About the role

  • Senior Data Engineer developing data pipelines and infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform for WorkWhile's staffing marketplace. Collaborating with Data Science and Engineering teams to enhance data quality and availability.

  • Build and optimize data pipelines that ingest, transform, and model data from PostgreSQL, Amplitude, and external sources into BigQuery
  • Own BigQuery data warehouse architecture: dataset organization, table design, partitioning, clustering, and query performance optimization
  • Work to improve Ops ML platform capabilities and processes, partnering with the Data Science team to support efficient and reliable ML training and pipelines
  • Work on reverse ETL workflows and API integrations that push model predictions back into production systems
  • Support analytics by ensuring clean, performant datasets are available for self-serve reporting
  • Collaborate with Engineering on Terraform-managed GCP infrastructure
  • Optimize Cloud Tasks and Cloud Scheduler configurations for data refresh jobs and materialized view maintenance

Requirements

  • Expertise in SQL, with the ability to write and optimize complex analytical queries across BigQuery and PostgreSQL
  • Proficiency building data pipelines in Python
  • Experience maintaining data warehouses on BigQuery, Snowflake, or Redshift
  • Hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform services
  • Familiarity with ML workflows and the ability to collaborate with Data Scientists on feature engineering, training pipelines, and model serving

  • Proficiency with data quality frameworks, monitoring, and observability tooling
  • Strong collaboration skills and a track record of partnering effectively with Data Science and Product Engineering teams
  • Passion for building reliable, well-tested data systems - you care about code quality (linting, type checking, CI) as much as pipeline uptime.

Benefits
