Jobbeschreibung

About the Role

As a Senior Data Engineer (DE) at Planet, you will own, design and build enterprise ETL pipelines and self‑service data tooling using modern cloud technologies. You will work closely with cross‑functional stakeholders across the company to understand their needs and to deliver robust, flexible solutions and clear insights to meet those needs. You will build data solutions end to end: architecture, implementation, CI/CD and orchestration of pipelines, QA, visualization and effective data communication. You’ll be part of the Data Team within the Software Engineering organization, which is made up of data scientists, engineers and analysts working on similar tasks across Planet domains.

You will own the ongoing evolution of data solutions supporting monitoring and analysis of Planet’s Missions team and Constellation Services (CxS) products, a new line of products which support large customers in buying secure access and reserved capacity on our satellites. You will collaborate closely with CxS-focused counterparts on our Product, Engineering, Space Systems and Commercial orgs to ensure they have the data they need to evaluate the success of the products. This role will appeal to candidates who are looking for opportunities to evolve a complex data system end to end and bring needed technology to the defense and intelligence sector.

This is a full-time, hybrid role which will require you to work from our Berlin office 3 days per week.

Impact You’ll Own

• Develop and own robust, accurate data pipelines as well as maintain, troubleshoot, and improve existing ones
• Deliver self‑service data tooling, visualizations and insights needed to drive decision making and monitoring around CxS products
• Collaborate with stakeholders, your manager and peers to define and develop the CxS data roadmap
• Provide mentorship, technical design feedback and code reviews for peers within your team and across the broader org

What You Bring

• 6+ years of relevant experience
• Bachelors’ degree in a relevant field
• Experience designing and implementing data architecture for data solutions end to end, from ingestion through insight and with an eye for data accuracy
• Expertise in Python and SQL ETL pipeline buildout
• Experience with the modern data stack: Fivetran, dbt, Looker/Omni/Sigma, or similar
• Ability to be a self‑starter for solving problems in a dynamic environment
• Ability to clearly communicate and collaborate with cross‑functional teams
• Experience with maintaining peer‑reviewed code and continuous integration and deployment workflows and tooling like GitLab CI and Docker or similar
• Experience with cloud architectures and services, such as Google Cloud Platform (preferred) or AWS
• Experience working with geospatial datasets and event‑based data architectures

What Makes You Stand Out

• Experience with messaging services (Pub/Sub, RabbitMQ, etc) and real‑time streaming
• Experience with monitoring and observability tools like Datadog, Grafana, or equivalent
• Knowledge of earth observation and/or satellite operation concepts
