Senior Data Engineer to $6000

We are looking for a Data Engineer to design, develop, and optimize our data infrastructure on Databricks. You will architect scalable pipelines using BigQuery, Google Cloud Storage, Apache Airflow, dbt, Dataflow, and Pub/Sub, ensuring high availability and performance across our ETL/ELT processes. You will leverage Great Expectations to enforce data quality standards. The role also involves building our Data Mart (Data Mach) environment and implementing CI/CD best practices. A successful candidate has extensive knowledge of cloud-native data solutions, strong proficiency with ETL/ELT frameworks (including dbt), and a passion for building robust, cost-effective pipelines.

Responsibilities:

• Data Architecture & Strategy - Define and implement the overall data architecture on GCP, including data warehousing in BigQuery/Databricks, data lake patterns in Google Cloud Storage, and Data Mart (Data Mach) solutions. Integrate Terraform for Infrastructure as Code to provision and manage cloud resources efficiently. Establish both batch and real-time data processing frameworks to ensure reliability, scalability, and cost efficiency.
• Pipeline Development & Orchestration - Design, build, and optimize ETL/ELT pipelines using Apache Airflow for workflow orchestration. Implement dbt (Data Build Tool) transformations to maintain version-controlled data models in BigQuery, ensuring consistency and reliability across the data pipeline. Use Google Dataflow (based on Apache Beam) and Pub/Sub for large-scale streaming/batch data processing and ingestion. Automate job scheduling and data transformations to deliver timely insights for analytics, machine learning, and reporting.
• Event-Driven & Microservices Architecture - Implement event-driven or asynchronous data workflows between microservices. Employ Docker and Kubernetes (K8s) for containerization and orchestration, enabling flexible and efficient microservices-based data workflows. Implement CI/CD pipelines for streamlined development, testing, and deployment of data engineering components.
• Data Quality, Governance & Security - Enforce data quality standards using Great Expectations or similar frameworks, defining and validating expectations for critical datasets. Define and uphold metadata management, data lineage, and auditing standards to ensure trustworthy datasets. Implement security best practices, including encryption at rest and in transit, Identity and Access Management (IAM), and compliance with GDPR or CCPA where applicable.
• Scientists & Analytics Enablement - Collaborate with Data Science, Analytics, and Product teams to ensure the data infrastructure supports advanced analytics, including machine learning initiatives. Maintain Data Mart (Data Mach) environments that cater to specific business domains, optimizing access and performance for key stakeholders.
