Job description

An innovative robotics and automation company is hiring a Senior Data Quality Engineer to ensure the reliability, accuracy, and integrity of data generated across large-scale robotic fulfillment operations. The organization develops intelligent automation solutions that help customers improve warehouse productivity, order accuracy, and operational efficiency through advanced robotics and software platforms. As robotic deployments continue to grow, high-quality data has become critical to product development, operational decision-making, customer success, and system performance.

As a Senior Data Quality Engineer, you will focus on ensuring that data produced by robotic systems is trustworthy, complete, and actionable.
