Senior Data Engineer (Pipelines & Architecture)

• Take the streaming pipeline from design to production, then operate it at roughly 5 TB/day.
• Move usage aggregation off the legacy database onto the new streaming path, while everything downstream, invoices, dashboards, reports, keeps working through the migration.
• Design the storage layer that decides what the system costs, how events are laid out, partitioned, retained, and expired.
• Make ingestion correct under failure: replays, duplicates, out-of-order arrivals, and late data that shows up after a window has already closed.
• Own the aggregation layer that customer-facing usage views and internal reporting read from, the models, the metric definitions, and the freshness guarantees behind them.
• Keep performance predictable at both ends of the system, the ingest firehose and the queries analysts run against it, as traffic grows.
• Automate what is currently manual: schema changes tracked in code, backfills and reconciliation as repeatable jobs, no ad-hoc surgery on production data.
• Instrument the platform for freshness, lag, ingest errors, and cost, with alerts that fire before anyone notices a wrong number on a dashboard.
• Participate in on-call and incident response for the data platform, and drive the follow-ups that keep the same failure from recurring.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (backend, proxy infrastructure, product) so the events we emit answer the questions the business actually asks.

• 7+ years building and operating production data pipelines.
• Hands-on ClickHouse experience: engine selection (ReplacingMergeTree and friends), partitioning, materialized views, and query tuning across billions of rows.
• Strong PostgreSQL: partitioning, indexing, bulk-insert performance, and a clear view of where it stops being the right tool.
• Deep SQL and analytical data modeling, turning raw events into aggregates other people can trust without asking you first.
• Demonstrated ownership, you've been the person accountable for a pipeline that was still correct the morning after it broke.
• Active user of agentic coding tools.
• Strong communication skills, you write clearly, escalate early, and make your reasoning visible in an async team.
• Self-directed and comfortable in a fast-paced startup environment where the scope is yours to define.

Bonus Points

• Kafka, or a comparable streaming platform, run in production, partitioning, consumer groups, and delivery guarantees.
• Go, our pipeline services are written in it, and you'd be writing and debugging them.
• Experience with high-volume telemetry or observability data (multi-TB/day ingest).
• Hands-on with Vector or comparable collectors (Fluent Bit, OpenTelemetry Collector, Logstash).
• Experience with usage-based metering or billing pipelines, including reconciliation and late-data handling.
• Workflow orchestration for backfills and scheduled jobs (Temporal, Airflow, Dagster).
• BI and transformation tooling, Metabase, Grafana, dbt or equivalent.
• AWS experience (RDS, Lambda, SQS, S3/Parquet, EC2) and Terraform.
• Experience self-hosting and operating ClickHouse or Kafka clusters rather than consuming them as a service.
