  • Experience with software development practices like version control, CI / CD, or dbt testing strategies.
  • Strong proficiency in SQL and Python, with bonus points for TypeScript (or similar) experience.
  • Comfort working with version control, CI / CD systems, and cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS, GCP, Terraform).
  • Comfortable navigating ambiguity and working closely with business stakeholders to understand their data needs.

  • Compensation

    $160,000 - $180,000 a year. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors including candidate location, experience and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed above. Total compensation package includes stock options, benefits and additional perks.
