Senior Data Engineer | Financial Services

As a Senior Data Engineer at Red Ventures, you’ll build data products and create the foundation that powers our machine learning and business analytics efforts. You’ll work hand-in-hand with a variety of stakeholders from functional groups across the organization to create end-to-end solutions. Red Ventures is a high-autonomy, high-ownership environment; you’ll own your work from idea to production solution. Our data engineering tech stack is primarily AWS and Spark/Scala via Databricks, though we welcome strong applicants from a wide variety of technical backgrounds. We believe that diverse, inclusive teams are better teams. Think of the bullets below as guidelines: if you only partially meet the qualifications on this posting, we encourage you to apply anyway! 

What You'll Do

• Iterate - Red tape doesn’t get in our way. We believe that "Speed Trumps Perfection" so we test and deploy daily.
• Autonomy – Aspiring entrepreneurs succeed here because you will have full-ownership over your work from beginning to end.
• Innovate – With the belief that “Everything is Written in Pencil”, we encourage our teams to test new frameworks, learn new languages and challenge the “status quo” to make us better.

Our Senior Data Engineers on the Financial Services vertical are responsible for building the data processing pipelines that power products like the Bankrate.com, and new business launches like our Sage Mortgage Brokerage. This upcoming year we are planning to evolve our underlying data engineering tech stack by evaluating a data catalog product (Alation/Datahub), building tools to automate common-place ETL changes, and deepening our expertise in streaming data processing.

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of experience performing production data engineering/ETL work
• Experience working on Spark (RDDs / Data Frames / Dataset API) using Scala/Python to build and maintain complex ETL pipelines
• A technical leader who can act as a technical mentor for more junior data engineers on the team
• Scala would be ideal but a solid knowledge of Python or Java is also acceptable
• Experience with one of the major cloud providers (we use AWS but we welcome candidates with experience in Azure or GCP)
• Experience with one of the major data warehousing solutions (we use Redshift but we welcome candidates with experience in Snowflake, Oracle or Teradata)
• Experience with GitHub and CI/CD processes
• Experience with Airflow is a plus
