We are looking for a Senior Data Engineer to build and extend the framework and tooling that our telemetry and analytics run on: collection, transformation, aggregation, access and visualization. The aim is for product managers, project managers and engineers to answer most of their own analytics and research questions without going through a specialist.

Over the past three years we have standardized how telemetry and product data are collected, made that data available for analysis in UI tools (Kibana, Tableau), and taught our product and project managers to use those tools and analyze data themselves. You will also take on the analyses that self-service cannot reach: how our services operate, perform and stay stable, and how our features are actually used.

You will own the tools and pipelines that collect and expose data across the department, and you will manage two data engineers working on data collection, processing and analytics. Responsibilities Design, build and evolve the framework and tooling for collecting, transforming and aggregating telemetry and product data, and adjust it as products and services change Build self-service capability: data models, aggregations, dashboards and tooling that let non-specialists do their own analysis and research Process and model Open Telemetry data (traces, metrics and logs) at scale Manage two data engineers: set technical direction, review designs and grow the team's capability Work with frontend and backend development teams to instrument their systems and report telemetry and analytics data consistently Take on the analyses that go beyond self-service: how services operate, perform and remain stable, and how features are used Own data access and quality: make the right data available to the right people, in a form they can trust Enable colleagues through documentation, dashboard patterns and hands-on support Present findings using clear data visualization Requirements and skills 5+ years of experience building data platforms, telemetry pipelines or analytics tooling Strong programming skills in both Java and Python Deep experience with the ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana): index and mapping design, ingest pipelines, aggregations and Kibana dashboards
