We are solving this challenge by enabling enterprises with tools and operations services that facilitate the onboarding and delivery of any dataset to end customers how, and where, they want it. In our lingo, we’re ushering in the third generation of ETL with data mesh capabilities for enterprises.
We are one of the fastest growing technology companies, with a strong culture focused on learning, excellence, teamwork, and ownership. Founded in 2017 by a seasoned team of data professionals, Crux has grown to over 100 employees and is backed by industry powerhouses, including Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and Two Sigma.
