## About the role

We’re looking for a Staff Data Engineer who can not just get their hands dirty building pipelines and also act as a thought leader for the company. Data sits at the center of everything we do, and we need someone who not only understands how to make it available, but how to make it accessible to everyone in the company. In the age of AI, making good decisions is key, and having accurate data is a core part of our decision-making process. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 7+ years hands-on experience working across the data ecosystem, from modern ETL/ELT and orchestration to data warehouses and columnar stores, from BI tooling for less-technical business users to SQL optimization
- AI-native mindset: you’re already using AI tools in your daily work and you’re excited to push further
- Experience with data warehouses such as Redshift or Snowflake (we use Redshift), data pipeline tools (we use Dagster), dbt, and medallion architecture
- Proficiency in Python
- Experience leading a horizontal Data Engineering team, working with analytics and product engineering teams
- Mentorship experience, both of data engineers and members of other teams who have to touch data products
