    About the Role

    Join a data infrastructure and analytics team building a platform that turns information from multiple sources into reliable, up-to-date company intelligence. You will own the platform end to end, from architecture and ingestion to production operations, enabling trusted data for downstream products.

    What You'll Do

    • Design and build a multi-source data platform for concurrent ingestion, event-driven processing, and orchestrated batch workflows.
    • Ingest data from provider APIs, webhooks, files, and web scraping with rate limits and robust failure handling.
    • Orchestrate scheduled workflows and historical backfills using tools such as Airflow, Dagster, or Prefect.
    • Build event-driven systems with messaging or task queues, including retries, dead-letter queues, and controlled replay.
    • Preserve original payloads in Google Cloud Storage and transform data with dbt into raw, standardized, and curated layers.
    • Implement idempotent upserts, data contracts, validation, pipeline tests, and monitoring for freshness and failures.
    • Design and optimize PostgreSQL schemas and loading patterns, and integrate enrichment and LLM-based structured extraction.

    What We're Looking For

    • At least 5 years building and operating production data platforms, integrating multiple sources from architecture through deployment and ongoing operations.
    • Production experience with workflow orchestration, including dependencies, retries, and failure recovery; Airflow experience is preferred.
    • Hands-on production experience with dbt and Google Cloud Platform.
    • Strong Python skills, including asynchronous HTTP and concurrent processing with asyncio, aiohttp, or HTTPX.
    • Strong SQL and PostgreSQL skills, including data modeling, query optimization, and incremental loading.
    • Experience with event-driven systems, messaging or task queues, and asynchronous failure recovery.
    • Experience with data contracts, raw and curated storage, retention policies, automated validation, pipeline testing, and monitoring.
    • Experience building platforms or substantial pipelines from scratch is valuable. Web scraping, entity resolution, LLM-based extraction, BigQuery, and Dataform experience are also useful.
