ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Middle Data Engineer to help modernize a 15-year-old data warehouse into a governed Databricks Lakehouse. You will build batch and streaming pipelines with PySpark and Delta Lake, following a medallion architecture across bronze, silver, and gold layers. This role also uses AI tools like Claude and GitHub Copilot to speed up development.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Design, build, and operate batch and streaming data pipelines on Databricks using PySpark, Delta Lake, and Databricks Workflows.
• Model and maintain a medallion (bronze/silver/gold) architecture serving analytics, reporting, and machine learning consumers.
• Migrate legacy ETL and data warehouse workloads onto the Lakehouse with validated data parity and minimal business disruption.
• Use Claude or Github Copilot as a development accelerator, generating code scaffolding, writing and reviewing tests, creating documentation and prototyping solutions.
• Write clean, well-tested Python and SQL; maintain high standards through code review and documentation.
• Optimize Spark jobs and Delta tables for performance and cost, including partitioning, clustering, caching, and cluster sizing.
• Implement data quality, lineage, and governance controls using Unity Catalog and automated validation checks.
• Debug, troubleshoot, and resolve pipeline failures, data defects, and production incidents.
• Collaborate with DevOps, platform, and analytics engineers on observability, security, and compliance best practices.

MUST HAVES

• 3+ years of professional experience in data engineering, featuring direct expertise with Apache Spark and cloud-based data architectures.
• Strong hands-on experience building data pipelines with Databricks, Apache Spark (PySpark), and Delta Lake.
• Advanced SQL and Python, with strong data modeling skills across dimensional and Lakehouse patterns.
• Experience with streaming ingestion using Structured Streaming, Auto Loader, Kafka, or Event Hubs.
• Experience with workflow orchestration (Databricks Workflows, Airflow, or Azure Data Factory).
• Experience with legacy platform migrations, ETL modernization, or managing data hygiene when porting old systems.
• Strong problem-solving, collaboration, and communication skills.
• Familiarity with Unity Catalog, data governance, access control, and PII handling.
• Experience with dbt or an equivalent transformation framework.
• Familiarity with secure coding standards and industry security best practices.
• Experience delivering production data platforms at scale.
• Upper-intermediate English level.

NICE TO HAVES

• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform and CI/CD using Azure DevOps.
• Experience working with relational databases (specifically PostgreSQL) and data persistence concepts.
• Familiarity with logging and monitoring tools (e.g., Dynatrace, CloudWatch, Databricks system tables).
• Experience working in Agile or team-based development environments preferred.

PERKS AND BENEFITS

• Growth without limits: build your skills through mentorship, internal TechTalks, challenging projects, and a dedicated annual learning budget
• Competitive compensation: get recognition that reflects your skills and impact, with regular performance and compensation reviews
• Flexibility: work 100% remotely with flexible hours that support focus, autonomy, and a healthy work rhythm
• Meaningful, modern projects: build impactful products using modern technologies alongside global teams and leading brands
