Senior Data Engineer | GCP, BigQuery & Data PlatformI’m recruiting for a growing AdTech company looking for a Senior Data Engineer to take real ownership of its analytical data platform. This is not a role where you inherit a perfectly organized warehouse and spend your time maintaining pipelines. You’ll help define the architecture across the entire data lifecycle — from source ingestion and durable storage through BigQuery, data marts and business intelligence — while acting as the senior technical authority for how the platform evolves.

What you’ll be doing:

Own and evolve a production GCP / BigQuery data platform
Design scalable data models, warehouses and governed data marts
Build production pipelines using Python, Apache Beam, Dataflow, Airflow and Cloud Composer
Solve hard data problems around retries, idempotency, schema evolution, backfills and late or duplicate events
Define trusted metrics used across product, finance and leadership
Improve reliability, governance, security and cost efficiency across the data platform
Turn ambiguous business needs into a practical technical roadmap
Help shape the architecture for the company’s future data organization
What they’re looking for:
Deep production experience with BigQuery and GCPStrong hands-on Python and advanced SQLProduction experience with Apache Beam / Dataflow
Strong Airflow / Cloud Composer experience
Experience designing or materially rearchitecting cloud data warehouses and data lakes
Strong understanding of data modeling, reliability and governance
A track record of independently owning complex data-platform initiatives
Ability to work across technical and non-technical teams and drive decisions without needing a large platform organization around you

Experience in AdTech, programmatic advertising or retail media is highly valuable, but it is not a hard requirement. Strong engineers from other high-volume event environments will also be considered. Experience with Superset, dbt/Dataform, Terraform, CI/CD and data governance is also a plus. This is a great fit for someone who wants to be the person designing the data platform rather than simply consuming it — with real influence over architecture, standards and the roadmap. NYC Hybrid or US Remote$160K–$190K base + equity If you’ve built or rearchitected a serious GCP / BigQuery data platform and want broader architectural ownership, please apply.
