The Opportunity
ShyftLabs is seeking an experienced Senior / Lead Data Engineer to lead the design, architecture, and delivery of enterprise-scale data platforms for Fortune 500 organizations.

  • Own technical delivery across multiple client engagements while ensuring high-quality engineering standards.
  • Define solution architecture, technical roadmaps, and implementation strategies aligned with client business goals. 
  • Conduct architecture reviews, code reviews, and establish engineering best practices across project teams.
  • Mentor and coach Data Engineers while fostering technical excellence and continuous learning.
  • Serve as the primary technical leader for complex engineering initiatives and critical project decisions.
Client Partnership

  • Lead discovery workshops, architecture sessions, and technical planning meetings with both business and engineering stakeholders.
  • Present solution designs, delivery plans, and architectural recommendations to technical leadership and executive audiences.
  • Build trusted relationships with client teams while providing technical guidance throughout project execution.
  • Support pre-sales activities by contributing technical expertise, solution estimates, and implementation approaches when required.
Data Engineering & Platform Development
  • Design, develop, and optimize enterprise-grade data pipelines using the Databricks Unified Analytics Platform.
  • Build scalable ETL and ELT frameworks capable of processing large-scale structured and unstructured datasets.
  • Design and implement Lakehouse architectures using Delta Lake and Medallion design patterns.
  • Develop high-performance Spark applications for batch and real-time data processing.
  • Integrate data from enterprise applications, APIs, streaming platforms, and cloud storage solutions.
  • Ensure data quality, integrity, and reliability through automated validation, testing, and monitoring.
Cloud & DevOps
  • Architect cloud-native data platforms across AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform.
  • Implement Infrastructure-as-Code using Terraform or similar technologies.
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines supporting automated testing and deployment.
  • Optimize cloud infrastructure for scalability, reliability, security, and cost efficiency.
  • Monitor platform performance and proactively resolve operational issues.
Data Governance & Security
  • Implement enterprise data governance frameworks and security best practices.
  • Configure Unity Catalog, metadata management, lineage, and role-based access controls.
  • Ensure compliance with organizational security standards and regulatory requirements.
  • Promote data observability and operational excellence across production environments
Cross-Functional Collaboration
  • Partner closely with Product Managers, Data Scientists, Analytics Engineers, Machine Learning Engineers, and Software Engineers to deliver high-impact data products.
  • Enable AI and machine learning initiatives through scalable feature engineering pipelines and production-ready datasets.
  • Contribute reusable frameworks, accelerators, and engineering standards that improve delivery across client engagements.
What You'll Bring
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
  • 8+ years of experience designing and building enterprise-scale data platforms.
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience with Databricks and Apache Spark.
  • Proven experience leading enterprise data engineering projects from architecture through production delivery.
  • Strong expertise in Python, SQL, and Spark for large-scale data processing.
  • Deep understanding of Delta Lake, Lakehouse architecture, and modern data platform design.
  • Experience working with AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform.
  • Strong knowledge of ETL/ELT frameworks, distributed computing, and data modeling.
  • Experience implementing CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure-as-Code.
  • Strong understanding of data governance, security, metadata management, and data quality practices.
  • Experience optimizing distributed data processing workloads for performance and cost.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills with experience working directly with enterprise clients. 
  • Demonstrated ability to mentor engineers and lead technical initiatives
Nice to Have
  • Databricks Certified Professional Data Engineer certification.
  • Experience with Delta Live Tables, MLflow, Unity Catalog, and Databricks SQL.
  • Experience with Kafka, Kinesis, Event Hubs, or other streaming technologies.
  • Hands-on experience with Snowflake, dbt, Airflow, or modern data orchestration tools.
  • Experience with Kubernetes, Docker, and Terraform. 
  • Knowledge of AI/ML data platforms, Feature Stores, or Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures.
  • Previous consulting or professional services experience delivering solutions for enterprise clients.
  • Experience within retail, e-commerce, financial services, logistics, healthcare, or ad-tech environments.
Salary Range
