About the RoleWe're looking for a Senior Data Engineer to build our data platform from scratch, a rare greenfield opportunity to make the foundational architecture calls yourself. You'll design the pipelines that bring together high-volume payment transactions, marketing analytics, and operational data across AWS and GCP into a unified Lakehouse. This is a hands-on, ownership-heavy role.
What You’ll DoDesign and build ingestion pipelines for high-volume payment data (Stripe, PayPal, Solidgate), marketing analytics (GA4, GTM, Google Ads, Amplitude), and operational databases (MongoDB, PostgreSQL).
Build the data infrastructure for a Lakehouse using AWS and GCP.
Build medallion-layer transformation models (Bronze → Silver → Gold) in dbt or SQLMesh, with payments on Redshift and marketing on BigQuery.
Own orchestration end-to-end in Dagster or Airflow, lineage, sensors, backfills, retries, and alerting across the full asset graph.
Implement infrastructure as code best practices, cost controls etc.
3+ years building production data platforms and pipelines from the ground up.
Deep expertise in Dagster or Airflow, including lineage, backfill, and retry strategies.
Hands-on experience with dbt or SQLMesh, version-controlled transformations.
Strong AWS and GCP skills, with Terraform for infrastructure as code and a cost-conscious (FinOps) approach.
Strong written communication and the ability to work autonomously in a remote, async environment.
Familiarity with data mesh principles, domain ownership, or data product design.
Experience with Apache Spark or Flink for large-scale compaction workloads.
We’re fully remote and distributed across time zones. We default to async, communicate in writing, and trust people to deliver outcomes, not log hours. Decisions are transparent, ownership is clear, and your work is visible from day one.
What We OfferRemote-first: work from anywhere in the world, no relocation required.
Flexible hours: we measure outcomes, not time at a desk.
Unlimited PTO: take the time you need to rest, recharge, and do your best work.
Learning & development budget: courses, books, conferences, certifications, whatever helps you grow.
Performance-based compensation: your impact directly shapes your pay and career trajectory.
A small, senior, collaborative team where your work is visible and your decisions matter.
The chance to build products used by millions of people across 160+ countries.
