What you'll do

The Global Technology – Data & Analytics team builds and operates the data platforms that power Viasat's business decisions. We're in the middle of a meaningful shift — migrating from an Azure/SAP-centric stack to a modern GCP foundation built on BigQuery, Airbyte, DBT, Prefect, and Looker — and we need someone who wants to build, not just maintain.

You'll work directly alongside our Platform Lead and a distributed team across the US, UK, and India to deliver reliable, observable, and governed data capabilities. Your work will directly power enterprise data products in Time/Labor, Procurement, HR, and executive visibility dashboards. You'll also have early exposure to our Agentic AI development initiative.
