As a Data Engineer, you’ll play a key role in building modern, scalable, and high-performance data solutions on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). You’ll be part of our growing Data & AI team, designing and implementing data architectures that help clients unlock the full potential of their data.

Your job’s key responsibilities are:

• Building efficient and scalable ETL/ELT processes to ingest, transform, and load data from various structured and unstructured sources (databases, APIs, streaming platforms) into BigQuery and Cloud Storage
• Implementing data ingestion and real-time processing using Dataflow (Apache Beam) and Pub/Sub for batch and streaming workflows
• Developing SQL transformation workflows with Dataform, including version control, testing, and automated scheduling with built-in quality assertions
• Creating efficient, cost-optimized BigQuery queries with proper partitioning, clustering, and denormalization strategies
• Orchestrating complex workflows using Cloud Composer (Apache Airflow) and Cloud Functions for event-driven data processing
• Implementing centralized data governance and metadata management using Dataplex with automated cataloging and lineage tracking
• Monitoring and optimizing data pipelines for performance, scalability, and cost using Cloud Monitoring and Cloud Logging
• Collaborating with data scientists and analysts to understand data requirements and deliver actionable insights
• Staying up to date with GCP advancements in data services, BigQuery features, and data engineering best practices

• 3+ years of hands-on experience as a Data Engineer with proven expertise in Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
• Strong experience with BigQuery (SQL, partitioning, clustering, optimization) and Dataflow (Apache Beam)
• Strong programming skills in Python with experience in data manipulation libraries (PySpark, pandas)
• Expert-level SQL proficiency for complex transformations, optimization, and analysis
• Proficiency with Dataform for modular SQL-based data transformations and data pipeline management
• Solid understanding of data warehousing principles, ETL/ELT processes, dimensional modeling, and data governance
• Experience integrating data from various APIs and streaming systems (Pub/Sub)
• Cloud Composer experience for workflow orchestration
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills in English (min. B2 level)
• Ability to work independently and as part of an agile team

Beneficial Skills:

• Google Professional Data Engineer certification
• Knowledge of BigLake for unified access and management of structured and unstructured data
• Experience with Dataplex for managing metadata, lineage, and data governance
• Familiarity with Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform) for automating GCP resource provisioning and CI/CD pipelines
• Experience with data visualization tools such as Looker, Looker Studio, or Power BI
• Interest in or experience with machine learning workflows using Vertex AI or similar platforms
