Senior Data Platform Engineer

Responsibilities and Decisions: Contribute to and operate cloud platform infrastructure - manage GCP resources (GCS, Dataflow, Dataproc, k8s, Pub/Sub…), provision and maintain environments with Terraform and help ensure the platform is reliable, predictable, cost-efficient and scalable Build and maintain ingestion pipelines that capture changes from application databases, APIs, SaaS and deliver clean, analytics-ready tables to our cloud data warehouse Operate and improve our orchestration layer - scheduling, retries, SLA tracking, and observability for data pipelines Design data models with proper layering that handle real-world data complexity: out-of-order events, schema evolution, late arrivals, and backfills Own data quality monitoring - build validation, monitoring, and alerting that catches problems before downstream consumers do Implement privacy and compliance controls - anonymization, pseudonymization, access policies, and deletion propagation (GDPR right-to-be-forgotten) across raw and derived layers Prepare data for ML and AI use cases - build governed, privacy-safe datasets and feature pipelines that ML engineers and data scientists can use for model training, evaluation, and production inference Use AI effectively in engineering workflows - leverage AI-assisted development where it improves delivery quality and speed, and share best practices with

the team Build scalable AI platform capabilities - develop reusable, production-grade patterns for AI workloads (governed data access, privacy-safe telemetry, evaluation datasets, and cost/quality monitoring) that multiple teams can adopt Your Profile: 4+ years of experience in Data Engineering or a similar role (backend engineer working on data-intensive systems counts) Strong Python skills for data pipeline development - you write production code, not just scripts Strong SQL skills - window functions, CTEs, query optimization are second nature Experience with event-driven data pipelines - CQRS, event ordering, idempotency, and the difference between initial load and incremental processing Expert with Airflow - you’ve built DAGs with proper task dependencies, retries, and monitoring Strong Snowflake or other modern data warehouse knowledge - resource management (compute/warehouse sizing, concurrency), security & governance (roles/RBAC, column/row-level masking), columnar storage & partitioning/clustering concepts, and query performance & cost optimization in production Cloud platform experience - you’ve worked with GCP (GCS, Dataflow, Dataproc etc) or equivalent AWS/Azure services and understand how to manage cloud resources at scale Infrastructure-as-code - experience with Terraform, Helm, or similar tools for provisioning and managing cloud environments K8S and Docker containerization - you package and deploy your own work Data quality mindset - you profile data, validate assumptions, build checks, and don’t trust that “the data looked clean” Data for AI readiness - you have experience preparing data for ML and AI use cases with appropriate governance, lineage, and privacy controls Awareness of data privacy

requirements - you can identify PII, understand GDPR, and know how to implement anonymization and deletion across multiple data layers AI-enabled engineering practices - you actively use AI assistants and code generation tools to accelerate development and deliver, and you share effective practices with
