Responsibilities

  • Design and own a multi-source data platform for concurrent ingestion, event-driven processing, and orchestrated batch workflows.
  • Build resilient ingestion from provider APIs, webhooks, files, and web scraping with rate limiting and failure handling.
  • Orchestrate scheduled workflows and historical backfills with retries and recovery.
  • Develop event-driven processing with messaging or task queues, dead-letter queues, and controlled replay.
  • Store source payloads in Google Cloud Storage and transform them with dbt into raw, standardized, and curated layers.
  • Implement idempotent upserts, data contracts, automated validation, pipeline testing, and monitoring for freshness and failures.
  • Design and optimize PostgreSQL schemas and loading patterns.
  • Integrate data enrichment and LLM-based structured extraction into the platform.

Requirements

  • At least 5 years of experience building and operating production data platforms that ingest data from multiple sources.
  • Production experience with workflow orchestration, dependencies, retries, and failure recovery; Airflow is preferred, with Dagster, Prefect, Temporal, or comparable tools also relevant.
  • 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, queues, data contracts, raw and curated storage, retention, testing, and monitoring.
  • Experience building a platform or substantial pipelines from scratch is valued.
  • Experience with web scraping, entity resolution, enrichment, LLM-based extraction, or startup and small-team environments is useful.

Benefits

  • Fully remote for candidates based in Europe, including the United Kingdom, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland, and Ukraine.
