Senior Data Engineer

The Senior Data Engineer will be a core member of the team building our next-generation data and analytics platform and advancing a data warehouse first, AI-centric operating model. Working in close partnership with the Head of Data & Analytics and the broader data team, this person will own system and technical architecture and co-own data architecture—while remaining hands-on in building the platform. They will shape how data is acquired, integrated, modeled, governed, and productized across operational, revenue, and strategic use cases. This is a product-building role, not a requirements-taking role. We expect the team to understand the business, anticipate what it will need next, and build reusable capabilities ahead of individual requests. As part of their technical architecture ownership, this role will lead the build of AI-enabled capabilities into our data products and operating model, while also using AI to accelerate development. The objective is practical leverage: combining trusted data, strong engineering, and AI to expand what the team and business can accomplish. Purpose Purpose Senior-level experience designing and building modern data platforms, with strong hands-on data engineering experience. Deep involvement in system, technical, and data architecture—contributing to architectural decisions, evaluating tradeoffs, and translating those decisions into working implementations. Ready to take the next step from influencing architecture to leading it, with the judgment, curiosity, and ambition to earn increasing architectural ownership as the platform and team mature. Strong experience with modern cloud data warehouses, ELT patterns, data modeling, orchestration, testing, and production data operations. Demonstrated ability to move fluidly between design and hands-on implementation—turning architectural concepts into durable, scalable products. Experience supporting multiple data consumption patterns, including analytics, operational workflows, APIs/integrations, and emerging AI use cases. Practical experience building AI-enabled data or application capabilities—or the technical foundation and curiosity to lead their development. Strong judgment around architectural tradeoffs including real-time vs. batch, direct integration vs. warehouse-mediated patterns, and speed vs. long-term maintainability. Comfortable working as a technical peer with data, analytics, application, integration, and business leaders. Strong documentation, collaboration, and knowledge-sharing discipline, with a bias toward creating reusable capabilities rather than one-off solutions. An accomplished individual contributor looking for a larger arena—motivated by the opportunity to help build the platform, establish the standards, shape how the team operates, and grow into broader technical leadership.
