You have deep expertise in data architecture, data wrangling, Databricks or Snowflake, and are a master of Python, SQL, and AWS.
What You'll Do

- Collaborate and multiply: Act as a key "force multiplier" within our cross-functional teams, leading ambiguous projects from conception to delivery.
- Be a flexible leader: Embrace a "builder" mentality. In a startup, you'll have the flexibility to solve diverse challenges, and your voice will be critical in shaping our technical roadmap.
What You Bring (Requirements)
- 5-8+ years of professional data engineering experience.
- Deep, expert-level proficiency with Python.
- Deep, expert-level proficiency with SQL.
- Hands-on, expert-level experience with Databricks OR Snowflake (certifications or experience with both is a huge plus).
- Expert-level experience building and managing data solutions on AWS.
- Deep expertise in designing and architecting scalable data platforms.
- Proven ability to lead complex, ambiguous projects from conception to delivery.
- Experience mentoring other engineers and helping to level up the team.
