zego - Data Engineer
Requirements
• Experience building and operating ETL/ELT pipelines. • Hands-on experience with modern data stacks — our tech includes Python, SQL, Snowflake, Apache Iceberg, AWS S3, PostgresDB, Airflow, dbt, and Apache Spark, deployed via AWS, Docker, and Terraform (experience with some of these or similar technologies is expected). • Collaboration: Ability to work effectively with teammates and stakeholders. • Problem-Solving: Pragmatic approach to balancing quality with delivery needs. • You work AI-first. You will use AI daily here, and we mean daily. You do not need to arrive an expert, but you do need to arrive curious, experiment fast, and take ownership of getting good quickly. People who wait to be trained will find this uncomfortable. • Familiarity with Data Mesh or Lakehouse architectures. • Familiarity with Kubernetes, Docker, and real-time streaming technologies (e.g. Kafka, Kinesis). • Exposure to ML engineering pipelines or MLOps frameworks. • THE ZEGO WAYS OF WORKING 🏡 • Teams work better with time to collaborate and space to get things done. We call it Zego Hybrid: some of us are in our office (central London or Halifax) weekly, others monthly or quarterly. It's about finding the balance between face time and focus that produces great work and a healthy life around it. • We also make a point of getting everyone in the same room. Teams come together every quarter, and once a year the whole company does, properly. It's a serious investment and consistently one of the best parts of the year. • Here is what the last one looked like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKOYDx6AMxQ.
