About the role

  • We are looking for a Senior Data Engineer to help evolve our data ecosystem from homegrown ETL scripts to a modern, scalable stack built on tools like dbt, Airflow and Snowflake.
  • This is a high-impact individual contributor role with significant autonomy, technical ownership, and cross-functional exposure.

Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and own scalable ELT/ETL pipelines that power core use cases including client billing, financial reporting, product analytics and data services for downstream teams (Finance, Data Science, Commercial Analytics, Product).
  • Model data for usability and performance in Snowflake and other systems, applying dimensional and domain-driven design patterns where appropriate (e.g., for analytics core models and financial engineering services).
  • Partner closely with product, finance, analytics and integrations teams to understand requirements, define interfaces, and ensure data is accurate, well-documented, and delivered in the right form and cadence for consumers.
  • Balance short-term delivery with long-term architecture, making pragmatic trade-offs while moving us toward a clear "North Star" data platform that supports emerging use cases like AI/ML, personalization and experimentation.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to translate ambiguous business problems into clear technical requirements and to work effectively with partners across engineering, product and business teams.
  • Familiarity with analytics and visualization tools (e.g., Looker, Hex) and enabling self-serve analytics through well-designed semantic layers and models.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of hands-on data engineering (or closely related software engineering) experience, including ownership of production data pipelines and systems at scale.
  • Strong SQL and Python proficiency, with experience building data transformations, utilities and tooling (e.g., dbt models, Airflow DAGs, internal libraries).
  • Deep experience with modern data stack tools, including several of: Snowflake (or similar cloud data warehouse), dbt, Airflow/Dagster (or similar orchestrator).
  • Experience with data modeling and schema design for analytics, reporting and operational use cases (e.g., dimensional models, entity-centric designs, or medallion-style architectures).
  • Experience with metadata and data governance tools, such as OpenMetadata, DataHub or similar catalogs, and implementing data contracts or quality frameworks (e.g., Great Expectations, dbt tests).

Skills

  • Exposure to streaming and event-driven data pipelines (e.g., Kafka, CDC tools) and integrating those into warehouse-centric architectures.
