You'll work closely with Data Science and product teams, balancing hands-on pipeline development with platform-level decisions on cost, reliability, and scale. 

  • Responsibilities 

  • Design, build, and maintain data pipelines and orchestration workflows that move data from ingestion through transformation to serving layers 

  • Write and optimize SQL and PySpark for large-scale data processing and transformation 

  • Tune cloud data warehouse performance and cost (query optimization, refresh/scheduling strategy, resource sizing) as data volume and usage scale 

  • Build and maintain data quality checks and pipeline monitoring/alerting to catch issues before they reach downstream consumers 

  • Partner with Data Science to support feature engineering and analytics pipelines feeding ML/analytics workloads 

  • Collaborate with product and engineering stakeholders to translate business needs into reliable, scalable pipeline design 

  • Support incident response, root-cause analysis, and continuous improvement of the data platform 

  • Document architecture and pipeline design to support onboarding of new team members 

  • Contribute to platform-level decisions on architecture, tooling, and technical direction as the team and data volume scale 

Core Skill Set Required 

  • Strong SQL skills, including query optimization 

  • Proficient in Python and PySpark for large-scale/distributed data processing 

  • Hands-on experience with a workflow orchestration tool (e.g., Apache Airflow) 

  • Experience with a cloud data warehouse (e.g., Snowflake) 

  • Experience with relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL) 

  • Experience with cloud data infrastructure (AWS), including cloud storage and distributed processing (e.g., S3, EMR/Spark) 

  • 8+ years in data engineering with hands-on ownership of production data pipelines 

  • Strong communication skills; able to explain technical tradeoffs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders 

  • Good to Have 

  • Familiarity with streaming or change-data-capture (CDC) ingestion patterns (e.g., Apache Kafka) 

  • Experience building data quality frameworks and pipeline observability/alerting 

  • Exposure to ML/analytics pipeline support (feature engineering, model-serving data prep) 

  • Familiarity with monitoring and logging tools, such as Dynatrace, Prometheus, Grafana, or the ELK stack 

  • Strong knowledge of DevOps principles, continuous integration, continuous delivery, and infrastructure automation 

  • Hands-on experience with containerization technologies like Docker and container orchestration platforms like Kubernetes or OpenShift 

  • Experience with CI/CD and collaboration tooling such as Bamboo, Bitbucket, and Confluence 

  • Relevant certifications (e.g., SnowPro Core, SnowPro Advanced: Data Engineer, AWS Data Analytics) 

  • Experience building or supporting SaaS products 

  • Specialized experience with secure data sharing in Snowflake
