SENIOR DATA ENGINEER

FULLY REMOTE (US)

$160,000 - $180,000

An excellent opportunity for an experienced Senior Data Engineer to join a well-established business that has already completed a major platform transition. This is a backfill role with the team actively hiring and ready for someone to make an immediate impact.

This role suits a true Data Engineer - someone who designs and builds robust data systems rather than simply executing specs. You'll work on large-scale data ingestion and core pipeline frameworks with a strong focus on reliability and data quality.


THE COMPANY

You'll join a company operating at meaningful scale with a mature data platform. The environment is Linux-based, runs its own data center, and allows the data team to focus purely on engineering high-quality pipelines and frameworks - not infrastructure management.


THE ROLE

A hands-on role split between improving existing pipelines and onboarding new customers.

  • Design and build resilient ELT pipelines and data frameworks

  • Customize and extend Airflow, including writing operators

  • Build testing, validation, and data quality checks into pipelines

  • Ensure new customer implementations strengthen the core platform


YOUR SKILLS & EXPERIENCE

  • Very strong SQL

  • Strong Python for data engineering and ELT

  • Hands-on Airflow experience beyond basic usage

  • Experience with large-scale data ingestion

  • Linux environment experience

  • Exposure to modern analytical databases (Vertica preferred)

Nice to have: healthcare or transactional data experience
