Description:

  • As a Data Platform Engineer, you will design, provision, and operate the foundational data infrastructure that powers analytics and reporting across the organization.
  • You will be responsible for everything from spinning up the cloud data warehouse to building the initial ETL pipelines that shape raw data, laying the groundwork for self-service analytics and data-driven decision making.
  • You will architect and spin up production and sandbox data warehouse environments using Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC).
  • You will build and deploy the first wave of ETL pipelines to ingest transactional, event, and third-party data.
  • You will embed data quality tests and SLA tracking into every pipeline and set up dashboards and alerts to proactively detect failures, latency spikes, or data drift.
  • You will establish coding conventions, pipeline templates, and best practices for future data projects and mentor other engineers and analysts on using the data platform.
  • You will work closely with BI/analytics teams to understand reporting needs and collaborate with application engineers to identify new data sources and automate their onboarding.

Requirements:

  • You must have 5+ years of experience in software or data engineering, with hands-on experience provisioning and maintaining cloud data warehouses such as Snowflake, Amazon Redshift, or Google BigQuery.
  • Proficiency with Infrastructure-as-Code tools like Terraform, CloudFormation, or Pulumi is required to automate data platform deployments.
  • Strong SQL skills and experience building ETL pipelines in Python or Java/Scala are necessary.
  • Familiarity with orchestration frameworks (Airflow, Prefect, Dagster) or transformation tools (dbt) is expected.
  • A solid understanding of data modeling patterns (star, snowflake schemas) and best practices for partitioning, clustering, and indexing is essential.
  • Experience implementing data quality checks, monitoring (using tools like Datadog, Prometheus, Monte Carlo), and alerting for pipelines is required.
  • Knowledge of data governance and security, including IAM, encryption at rest/in transit, and PII redaction, is necessary.
  • Excellent communication skills are required to partner with analytics, product, and engineering teams to translate requirements into scalable solutions.
  • Strong documentation skills to define data platform standards, runbooks, and onboarding guides are essential.

Benefits:

  • You will have the opportunity to work remotely from Brazil.
  • You will be part of a leading payments platform that is dedicated to fostering growth and providing exceptional value to clients.
  • The company values transparency, honesty, dependability, partnership, revolutionary boldness, and diversity and inclusion, creating a supportive work environment.
  • You will have the chance to mentor and collaborate with other engineers and analysts, enhancing your professional development.
  • The role offers the potential for career growth within a dynamic and innovative company.
