Jobber exists to help people in small businesses be successful. We work with small home service businesses, like your local plumbers, painters, and landscapers, to transform the way service is delivered through technology. With Jobber they can quote, schedule, invoice, and collect payments from their customers while providing an easy and professional customer experience. Running a small business today isn’t like it used to be—the way we consume and deliver service is changing rapidly, technology is evolving, and customers expect more. That’s why we put the power and flexibility in their hands to run their businesses how, where, and when they want!

With an Executive team that has over thirty years of industry experience of leading the way, we’ve come a long way from our first customer in 2011—but we’ve just scratched the surface of what we want to accomplish for our customers.

We help employees grow professionally; we have a ton of onboarding resources, tutorials, hackathons and buddies to support learnings and provide opportunities to innovate. We have a range of experience levels on teams which allows for mentor/mentee opportunities. Leaders at Jobber work with empathy and support employees to build healthy work-life harmony. Bring your dedication and passion to this job to fulfill your goals

The role:

We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Data Engineer with a strong focus in data modelling, data engineering practices and data standards to play a key role in the development and evolution of our Data Integration Platform.  The ideal candidate will manage data ingress systems, manage pipelines that transform data, build models to improve ease of integration with external CRM systems and build tools to automate components of data ingress/egress. The data engineer will work closely with the Data Platform team to establish Data contracts for data in the raw layer, implement data quality practices and collaborate with GTM teams to move data to external systems for time critical use-cases. This role is crucial to enabling seamless integration of data between Jobber and external systems. 

At Jobber we never stop growing and learning, and you shouldn’t either.  Through continuous 1:1s, dedicated feedback and support from your manager and our Talent Development team, and your own sense of curiosity, we hope you develop to another level with your skill set.

As our Senior Data Engineer, you will:

Empower the Team

• Develop tools, frameworks, and workflows that reduce manual processes, enhance data accessibility, and enable data-driven decision-making.
• Build robust alerting and monitoring systems to maintain data quality and reliability.
• Collaborate across functions to support experiments and analyses that drive impactful business decisions.
• Day-to-day experience working closely with software engineering teams, fostering a collaborative environment for data-driven development.

Accelerate Business Growth

• Work closely with data platform engineers, data scientists and product teams to sync data between Jobber and external systems.
• Use tools like Airflow and dbt to streamline ETL/ELT workflows, ensuring seamless data flow and integration.
• Build data models that enable easier integration and self-serve in the Data Integration Platform

Strategize, Plan, & Innovate

• Lead initiatives to research and propose emerging technologies, strengthening our data stack with a focus on performance, scalability, and maintainability.
• Participate in design and code reviews, actively contributing to knowledge sharing and mentoring within the team.

Ensure Data Integrity

• Take ownership of data quality, establishing best practices to maintain high trust in data across the organization.

As our Senior Data Engineer, your core skills include:

Data Engineering and Infrastructure

• Excellent ETL pipeline development skills and hands on experience with Orchestration (Airflow)
• Experience with CI/CD practices and optimizing data flow within high-volume, scalable infrastructures.
• Experience with Data ingestion systems (Fivetran/Airbyte) and Reverse ETL systems (HighTouch/Census)
• Experience with dimensional modeling, star schemas and warehousing concepts.
• Experience with message queues (Kafka), real-time stream processing and lambda architecture.

Building Scalable Data Platform Solutions

• Proficiency in designing, developing, and maintaining efficient batch and real-time data pipelines within a cloud infrastructure (preferably AWS).
• Strong skills in SQL, stream processing, Containerization (ECS orchestration) and AWS Lambda to create reliable and scalable data solutions.
• Expertise in developing scripts, serverless applications, and automated workflows to ensure data integrity and accessibility.

Communication and Collaboration

• Ability to explain complex data concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• You can work independently, collaborating with cross-functional teams and stakeholders to meet data needs and contribute to data-driven decision-making.

It would be really great (but not a deal-breaker) if you had:

• Experience with CRM systems (such as Salesforce, Hubspot, Zendesk)
• Experience with Data warehouses (Redshift) and Lakehouse (Iceberg / Delta) 
• Hands-on experience with NoSQL databases and working knowledge of RESTful and GraphQL APIs for seamless data integrations.

And the work environment:

At Jobber you will choose where you do your most impactful work from! You can work from home across Canada, or in a hybrid setting from one of our offices in Edmonton (HQ) or Toronto.
