Senior Data Engineer (Data Quality & Governance)

SENIOR DATA ENGINEER - DATA QUALITY & GOVERNANCE (Canada)

This role supports the expansion of a newly established Data Centre of Excellence within the CTO organization as the company centralizes data ownership across Core, RAN, Transport, and Network Operations on Google Cloud Platform. The need is driven by a growing skillset gap as the organization shifts toward a quality-first data engineering model and scales enterprise data platforms.

The Data Engineer will act as a quality gate for Google Cloud Platform-based data pipelines, embedding automated data validation, monitoring, and governance into data workflows to ensure reliable, audit-ready, and trusted data. The ideal candidate is a senior-level data engineer with strong hands-on Google Cloud Platform experience who is passionate about data quality, pipeline reliability, and operational excellence. This individual is comfortable working across engineering, architecture, and security teams, proactively identifying issues before they impact downstream consumers, and continuously improving data pipelines through root cause analysis and infrastructure-as-code practices.
