Improve reliability, observability, security, and developer experience for Spark/Databricks processing. Develop internal libraries and tooling (Go/Python), collaborate with cross-functional teams, and help shape long-term data platform and AI-ready infrastructure.

Design, build, and operate large-scale Spark/PySpark data pipelines and the enterprise data platform. Implement data integrations, transformations (Python/SQL), monitoring, and data quality. Build MCP servers and AI-enabled tooling, optimize performance, mentor engineers, and lead cross-functional data projects to enable analytics and automation.

The Senior Data Platform Engineer at 1Password will design, build, and maintain data systems and streaming architectures, ensuring data quality and governance for real-time access.

Build and maintain scalable, reliable ML data platform systems to support dataset generation, model training, analytics, monitoring, and large-scale inference. Collaborate with ML, software, and infrastructure engineers to design cost-efficient data lake and training infrastructure using vendor and open-source tools to enable next-generation ML models.

Design, build, and operate production ML systems that generate trusted signals for ranking, retrieval, recommendations, propensity/churn/LTV, and next-best-action decisioning. Define signal/data contracts, own feature and candidate generation through serving, experimentation, monitoring, and feedback loops, and evaluate long-term business impact, trust, fairness, and compliance. Partner across product, data, modeling, risk, and compliance and apply AI/agents to accelerate engineering and operations.

Design and maintain data architecture and pipelines to support compliance and risk teams. Build and optimize data models, standardize metrics, and create data dictionaries. Implement data quality, lineage monitoring, AI-driven agents for false-positive reduction and automation, and participate in on-call rotations to ensure SLAs are met.

Design, build, and scale real-time and batch data infrastructure and pipelines (Kafka, Databricks, Snowflake) to power analytics, reporting, and AI-powered data experiences. Drive data modeling, governance, observability, and best practices while partnering with cross-functional teams and mentoring engineers.

Lead end-to-end personalization data science initiatives: design and deploy machine learning and statistical models into production, optimize recommendations and content layouts, partner with engineering/product/analytics, monitor performance, and mentor junior scientists.

Join a talent network connecting data engineers with VC-backed startups. Build scalable batch and real-time pipelines, data models, warehouses/lakehouses, ensure data quality, support ML pipelines, integrate diverse data sources, and define data architecture and governance.

The Data Engineer will assist clients with SAP security design, implement SAP security, develop authorization profiles, and conduct security reviews.

Ensure health, stability, and performance of production data platform: respond to incidents, monitor and alert, manage pipelines and APIs, enforce data validation and quality checks, optimize processing performance, collaborate on AWS infrastructure, maintain runbooks/documentation, and support downstream data consumers across multiple business data sources.

Lead design and optimization of data models and pipelines for compliance and risk; standardize metrics and documentation; build data quality, lineage, and monitoring (including AI agents for automation); manage ETL scheduling, on-call pipeline support, and collaborate with product and non-technical partners to translate business needs into automated, production-ready data solutions.

Design, build, and operate production ML signal systems—ranking, retrieval, recommendations, propensity, and next-best-action—covering feature/candidate generation, serving, experimentation, monitoring, and feedback. Define signal contracts (freshness, provenance, confidence), evaluate long-term impact (trust, fairness, compliance), and partner across product, data, and risk teams to deliver reusable customer-intelligence capabilities.

Design, build, and scale Snowflake ingestion pipelines and ML/LLM systems. Create agentic tooling to generate, test, and maintain pipelines. Collaborate with analysts, data scientists, and product teams to deliver reliable, high-performance data infrastructure and operationalize models for an AI-first e-commerce platform.

Build and operate scalable data ingestion, transformation, and connector frameworks; design and maintain a knowledge-graph-based data fabric; normalize and vectorize enterprise data for LLM/AI workflows; implement governance, lineage, access controls, and secure APIs to serve ML/agent pipelines.

Lead end-to-end data and ML pipelines for onboarding and fraud decisions: ingest streaming and batch sources, build feature platform and entity resolution, productionize ML models, enforce PII/data governance, and set technical direction while mentoring engineers and ensuring low-latency, reliable serving.

Design, build, and maintain scalable data ingestion pipelines, databases and data lakes for credit and lending datasets. Ensure accurate data mappings, monitoring and alerting, translate stakeholder requirements into analytical data flows, and integrate APIs to deliver reliable, high-quality data products.

As a Data Analyst, you will analyze user behavior, create interactive dashboards, and collaborate with teams to provide actionable insights for product improvement.

The Guidewire Data Engineer will design schemas in Snowflake, develop ETL processes, optimize SQL queries, and integrate Guidewire with data platforms.

Lead design and operation of Block's real-time, event-driven data systems. Build and run high-throughput streaming pipelines, turn Kafka event streams into low-latency data products, improve reliability and observability, mentor engineers, and define platform architecture and standards for projections, third-party data proxy, and graph data capabilities.

Design and lead enterprise data architecture for agentic AI, including hybrid lakehouse and graph/vector integrations. Define schemas and knowledge graphs, ensure database performance and governance across Snowflake/Kinetica/BigQuery, establish ETL/ELT and CDC/streaming strategies, and act as technical client lead for architecture, security, and performance benchmarks.

Lead design and implementation of a federated Lakehouse data platform, unify data silos, define governance/observability, enable secure AI/ML (RAG/vector readiness), mentor architects/engineers, and present roadmaps to executives.
