At Nelly, we're building data infrastructure that teams actually want to use. Our data doesn't just flow - it's discoverable, well-documented, and designed with the developer experience in mind. Every pipeline, schema, and tool we build ultimately serves a single goal: enabling teams to deliver more value to customers. We're moving beyond basic data pipelines toward a trusted, collaborative platform - one where data consumers can find what they need, understand how to use it, and contribute back to its evolution. These pipelines will power strongly AI-enabled products and user flows.
