Job description

Denodo Developer Contract Length: 6+ months Location: Dallas, Texas (hybrid – 3 days onsite) ****LOCAL CANDIDATES ONLY****

We're looking for a Denodo Developer to join a data engineering team building out modern, virtualized data integration solutions. In this role, you'll design and maintain the views that connect disparate data sources into unified, high-performing datasets, while helping the broader organization get faster answers from their data without the overhead of traditional ETL pipelines. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys solving performance puzzles, writing clean SQL/VQL, and working closely with cross-functional teams to turn data challenges into scalable virtual data solutions.

This is an opportunity to work at the intersection of data architecture and performance engineering, building solutions that make data faster and easier to access across the business, without duplicating it. If you like the challenge of optimizing queries, architecting clean data views, and being the go-to person for virtual data integration, we'd love to talk!
