Overview 

We're looking for a Senior Data Platform Engineer to lead the design, implementation, and evolution of our data platform infrastructure. You'll own the end-to-end architecture of our CDC-based ETL pipelines and reporting infrastructure, from change capture at the database level through to analyst-ready datasets and dashboards. This is a technical leadership role - you'll set direction for how data moves through our systems, define standards, and mentor the team on best practices. 

Responsibilities 

• Architect and maintain our real-time and batch data pipelines built on Debezium, Kafka, Flink, and DeltaStream 

• Own the Snowflake data warehouse strategy including schema design, dynamic table definitions, medallion-architecture layering (bronze/silver/gold), and query performance 

• Design and implement infrastructure-as-code for the data platform using Pulumi 

• Build and maintain the reporting layer that powers business intelligence through Sigma 

• Define data quality standards, monitoring, and alerting across the pipeline 

• Collaborate with product and engineering teams to translate business requirements into scalable data models 

• Establish patterns for incremental processing, late-arriving data, and schema evolution 

• Evaluate and introduce new technologies as the platform evolves 

Required Experience 

• 7+ years of experience in data engineering or data platform roles 

• Deep experience with streaming architectures: Kafka, Flink, CDC patterns (Debezium or equivalent) 

• Strong Snowflake expertise: dynamic tables, warehouse optimization, access control, cost management 

• Production experience with infrastructure-as-code (Pulumi, Terraform, or CDK) 

• SQL fluency — you can write, optimize, and debug complex analytical queries 

• Experience designing medallion or multi-layer data architectures 

• Track record of leading technical design decisions and mentoring engineers 

Preferred Experience 

• Experience with DeltaStream or similar managed stream processing platforms 

• Familiarity with Sigma or modern BI tools that push compute to the warehouse 

• Experience with PostgreSQL CDC pipelines specifically 

• Background in financial services, loyalty/rewards, or payments domains 

• Experience operating data platforms on AWS (RDS, Secrets Manager, ECS, Lambda) 

About You 

• You'll operate with significant autonomy in technical decisions within the data platform domain 

• You'll partner closely with application engineers who produce the source data and analysts who consume it 

• You'll balance hands-on implementation with architectural guidance — this is not a purely advisory role
