Remote Vba Developer Jobs in Augusta, GA (NOW HIRING)

Referral Eligible 

Zapata Technology is hiring a Software / Data Engineer to own and modernize a mission-critical data ecosystem. This is not a “run the pipeline” role — this is a build the next generation data platform role. You’ll take an environment currently powered by custom ASP.NET apps, Postgres stored procedures, and legacy VBA scripts and architect the transition to modern, scalable ETL and orchestration frameworks like Apache NiFi and Airflow. If you enjoy untangling complex data systems, designing clean pipelines, and turning “it works but no one knows how” into “it’s automated, documented, and scalable” — this role is for you.

100% Remote

What You’ll Actually Do (Job Functions)

• Own the design and evolution of our ETL and data pipeline architecture

• Design high-performance Postgres data models, queries, and stored procedures 
• Build ingestion and transformation services using Python, ASP.NET, and SQL 
• Lead the migration from custom ETL processes to modern tools (NiFi, Airflow) 
• Create data pipelines that power analytics, reporting, and operational systems 
• Improve data quality, observability, and governance across the platform 
• Partner with stakeholders to translate messy requirements into clean data solutions 
• Document and automate everything so the system scales beyond any one person 

The Environment Today

What We’re Looking For (Job Requirements)

• Strong experience building ETL/data pipelines without relying solely on ETL tools 
• Deep SQL and Postgres performance tuning experience 
• Experience writing data services in Python, C#, or ASP.NET 
• Experience modernizing legacy data environments 
• Comfort owning architecture decisions and working independently 
• Experience migrating systems to AWS 
• Familiarity with Spark, Databricks, or distributed processing is a plus 
• Shell scripting and automation experience 
• Experience working in Agile teams 
• 4+ years of software or data engineering experience 
• Strong SQL and database design background 
• Experience building and maintaining ETL processes

Why Engineers Like This Role
