Senior Data Engineer

Job type: Contract — 12-month initial

Salary: Competitive hourly rate (DOE)

Role Location: 100% Remote (US-based candidates only)

The Company

Our client is a US-based pharmaceutical organization investing in its data infrastructure to support analytics, reporting and decision-making across the business. They're building out a modern data platform to serve research, commercial and operational teams.

They're looking for a Senior Data Engineer to design and build scalable data pipelines and infrastructure — initially engaged on a 12-month contract with strong potential to extend.

Role and Responsibilities

  • Design, build and maintain scalable data pipelines to ingest, transform and serve data across the business.
  • Develop and optimize data models supporting analytics, reporting and downstream applications.
  • Build and maintain ETL/ELT processes across a modern data stack.
  • Ensure data quality, integrity and governance across pipelines, appropriate for a regulated pharma environment.
  • Partner with data scientists, analysts and business stakeholders to understand data needs and deliver reliable datasets.
  • Monitor, troubleshoot and improve performance of existing data infrastructure.
  • Contribute to architecture decisions around data storage, processing and platform tooling.
  • Document data flows, pipelines and technical decisions to support audit and compliance requirements.

Job Requirements

  • Proven experience as a Senior Data Engineer building and maintaining production data pipelines at scale.
  • Strong SQL skills and experience with modern data platforms (e.g. Snowflake, Databricks, or similar).
  • Experience with ETL/ELT tools and orchestration frameworks (e.g. Airflow, dbt, or similar).
  • Strong Python or equivalent programming experience.
  • Experience with cloud data platforms (AWS, Azure or GCP).
  • Excellent communication skills, comfortable working with both technical and business stakeholders.
  • Must be based in the US and able to work US business hours.

Nice To Have

  • Experience within pharmaceutical, life sciences or other regulated industries.
  • Experience with real-time/streaming data pipelines (e.g. Kafka, Kinesis).
  • Familiarity with data governance and compliance frameworks relevant to regulated industries.
