ABOUT THE ROLE:
As a Senior Data Engineer / Data Ops, you will be responsible for all engineering tasks related to the data infrastructure, data ingestion and DWH pipelines. You will own our data ingestion workflows (currently based on a Kafka stream) and will make sure that the data from our PostgresDB instances with a very high amount of data is ingested live into BigQuery. Besides, you will manage our overall data platform infrastructure, recommend improvement and make sure to always follow best practices. Finally, you will also of course be involved in the Data Engineering pipelines, assisting in the modelling of various data sources helping literally all departments within the company making better decisions.
ONCE YOU ARE HERE YOU WILL:

* Write DWH pipelines and improve our overall DWH code to apply best practices and bring more efficiency.

* You have experience with general infrastructure / DevOps management technologies: ArgoCD, Kubernetes, Docker, Github, Postgres, GCP etc..
* You always thrive for applying data engineering best practices: consistency checks, testing data reliability, monitoring on top of ingestion pipelines, no double business logic in the code.
