About the role
We are looking for a Senior Data Engineer to architect, build, and scale a modern data platform — designing production-grade ETL/ELT pipelines, optimizing Snowflake data warehouse schemas, and establishing robust DataOps practices. You will orchestrate workflows using Airflow, Prefect, or Dagster, implement data quality and lineage frameworks, integrate third-party REST APIs and event-driven sources, and apply software engineering standards including CI/CD, Docker, and automated testing to data repositories. The role prioritizes clean, well-tested Python code and a deep commitment to data reliability and accessibility.
What you will do
● Design, build, and maintain reliable, scalable ETL/ELT workflows that process batch and streaming data from diverse sources;
● Design production-ready normalized and denormalized schemas in Snowflake to optimize query performance and support enterprise analytics;
● Connect and ingest data from third-party REST APIs, event-driven streams, and batch sources into core data storage platforms;
● Maintain and expand workflow orchestration pipelines using Airflow, Prefect, or Dagster;
● Implement automated data testing, validation, lineage tracking, and proactive alerting frameworks to ensure data accuracy and system uptime;
● Drive CI/CD best practices, maintain codebases using Git and Docker, and adopt Infrastructure-as-Code patterns;
● Apply modern software engineering standards, including design patterns, automated unit and integration testing, and clear documentation.
Must haves
● 4+ years of experience as a Data Engineer;
● Strong proficiency in Python, including modular, maintainable, and well-tested code;
● Advanced knowledge of SQL, query optimization, database design principles, and normalization/denormalization patterns;
● Hands-on experience with Snowflake;
● Production experience with workflow orchestration tools such as Apache Airflow, Prefect, or Dagster;
● Experience working with REST APIs, event-driven architectures, and batch and streaming pipelines;
● Experience implementing automated data quality checks, data lineage, and alerting mechanisms;
● Strong experience with Git, Docker, CI/CD automation, and Infrastructure-as-Code fundamentals;
● Upper-intermediate English level.
Nice to haves
● Experience with dbt for data transformations;
● Familiarity with major cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, or Azure;
● Experience with message streaming technologies such as Apache Kafka or AWS Kinesis.
