Job Summary

We are seeking a Senior Data Engineer with strong experience in designing, building, and orchestrating data pipelines using modern data platform technologies. The ideal candidate has a deep understanding of scalable data architectures and is passionate about enabling data-driven decision-making across the organization.

This role requires hands-on expertise with tools such as Spark, Airflow, and Redshift, and a mindset focused on automation, scalability, and reliability. Candidates who bring a DevOps-oriented approach to data engineering—streamlining deployment, monitoring, and maintenance—will thrive in this environment.

Responsibilities and Duties

  • Design, develop, and maintain scalable and reliable data pipelines to support analytics, reporting, and application data needs.

  • Orchestrate complex data workflows and scheduling using Apache Airflow or similar tools.

  • Work with large-scale data processing frameworks such as Apache Spark to clean, transform, and aggregate data.

  • Build and manage data storage and warehousing solutions using Amazon Redshift or comparable platforms.

  • Ensure data quality, lineage, and consistency across multiple sources and destinations.

  • Collaborate closely with Data Analysts, Data Scientists, and other Engineers to deliver high-quality data solutions.

  • Implement best practices for data pipeline monitoring, testing, and version control.

  • Optimize data systems for performance, scalability, and cost efficiency.

Qualifications and Skills

  • 5+ years of experience in data engineering or a related field.

  • Proven experience with data pipeline orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow, Luigi, Prefect).

  • Hands-on experience with Spark for large-scale data processing.

  • Strong proficiency with SQL and data warehouse design (preferably on AWS Redshift or similar).

  • Solid understanding of ETL/ELT frameworks, data modeling, and data lifecycle management.

  • Experience with cloud environments (preferably AWS) and related services.

  • Strong programming skills in Python or Scala.

  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.

  • Strong communication and collaboration abilities across technical and non-technical teams.

Nice to have

  • Experience applying DevOps principles (automation, CI/CD, monitoring, infrastructure as code) to data engineering.

  • Familiarity with containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).

  • Exposure to real-time data streaming tools (e.g., Kafka, Kinesis).

  • Knowledge of data observability and data governance frameworks.
