Position Summary:
Data Engineer - Technology
We are seeking a Data Engineer to help build and modernize our data pipeline architecture. The
immediate mission: support the migration of ETL workloads out of Redshift stored procedures and
legacy SSIS packages into scalable, maintainable pipelines using AWS Glue and S3. The longer-term
vision: help us evolve from batch-oriented processing toward near real-time analytics using stream
processing technologies like Apache Flink and ClickHouse, among others. You will be embedded in a
cross-functional engineering team, working alongside senior engineers to build pipelines and grow your
expertise in modern cloud-native data architecture.
Objectives:
- Build and maintain modern ETL/ELT pipelines using AWS Glue, S3, and related services to help
replace legacy stored procedures and SSIS jobs.
- Develop data transformation workflows that are testable, version-controlled, and observable.
- Help maintain our Redshift data warehouse, including materialized views, query performance,
and cost efficiency.
- Support the evolution from batch ETL to near real-time stream processing, assisting with the
evaluation and implementation of technologies such as Apache Flink, ClickHouse, Kafka, Kinesis,
or equivalent platforms.
- Design pipelines that support both near real-time and batch workloads as the platform
transitions.
- Collaborate with product and analytics teams to help ensure data models support reporting,
AI/ML, and customer-facing features.
- Follow and help refine established patterns and best practices for pipeline development.
- Participate in production support and incident response for data infrastructure.
Requirements:
Education/Experience:
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field. 2-4 years of experience in
data engineering roles.
Skills:
- Working experience with AWS Glue (PySpark/Python), S3, and Redshift.
Docusign Envelope ID: 3DB5DE32-5404-82BD-80A4-A92CE5E89F74
- Hands-on experience migrating or supporting the migration of ETL workloads from legacy tools
(SSIS, stored procedures, or similar) to modern cloud-native pipelines.
- Strong SQL skills with best practices and SQL linting, particularly in Redshift or other
columnar/MPP databases.
- Experience with or strong interest in stream processing frameworks (Flink, Spark Streaming,
Kafka Streams, or similar).
- Familiarity with data pipeline orchestration, monitoring, and error handling patterns.
- Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD concepts as applied to data pipelines.
Desired Skills:
- Experience with Aurora MySQL or other relational databases, and NoSQL such as DynamoDB.
- Hands-on experience with near real-time OLAP engines (ClickHouse, Apache Druid, or similar).
- Exposure to streaming data infrastructure (Kinesis, Kafka, MQTT).
- Familiarity with IoT or utility/metering data.
- Experience with dbt, Airflow, or Step Functions.
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to explain complex data architecture concepts to
technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- A working understanding of software development methodologies (Agile, Scrum, etc.).
- Strong problem-solving abilities and a drive for results.
Location:
- Tallassee, Alabama or Duluth, Georgia; May be required to travel to one of our
manufacturing/customer locations up to 20% of the time when necessary.
