We're looking for a Data Engineer II to join Splice's Data Engineering team and help scale the platform that powers creator payouts, revenue reporting, and product analytics across Splice's product lines.

Data Engineering builds and maintains the reliable foundation that makes trusted data possible, enabling teams across Splice to work from a governed, consistent source of truth. We are accountable for the warehouse and pipeline foundation; ingestion, transformations, and the standards and quality guardrails that keep data consistent, timely, and usable. This is a mid-level, high-ownership role: engineers here carry features from technical design through delivery, monitoring, and documentation, and participate in our on-call rotation.

The work requires hands-on data engineering experience. Our stack;
Big Query, SQLMesh, Python, Dagster- is distinct from Splice's web engineering stack, and effective contribution requires domain expertise in data pipeline systems, not general software engineering background.

You’ll be joining Splice's Data Engineering team, a small, embedded platform team responsible for the pipelines, transformations, and warehouse infrastructure the rest of the company depends on. Our systems support finance-critical processes (contributor payouts, GAAP revenue reporting), product analytics, and data reliability for customer-facing features like recommendations. We operate with a shared on-call rotation and a strong bias toward observable, well-documented, durable systems.

• Build and maintain data models in SQLMesh, including incremental strategies, testing, and documentation
• Continuously improve and evolve our orchestration and transformation infrastructure as the platform scales
• Modernize legacy pipeline jobs in Python and SQLMesh, reducing technical debt over time

• Participate in on-call rotation; triage and resolve incidents including ETL failures, data unavailability, and core metric breakage
• Build introspectable software: define alert thresholds, emit metrics and logs, produce dashboards, and establish closed-loop escalation paths
• Improve observability across the platform so failures are caught early and resolved quickly

• Extend and maintain pipelines powering creator payouts and GAAP-compliant revenue…
