built a collegial, collaborative culture where people are trusted to do their best work and where 'Be Human' isn't just a slogan - it's how we operate every day. Thousands of teams, from startups to enterprises, trust Dagster to power the data behind their analytics, machine learning, and AI initiatives.
