Job description

As an Expert Data Engineer in AdInsights, you are a deep technical expert within the team. You take on the most complex data engineering challenges behind advertiser insights and help the team make strong choices in data modelling, pipeline design, quality, observability and scalability.

  • Align with adjacent teams on shared datasets, metric definitions, data contracts and dependencies
  • Bring data engineering knowledge to other engineers and help raise the craft level of the AdInsights team
  • Act as a technical sparring partner for engineers, analysts and product managers when decisions depend on data engineering depth
  • Translate relevant data engineering practices and learnings into practical improvements for AdInsights
  • Take ownership of difficult technical problems while helping others make better technical decisions independently
