DescriptionWhat you'll doDay-to-day, you'll split your time between independent problem-solving and collaborative innovation. Mornings might find you designing a new data pipeline architecture; afternoons, you'll debug solutions alongside your team, present technical decisions to stakeholders, and mentor engineers working through similar challenges.
Core responsibilities:- Independently design and develop cloud-native data pipelines on Google Cloud Platform (BigQuery, Dataflow, Cloud Storage, Cloud Composer, Pub/Sub) that ingest, process, and serve data from our enterprise data lake to power analytics across the organization

- Collaborate with cross-functional partners-including AI engineers, BI analytics leads, and customer outcome teams-to translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions that move the needle on real business outcomes
- Build and optimize complex SQL queries and Python data processing applications that meet enterprise-grade standards for performance, quality, security, and accessibility
- Support the team in evaluating Google Cloud technology choices, testing solutions, and implementing best practices in development, security, and data governance
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to the data engineering practice by applying modern Infrastructure as Code principles, documenting solutions, and sharing technical knowledge that elevates the team's capabilities
- Ensure production reliability by deploying, testing, and maintaining analytics pipelines with a commitment to high-quality service delivery for our internal and external customers
What you bringMust-haves:- Google Professional Data Engineer Certification (required)
- 3+ years of hands-on experience designing, building, and maintaining data pipelines and analytics solutions (GCP preferred; deep expertise in other major cloud platforms with strong GCP fundamentals acceptable)
- Advanced SQL skills including ability to build complex, performant queries for large-scale data sets
- Strong Python programming skills with experience building production-grade data processing applications
- Solid conceptual understanding of ETL/ELT processes, data pipeline architecture, databases, data warehouses, and data lakes
Nice-to-haves:- Version control (Git) and Infrastructure as Code experience
- Familiarity with Google Cloud security best practices and data governance frameworks
- Experience with data visualization tools (Looker, Google Data Studio, or Tableau Cloud)
- Exposure to Google AppScript or full-stack JavaScript for internal tooling and automation
- Experience working in regulated industries where data compliance matters
How you work:- You learn new cloud technologies and programming languages quickly and independently
- You thrive collaborating across multiple teams and disciplines-you ask good questions and share knowledge generously
- You have strong attention to detail and a commitment to producing quality, maintainable code
- You're comfortable operating in agile environments with iterative delivery and regular stakeholder feedback
