In this pivotal role, you will partner with a newly hired Staff Data Engineer to architect the end-to-end delivery of our data ecosystem, ensuring that our leadership team has the timely, actionable insights they need to make informed decisions.

You will not just build tables; you will own the gold layer, transforming technical complexity into clear, reliable business logic. Your work will directly impact our ability to execute on our strategic plan by ensuring that metrics are defined consistently, trusted, and available quickly to leadership. You will champion a "data as a product" mindset, ensuring that the Business Operations team provides insights that power data-driven decisions across the company.

This is a demanding role in a results-oriented environment with high expectations for agency, speed, and ownership.

Key Responsibilities

• End-to-End Data Architecture: You will partner with the Staff Data Engineer to architect the complete data lifecycle. While they build the infrastructure, you will own the gold layer, designing the semantic layer and transforming silver level data in Databricks into optimized fact and dimension tables that serve as the single source of truth for the company. 
• Business Logic & Strategy: Translate complex, ambiguous business questions into concrete technical definitions. You will act as the key technical liaison to build consensus on enterprise-wide metric definitions, ensuring consistent logic across all reports.
• Data as a Product: Champion a product-oriented mindset by setting the standard for robust documentation, testing, and data model design.
• Mentorship & Standards: You will lead by example on best practices and code quality to ensure engineering rigor.
• Performance Tuning: Optimize the connection between Databricks and Power BI, designing models that balance computational load with query latency to ensure dashboards perform.

Required Qualifications

• Experience: 10+ years of relevant, progressive experience in Analytics Engineering, Software Engineering, or Data Engineering, with at least 4 years working in large-scale data lake/warehouse environments (e.g., Databricks). Prior ownership of large-scale data systems and business-critical metrics.
• Data Modeling Expertise: Mastery of dimensional modeling best practices. You must be an expert in designing modular, reusable, and performant data models (Star Schema, Snowflake Schema) that serve as the foundation for analytics
• Advanced SQL & Optimization: Proficiency in advanced SQL techniques and performance tuning.
• LLM Application: Experience leveraging LLMs and AI-assisted development tools to accelerate data engineering workflows, improve code quality, and automate repetitive technical tasks.
• Intermediate to Advanced Python: Strong expertise in Python for scripting, automation, and data manipulation (Pandas).
• Data Visualization Architecture: Deep proficiency in Power BI or Tableau, understanding how to architect semantic models that enable polished, high-performance dashboards for executive stakeholders.
• Business Acumen & Communication: Strong ability to translate technical concepts into business value. You must be able to partner with non-technical stakeholders to define gold level metrics and manage projects across teams.
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Engineering, or a closely related technical field.
