Cloudera Careers

Cloudera is a U.S.-based enterprise software company specializing in data management, analytics, and cloud-based data platforms. Founded in 2008, the company became one of the early commercial pioneers of Apache Hadoop and big data technologies. Cloudera’s mission is to enable organizations to transform complex data into actionable insights through secure, scalable, and hybrid cloud data solutions. Its flagship offering, the Cloudera Data Platform (CDP), provides tools for data engineering, data warehousing, machine learning, and real-time analytics across public cloud and on‑premises environments.

Headquartered in Santa Clara, California, Cloudera employs several thousand people worldwide and serves major enterprises across finance, telecommunications, healthcare, government, and technology sectors. In 2019, Cloudera merged with Hortonworks, another leading Hadoop-based data platform company, strengthening its position in the enterprise data ecosystem. In 2021, the company was taken private by investment firms KKR and Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, enabling it to focus on expanding its hybrid data cloud strategy and advanced analytics capabilities.
