Senior Data Engineer

The Analytics team is evolving our enterprise capabilities from foundational governance into a robust data platform, safely accelerating strategic AI enablement and delivering high-margin commercial data products. As a Senior Data Engineer, you will be pivotal in optimizing and scaling our foundational Snowflake architecture while aggressively pushing toward agentic engineering and machine learning operations. You will operate as a full-stack generalist within the engineering pod, sharing cross-functional responsibility for pipeline resilience, advanced observability, and the deployment of intelligent semantic models that directly feed our product ecosystem. 

Reports To: Manager of Data Engineering 

• Architect for the Future: Optimize our existing Snowflake architecture, establishing strict environmental isolation and scalable structures that prepare our data for eventual downstream commercialization and product offerings. 

• Drive Agentic Engineering: Leverage tools like Snowflake Cortex, Cursor, and UiPath to automate workflows, build semantic models, and deploy agents that accelerate time-to-value. 

• Establish Data Observability: Implement and manage robust data quality and observability frameworks to ensure pipeline reliability and proactive issue resolution. 

• Operationalize Machine Learning: Design and maintain MLOps pipelines to support the seamless rollout, monitoring, and lifecycle management of ML models directly within Snowflake. 

• Execute Shared Ownership: Partner closely with your peers under the Data Engineering Manager to share responsibilities across pipeline management, MLOps, and architecture, avoiding siloed knowledge and ensuring comprehensive team coverage. 

• Model for Enterprise Utility: Synthesize disparate operational entities into a unified, enterprise-wide semantic model that supports both internal analytics and future data monetization efforts. 

• 5+ years of Data Engineering experience with a deep, specialized focus on Snowflake's advanced features (e.g., RBAC, materialized views, dynamic tables, Snowpipe, stored procedures). 

• Advanced proficiency in SQL and Python, with a strong foundation in applying software engineering best practices to ELT processes. 

• Observability Expertise: Hands-on experience implementing data observability and monitoring platforms (such as DataDog) to manage data quality at scale. 

• AI & MLOps Exposur
