Job description

We are looking for a Senior Data Engineer to join our growing data platform team. You will own the design, build, and reliability of our cloud-native data lakehouse — from raw ingestion through to analytics-ready Gold tables. You will work closely with data analysts, analytics engineers, and product stakeholders to deliver trusted data at speed, while championing data quality and observability as first-class concerns.

This role sits at the intersection of data engineering and platform engineering — you will be expected to think in architectures, not just pipelines.


What You Will Do

Data Platform & Pipeline Engineering

▸ Design, build, and maintain scalable ETL/ELT pipelines using Azure Data Factory (ADF) and Apache Airflow, processing structured and semi-structured data across the Medallion architecture (Bronze → Silver → Gold).

▸ Implement incremental load patterns, change data capture (CDC), and event-driven ingestion to ensure data freshness across the platform.

▸ Build and optimise Snowflake data warehouse objects — tables, views, dynamic tables, streams, tasks, and stored procedures — for performance and cost efficiency.

▸ Develop modular, tested dbt models aligned to each Medallion layer, enforcing consistent naming conventions, documentation, and lineage across all transformations.


Data Quality & Observability

▸ Embed automated data validation at every Medallion layer using Elementary (dbt's observability layer), ensuring anomaly detection, freshness checks, and schema drift alerts are in place before data reaches consumers.

▸ Define and enforce data contracts between producers and consumers — row count checks, null rate thresholds, referential integrity, and value domain validation.

▸ Build and maintain data quality dashboards to give engineering and business stakeholders real-time confidence in platform health.


Azure Cloud Infrastructure

▸ Manage and optimise Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 (ADLS) — folder structures, lifecycle policies, access tiers, and partition strategies.

▸ Build and maintain Azure Functions and Azure Logic Apps for lightweight event-driven processing, orchestration triggers, and operational automation.

▸ Manage secrets, credentials, and environment-specific configuration securely using Azure Key Vault — no hardcoded credentials in pipelines or code.

▸ Contribute to infrastructure-as-code practices for provisioning Azure data services (Terraform or Bicep preferred).


Collaboration & Delivery

▸ Translate ambiguous business requirements into well-defined data models and pipeline designs, working with analysts and stakeholders to validate assumptions before build.

▸ Participate in code reviews, enforce standards, and mentor junior engineers on data engineering best practices.

▸ Support CI/CD adoption for pipeline and dbt model deployment across Dev / Test / Prod environments.


What We Are Looking For

Must-Have

▸ Snowflake: Snowflake

– Advanced SQL — window functions, CTEs, recursive queries, query profiling

– Snowflake-native features: streams, tasks, snowpipe, dynamic tables, row-level security

– Virtual warehouse tuning and credit cost optimisation

▸ dbt + Elementary: dbt + Elementary

– Writing, testing, and documenting production dbt models

– Elementary integration for data observability and anomaly detection

– dbt incremental strategies, snapshots, and semantic layer

▸ Azure Cloud: Azure Cloud

– Azure Data Factory — pipeline authoring, triggers, parameterisation, linked services

– ADLS Gen2 — zone/folder design, lifecycle management, Parquet/Delta partitioning

– Azure Key Vault — secret management, managed identities

– Azure Functions / Logic Apps — event-driven triggers and lightweight automation

▸ Airflow: Airflow

– DAG authoring, task dependencies, XCom, sensors, and connection management

– Airflow deployment and monitoring in cloud-hosted environments

▸ Python: Python

– Data pipeline scripting, PySpark basics, REST API integration

– Unit testing pipeline logic and transformation functions

▸ Data Quality & Medallion Architecture: Medallion Architecture:

– Hands-on experience implementing Bronze / Silver / Gold Medallion architecture

– Data validation checks at each layer — not just at the final Gold layer

– Schema evolution handling and SCD Type 2 dimension management

▸ 4+ years of professional data engineering experience with at least 2 years on Azure cloud data platforms.


Nice-to-Have

▸ Exposure to Snowflake Cortex, dbt Semantic Layer, or Boomi Data Hub for AI-assisted data enrichment within pipeline layers.

▸ Experience integrating LLM-based quality checks or AI-assisted anomaly detection into data workflows.

▸ Familiarity with Microsoft Fabric and OneLake as a complementary or future-state platform.

▸ Knowledge of data mesh or data product thinking and how it maps to Medallion layer ownership.

▸ Experience with Terraform or Bicep for Azure infrastructure provisioning.

How to prepare and behave

This is editorial guidance, not information from the employer.

Know your rights as a candidate and an employee:

The city

The job is in Miami, FL. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.

How Miami compares. Among the 120 largest places in Florida, Miami is #2 by population, #119 for homeownership (#1 = highest), #98 for household income (#1 = highest), #49 for remote work (#1 = most). Its county, Miami-Dade County, is #1 of 67 counties for average pay ($77,609).

The place in numbers

Miami has 459,745 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 2.1% of the population of Florida. It covers 36 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 12,772 people per square mile. The median age is 39.3, 8% younger than the state median (39.3 against 42.6).

Housing

The median gross rent is $1,758 a month (rent plus utilities), 5% above the state median ($1,758 against $1,669). Over a year that is 33.8% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so rent here is above that line for the typical household. The median home value is $518,100, which is 8.3 times the median household income ($62,462); a ratio above 5 usually means buying is out of reach without savings or a second income. 30.8% of households own their home, 54% below the state average (30.8% against 67.6%). A low ownership share points to a rental-heavy market with more apartments and shorter stays.

Work and pay

The Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach, FL metropolitan area has 2,819,940 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $48,640 a year, 5% below the national median ($48,640 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are office and administrative support (374,810 jobs, median $46,060); sales and related (304,600 jobs, median $38,380); food preparation and serving related (279,520 jobs, median $35,280). The area is most specialised in legal (1.9 times) and protective service (1.4 times), where the share of workers is well above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($111,140) and computer and mathematical ($101,540). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of Miami-Dade County was 1.9%. 67.0% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in Miami-Dade County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.

Getting around

Among workers, 59.3% drive alone, 7.0% use public transit, 5.2% walk, 16.0% work from home. 16.6% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 9% below the state average (16.6% against 18.1%).

People and education

37.4% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 10% above the state share (37.4% against 34.1%). 57.7% of residents were born outside the United States, 164% above the state share (57.7% against 21.9%). The poverty rate is 19.4%, 54% above the state rate (19.4% against 12.6%).

Climate

The warmest month is Aug, averaging 84°F (29.0°C), and the coolest is Jan at 70°F (21.2°C). About 1,327 mm (52 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Jun is the wettest month (191 mm) and Jan the driest (44 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.

Nearby cities to compare

Closest cities in this guide: Miami Beach (4 miles, rent 4% higher); Coral Gables (7 miles, rent 35% higher); Fountainebleau (9 miles, rent 19% higher); Hialeah (9 miles, rent 4% lower). Rent differences are against Miami; use the Compare tab to put any two cities side by side.
