Job description

Above Lending is a next-generation financial services company helping everyday Americans break the cycle of high-cost debt and move toward a stronger financial future. Through customized lending solutions, competitive rates, and personalized support, our mission is to simplify the lending process and help our clients achieve financial well-being. We are committed to making credit more affordable and accessible; backed by a culture grounded in compliance and ethics, and technology built around the people we serve.

We are growing quickly, and we are looking for new collaborators to help us reach the next level. If you want to join a forward-thinking, rapidly growing organization where helping people is the number one goal, we want to hear from you.


We're looking for a Senior Data Engineer who operates like an owner and thinks like a Systems Engineer.

This is a deeply hands-on role. You'll spend the majority of your time writing SQL, building pipelines, and working directly with raw data. Beyond pure engineering, we expect some experience in database upkeep and maintenance, as well as the ability to analyze data - spotting patterns, questioning results, and understanding what the numbers actually mean. You'll take ambiguous problems, break them down, and deliver reliable, scalable solutions without step-by-step guidance.

Strong candidates will be comfortable with messy source data, incomplete documentation, and figuring things out. If you need heavy direction or clean inputs to do your best work, this role likely isn't the right fit.

This is a hybrid role based in Chicago, IL. We are not hiring remote candidates at this time. 
What You'll Do
  • Build and own end-to-end data pipelines (ingestion staging marts) using Snowflake, Airflow, Fivetran, and DBT.
  • Work directly with raw data. Identify issues and implement fixes in base and staging layers before they propagate downstream.
  • Design data models that are simple, scalable, and trusted by the business.
  • Write advanced, high-performance SQL.
  • Understand the underlying database technology: execution plans, indexing, clustering, and storage behavior.
  • Debug data issues deeply, tracing problems across systems.
  • Use Python for ETL automation, scripting.
  • Build and enforce data quality checks that prevent bad data from reaching consumers.
  • Monitor pipelines proactively and resolve issues.
What You Bring
  • 5+ years of hands-on data engineering experience - including administration or support. 
  • Fintech or similarly data-intensive environments preferred.
  • Expert-level SQL: joins, window functions, performance trade-offs.
  • Proven experience building data models and marts from raw, imperfect source data.
  • Solid Python skills applied to practical data engineering problems.
  • Hands-on experience with Snowflake, Airflow, Fivetran, and DBT.
  • A high bar for data quality - you don't trust a number until you've validated it.
  • The ability to operate independently, make decisions under ambiguity, and follow problems through to resolution.
What Sets You Apart
  • You've debugged data issues others couldn't explain.
  • You've worked with poorly documented or unreliable source systems and made them usable.
  • You've said "this number is wrong" - and proved it.
  • You care about correctness as much as performance.
  • You default to solving problems, not escalating them.
$110,000 - $150,000 a year
This role is eligible for additional incentives, including an annual bonus. These rewards are allocated based on level, impact and performance in the role. The compensation range is based on the level outlined in the job posting, and compensation decisions are dependent on each applicant's experience, skills and abilities.
Join our dynamic team and contribute to Above Lending's success as we continue to provide innovative lending solutions to our customers.
