Data Engineer

We’re looking for a data engineer who not only builds pipelines but understands why the data matters. This role is ideal for someone who can translate business goals into reliable, meaningful data models — ensuring every transformation, metric, and dashboard accurately reflects real-world performance.

You’ll work collaboratively across analytics, engineering, and business teams to design, implement, and maintain high-quality data pipelines and models using the Google Cloud Platform stack.

Key Responsibilities:

• Ensure Data Accuracy & Business Relevance
• Consistently validate outputs against expected business outcomes, spotting anomalies and ensuring data makes sense in real-world context.
• Partner with analysts and stakeholders to interpret data requirements and ensure transformations reflect business logic and intent.
• Design & Maintain Modern Data Infrastructure
• Build and optimize ELT pipelines using Airflow (Cloud Composer), Dataform, and BigQuery.
• Support the design and implementation of robust GCP data warehouse architecture, ensuring scalability and governance.
• Model and Transform Data for Insight
• Develop efficient SQL transformations and modular workflows in Dataform (or dbt).
• Build and maintain semantic layer models in LookML to power Looker and Looker Studio dashboards.
• Data Quality, Observability, and Governance
• Implement proactive data quality checks, anomaly detection, and pipeline monitoring.
• Own data integrity through version control, DevOps practices, and QA of production outputs.
• Collaborative Problem Solving
• Work closely with analysts and business stakeholders to align metrics, data definitions, and use cases.
• Provide input on data management strategy, master data, and architecture evolution.
• Continuous Improvement & Innovation
• Stay current on advancements in GCP, data modeling, and machine learning.
• Recommend new tools and techniques to improve data reliability, observability, and usability.

Required Skills & Experience:

• 3+ years building and maintaining data pipelines using GCP tools (BigQuery, Composer, Dataform/dbt, Dataflow, Pub/Sub, etc.)
• Strong SQL (especially in BigQuery) and Python proficiency
• Proven experience validating and reconciling data against business logic or benchmarks
• Experience designing data models and transformations that reflect business processes and KPIs
• Experience orchestrating complex data workflows (Airflow/Composer or similar)
• Familiarity with GCP best practices, Cloud Monitoring, and Cloud Storage
• Prior experience integrating data from GA4, Salesforce, or similar SaaS platforms
• Strong communication skills and a curiosity to understand business needs deeply

Preferred Skills

• Knowledge of Salesforce objects and APIs
• Experience with Looker / LookML development
• Familiarity with JIRA, Git, and DevOps practices
• Understanding of data governance, lineage, and MDM concepts

Our ideal candidate is the kind of data engineer who:

• Thinks critically about whether the data reflects reality — not just whether the query runs.
• Enjoys troubleshooting ambiguous data issues and connecting them to business context.
• Collaborate with analysts and stakeholders to make data a trusted strategic asset.
• Balances engineering rigor with pragmatic business understanding.
