Original job description

About the Role As a Staff Data Engineer, on the Distribution Center (DC) Solutions team, you’ll play a technical lead role in building and scaling the data integrations needed to support our suite of DC products. You will design and implement ETLs that reliably process large volumes of customer-provided data and build tools/improve the platform to make customer integrations faster, more accurate, and more scalable. Your work will have a direct and visible impact on our ability to onboard customers more easily and quickly and power our machine learning grocery solution. What You’ll Do Engineering & Data Pipelines: Design, build, and optimize robust ETLs using PySpark and DBT to process large-scale customer datasets while developing tools and frameworks to streamline data integrations and improve scalability. Technical Leadership & Strategy: Define the technical vision for DC data architecture, mentor engineers, and manage external contractors to ensure the team delivers high-quality, practical solutions for current and future needs. Cross-functional Collaboration: Partner with product, engineering, and applied science teams to scope work and deliver data solutions that address real-world challenges in customer data quality and product feature requirements. What Makes You a Great Fit We encourage all highly-qualified candidates to apply, even if they don’t meet every listed qualification. Significant experience designing and maintaining ETLs that process large-scale datasets. Proficiency with Python, PySpark, SQL, and experience working on platforms/tools like Databricks, Snowflake, or DBT. 2+ years experience in a technical lead role (e.g. Tech Lead or Engineering Manager), with a willingness to mentor and help others grow. Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work with ambiguous or incomplete requirements to deliver concrete, impactful solutions. A focus on practical outcomes - you're skilled at balancing technical rigor with the need to get things done. Experience working directly with complex, unclean datasets and finding innovative ways to process and analyze them. A knack for identifying areas where tooling or automation can simplify workflows and reduce manual effort. Excellent communication skills - you’re able to explain your ideas clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. We’re looking for someone who thrives on tackling complex data problems and takes pride in building systems that work seamlessly at scale. If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!
