## 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
