Built Technologies- Full Time
- Senior (5 to 8 years)
Candidates require a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, along with 5 or more years of experience in event instrumentation, data pipelines, and data warehouses, preferably as a data architect. Proficiency in systems design and data modeling is essential, as is fluency with workflow management tools such as Airflow or dbt, and experience with modern data warehouses like Snowflake or BigQuery. Expertise in breaking down complex problems, documenting solutions, and sequencing work for iterative improvements is also needed, alongside familiarity with marketing data tech stacks, data visualization tools like Mode, Tableau, and Looker, and programming skills, particularly in Python, as well as knowledge of software design principles including test-driven development.
The Senior Data Engineer will drive direct business impact with executive-level visibility by designing technical architecture and implementing components from the ground up, working on the unique challenge of joining diverse data sets, and collaborating with data analysts and data scientists to design data models. They will also establish best practices for data engineering, assess build vs. buy tradeoffs, partner with infrastructure and product engineers to instrument services and user journeys, design and develop scalable data pipelines and integrations, and monitor their performance. Furthermore, this role involves learning and growing Data Science and Data Analytics skills, and potentially mentoring junior team members as the team grows.
