About the role

We are looking for our first in-house Data Engineer to own and evolve our core data infrastructure. This is an early and high-impact role. As the data engineering function grows under Engineering, you'll have a real voice in shaping how it's built - the processes, standards, and team culture.

What they're looking for

  • 4+ years of professional experience in data engineering, ideally at a high-growth startup or fast-moving team within a larger organization
  • Hands-on experience with the modern data stack - proficiency with BigQuery (or a comparable cloud warehouse), dbt, and an orchestration tool like Dagster or Airflow
  • Strong SQL skills and fluency in Golang, Python, or another common Data Engineering language
  • Track record of improving or modernizing data systems iteratively - you're comfortable inheriting legacy infrastructure and systems and making them progressively better
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills - able to work fluidly across both technical and business-oriented teams
More about this role

At any given time, 16 million Americans are experiencing a crisis that requires urgent help from our legal system or government. The right assistance could transform their lives. But today, most never get it.

Atticus makes it easy for any sick or injured American to get life-changing aid. Our mission is to tear down barriers between people in crisis and the aid they deserve. In the last six years, we’ve become the leading platform connecting people with disabilities to government benefits.

We also help victims of accidents, misconduct, and violence get compensation from insurance. So far, we’ve helped hundreds of thousands of people access over $10 billion in life-changing aid —and earned over 20,000 five-star reviews. And we’re just getting started.

We've raised more than $100 million from top VC firms like Forerunner, Google Ventures, and True Ventures, and we’re on our way to creating a category defining business assisting Americans in need.
