We are looking for a Data Engineer to join their team. You will work day to day alongside a Senior Data Engineer on a project that brings user event data from Adobe into Google Cloud, building the pipelines and governance layer that allow analysts to trust and report on that data with confidence. This is a mid-level, hands-on engineering role rather than a leadership or architecture-design position, with direction and work allocation provided by the Senior Data Engineer.

What You'll Be Doing

• Collaborating with analysts, project managers and other engineers to help shape and deliver against the project roadmap.
• Picking up and working across a modern cloud data stack, including tools you may not have used before.
• Gaining exposure to adjacent machine learning pipeline work as opportunities arise.

About You

• Solid core data engineering experience, with a strong understanding of SQL
• Experience with, or strong working knowledge of, Google Cloud Platform, Python and Big Query.
• Exposure to DBT is well regarded; experience with Airflow and/or Vertex AI is a plus but not essential, as ongoing tool exposure is part of the role.
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across stakeholders of varying technical backgrounds, from engineers to analysts to project managers.
• An interest in, and comfort with, working alongside AI tools as part of day-to-day delivery.

Why Apply

• Work on data at real scale, with a business that holds one of the largest customer data sets in the country.
• Broaden your experience beyond core engineering, with visibility into machine learning model pipelines and related projects.
• Join a well-resourced team, with strong support from a Senior Data Engineer.
