Senior Staff Software Engineer, Semantic Data Platforms

As a Senior Staff Software Engineer, you will lead the design and engineering of large-scale semantic data models that represent the core of our business. You’ll architect platforms that enforce data standardization, business logic, and semantic alignment—delivering high-performance, versioned, and auditable data assets used across analytics, AI/ML, APIs, and operational systems. This role is for a technical leader who thrives at enterprise scale, partners deeply with product and business stakeholders, and sets the standard for how data is modeled, governed, and trusted across the organization.

Compensation: $170,000–$240,000 base salary per year, depending on experience.

Key Duties

Architect semantic data foundations

  • Design and implement platform foundations for semantic data modeling, including reusable modeling patterns, data versioning, and temporal semantics
  • Translate complex business definitions into scalable, interpretable, and trustworthy data entities used across analytics, AI/ML, APIs, and operational workflows
  • Own modeling for high-volume, high-complexity domains such as customers, fleets, transactions, and providers at enterprise scale

Ensure consistency, quality, and evolution

  • Drive rigorous enforcement of data validation, referential integrity, and schema evolution
  • Establish semantic consistency across domains while enabling safe, backward-compatible change
  • Define best practices for building modular, testable, and maintainable pipelines, and lead their adoption across teams

Lead platform and cross-functional collaboration

  • Partner closely with business, product, analytics, and engineering teams to ensure semantic models reflect how data is actually understood and used
  • Guide platform evolution in collaboration with Control Plane, Governance, and Data Ops teams
  • Embed observability, lineage, traceability, and auditability into data platforms by design
Experience You’ll Bring
  • 10+ years of experience in software or data engineering, with a focus on large-scale, distributed systems
  • Deep expertise in data architecture and semantic modeling, including entity-centric, reusable models (e.g., Customer 360, Provider 360)
  • Strong understanding of data structures, transformation patterns, temporal modeling, and business logic abstraction
  • Proven ability to build scalable, reliable systems using modern architectural patterns
  • Experience with data lifecycle management, including versioning, auditability, and reproducibility of derived data assets
  • Excellent communication skills and a track record of cross-functional technical leadership
  • Passion for building platforms that promote trust, consistency, and scalability in enterprise data usage
