Join to apply for the Senior Data Engineer role at Hi Marley

At Hi Marley, we’re not just a technology company—we’re on a mission to revolutionize the insurance industry with our conversational platform that makes communication simple, efficient, and delightful. Built for carriers, powered by SMS, and designed by insurance experts, Hi Marley connects people through seamless, friendly conversations that save time, money, and hassle. Our platform helps insurance carriers strengthen customer relationships while streamlining operations. With a focus on collaboration, coaching, and powerful analytics, we deliver the insights insurance teams need when they need them—creating a smooth, frictionless experience for customers along the way.

We’re looking for a Senior Data Engineer II to help expand our data engineering capabilities. In this hands-on role, you’ll contribute to the evolution of our data platform—building and improving the systems that power internal analytics and customer-facing intelligence. You’ll collaborate with product, engineering, and analytics teams to ensure data is structured, secure, and ready to support our growth.

This is an opportunity to join a foundational team and build scalable pipelines, data platform capabilities, and infrastructure that enable trusted insights. Your work will support both operational reporting and product analytics, while contributing to a growing data function.

Teamwork and shared enthusiasm is a core part of our culture, which is why this role involves joining us in the Boston office for two days each week

What You’ll Do:

Platform & Infrastructure

• Contribute to Data Platform Evolution – Help build and scale a robust, flexible platform that enables analytics and data-driven experiences across our products.
• Build Scalable Data Infrastructure – Develop reliable systems to ingest, transform, store, and serve data using batch and near real-time approaches.
• Deliver Trusted Data Pipelines – Build and maintain resilient, observable pipelines that connect APIs, databases, and event streams across internal and customer-facing use cases.
• Support Data Quality & Observability – Help advance practices in validation, monitoring, and governance to ensure high-quality and trustworthy data systems.
• Partner Across Teams – Work closely with analytics, product, and engineering to ensure data pipelines are structured, governed, and optimized to support key use cases.
• Contribute to Shared Data Models – Collaborate on well-documented, maintainable data models that meet the needs of multiple teams and stakeholders.

Team & Technical Growth

• Mentor and Contribute to Engineering Culture – Share best practices, contribute to standards, and support a collaborative, high-quality data engineering discipline.
• Explore and Introduce New Tools – Help evaluate new technologies and contribute to the evolution of our platform as our needs grow.

What We’re Looking For:

• Data Engineering Experience – 5+ years of experience building data systems, including hands-on work with data modeling, ETL/ELT pipelines, and SQL performance tuning.
• Strong AWS Foundation – Familiarity with AWS services including Aurora, S3, Lambda, and Terraform. You know your way around the ecosystem and can apply these tools pragmatically.
• Modern Data Stack Familiarity – Experience with tools such as Airflow, dbt, and Redshift or Snowflake for transformation and orchestration.
• Code-First Data Engineering – Comfort writing pipelines and workflows in Python or similar languages. You see data engineering as software engineering.
• Focus on Security and Governance – Experience working with sensitive data, implementing role-based access control, and ensuring data privacy and auditability.
• Collaborative Approach – Ability to work closely with cross-functional partners and translate ambiguous problems into clear engineering solutions.
• Bonus Experience
  
  
  
  • Experience supporting or building analytics platforms for end users or product-facing features.
  
  
  • Exposure to streaming or real-time data pipelines.
  
  
  • Familiarity with dbt for transformation logic and data modeling.
