If such a workplace intrigues you, we hope you’ll join us.

About the role:

Do you love working with multi-disciplinary teams and stakeholders across a wide range of functions to implement and solve data engineering challenges? Are you equally skilled at delivering simple solutions to complex problems and consistently delivering on time?

We are looking for a skilled and detail-oriented Data Engineer to join our growing data team. In this role, you will be responsible for building and maintaining the data pipelines, models, and infrastructure that deliver reliable, high-quality data to teams across the organization. You will work closely with business stakeholders to ensure our data warehouse is accurate, well-documented, and scalable as the business grows.

What you'll be doing:

• Collaborate with high-visibility teams and their stakeholders to support critical data engineering initiatives
• Build and maintain dbt models across staging, mart, and metrics layers in the data warehouse, supporting analytics, reporting, and BI tools used across the business
• Work closely with cross-functional teams to define and enforce data quality standards, best practices, and data governance policies
• Support data consumers by improving data discoverability, maintaining documentation, and helping teams understand how to find and use the data they need
• Monitor data pipeline health, investigate data quality issues, assess their impact, and validate fixes in collaboration with business stakeholders
• Develop and maintain data and automation scripts to streamline data testing processes and improve efficiency
• Participate in data migration projects, ensuring data quality and integrity during the migration process
• Stay up to date with industry trends, advancements in data quality tools, and emerging technologies related to data engineering
• Contribute to process improvements, documentation, and knowledge sharing within the data team
• Help foster a team culture rooted in passion, curiosity, and continuous improvement
• Bring energy, positivity, a critical eye, unimpeachable integrity, a team-first attitude, and a desire to contribute to building something great, together

Who you are:

• You have a solid understanding of data modeling principles - you can design staging, fact, and dimension tables that are clean, consistent, and easy for downstream consumers to use
• Strong communication skills - you can explain technical data concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders and collaborate effectively with business teams
• Elite critical thinking and problem solving and impeccable judgment
• Legitimately curious and passionate about finding the “right answer” with a detail-oriented mindset and a “healthy sense of paranoia” about quality
• Highly organized, disciplined and driven, with the ability to manage competing priorities while meeting deadlines
• A bias toward documentation and data quality - you treat well-documented, tested models as a baseline expectation, not an afterthought
• The ability to follow and manage best practices and standards for data quality, scalability, reliability, and reusability
• A good working knowledge of agile delivery techniques
• Balanced sense of pride & humility with the ability to thrive in a collaborative environment and bring energy and enthusiasm to team culture
• University degree in Engineering, Math, or Computer Science
• 2+ years of full-time and/or internship/PEY experience as a Data Engineer or Data Analyst
• Strong hands-on SQL and ideally dbt experience - you are comfortable building and refactoring layered data models, writing macros, and working with incremental materializations
• Python proficiency for pipeline development, data transformation, and scripting automation tasks
• Experience with Apache Airflow - being comfortable building and debugging DAGs, managing task dependencies, and handling failures gracefully in a production environment would be highly valued
• Familiarity with AWS services, particularly Redshift and Glue, and comfort working in a cloud data warehouse environment would be highly valued
• Experience working in indirect (B2B2C) and/or consumer lending would be a strong asset
• Capable of having fun while doing all of the above; we’re serious about this
