Job description
- Own a scoped domain of dbt models: design, build, test, ship, and monitor them, with a clear point of view on how they should be structured
- Turn ambiguous asks from Marketing and Product into scoped work, and talk openly about tradeoffs when the ask and the timeline don’t fit together
- Write the design doc for the features you own and break the work into pieces teammates can pick up
- Add monitoring and alerting to your models so your team catches problems before stakeholders do
- Take your turn on our support rotation, debug what breaks, and prevent the repeat
- Leave behind runbooks, schema docs, and diagrams that make your work easy for the next person to own
- Coach engineers earlier in their careers on the team, in code review and day to day, * Marketing, growth, or lifecycle data: events, attribution, experimentation, or tools like Braze, Iterable, or Segment
- Dagster, Airflow, or another modern orchestrator
- CI/CD for data, data governance, or cost-conscious warehouse design
- Supporting ML workflows, like building features or watching model inputs
- Making warehouse data usable by AI tooling; semantic layers, data contracts, or documentation that agents and humans can both read
