  • Build and support ETL/ELT processes using SQL, Python, and Spark to ingest, transform, and curate datasets
  • Collaborate with stakeholders to translate business requirements into technical data solutions
  • Ensure data quality, integrity, and performance through testing, monitoring, and optimization
  • Contribute to data platform design decisions, tooling selection, and engineering best practices (increasing influence at higher levels)
  • Implement and support CI/CD pipelines for data workflows and assist with deployment and maintenance of data applications
  • Apply data governance, security, and metadata management best practices

Qualifications (aligned to expertise level):

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology, or a related quantitative field (or equivalent experience)

  • US Citizenship and must be able to obtain and maintain security clearance
  • Emerging / Junior Data Engineer:
    • Foundational knowledge of SQL and Python (or similar language)
    • Exposure to Databricks, Apache Spark, or distributed data processing concepts through coursework, internships, or projects
    • Understanding of basic data modeling and ETL/ELT concepts
    • Ability to work within established pipelines and contribute to data workflows with guidance
  • Mid-Level Data Engineer:
    • Hands-on experience building and maintaining data pipelines using Databricks and Spark
    • Strong SQL and programming skills (Python and/or Scala)
    • Experience designing data models and optimizing data processing workflows
    • Ability to independently deliver data solutions and troubleshoot performance issues
  • Senior Data Engineer:
    • Deep expertise in Databricks, Spark, and large-scale data processing architectures
    • Proven ability to design and implement scalable data platforms and lakehouse architectures
    • Strong experience with performance tuning, data reliability, and cost optimization
    • Ability to lead technical design, mentor team members, and influence data engineering best practices
    • Experience working cross-functionally to define data strategy and architecture
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders

Preferred Qualifications:
