Senior Data Engineer

At Celigo, we believe integration should empower — not exhaust — innovation. As a modern Integration and Automation Platform (iPaaS), we’re on a mission to simplify how companies integrate, automate, and optimize processes. Powered by game-changing technology like runtime AI and prebuilt, mission-critical integrations, Celigo is redefining how businesses connect their world.

Celigo is looking for a Senior Data Engineer to serve as a hands-on architect and steward of our Snowflake-based data ecosystem. You will own the design and delivery of scalable ELT pipelines, production-grade data models, and the observability frameworks that keep them reliable — translating complex business requirements into well-documented, high-performance data solutions that power analytics, BI, and ML across the organization.

Partnering closely with Analytics, Product, and Engineering, you will enforce data quality standards, contribute to governance practices, and continuously optimize for cost efficiency and data freshness. You'll bring deep Snowflake expertise, a modern dbt-native development mindset, and a fluency with AI-assisted tooling to accelerate your own velocity and raise the bar for the team around you.

• Design, build, and maintain scalable ELT/ETL pipelines and data infrastructure using Snowflake and modern tooling.
• Architect and implement data models — including dimensional, data vault, and medallion/lakehouse patterns — to support analytics, BI, and ML use cases.
• Collaborate with Analytics, Product, and Engineering teams to translate business requirements into reliable, well-documented data solutions.
• Establish and enforce data quality standards, automated validations, and observability frameworks to ensure high reliability across all pipelines.
• Contribute to data governance practices, including documentation, data lineage, access control, and compliance standards.
• Monitor and optimize pipeline performance, compute cost efficiency, and data freshness across the warehouse.
• Evaluate and implement emerging Snowflake features and data tooling to improve engineering velocity and reduce costs.
• Leverage AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude Code, Git Hub Copilot, Cursor, or equivalent) to accelerate pipeline development, code review, and documentation.
• Participate in code reviews, architectural discussions, and cross-functional technical planning sessions.

Skills & Abilities

• Deep expertise in Snowflake architecture, including virtual warehouse configuration, clustering, data sharing, role-based access control, and cost governance.
• Strong command of modern ELT tooling such as dbt, Fivetran, Airflow, or Prefect in a Snowflake-native environment.
• Hands‑on experience integrating AI/ML tools into the development cycle, including AI-assisted coding, automated testing, or LLM‑powered data workflows.
• Proven ability to translate complex business requirements into scalable, well‑documented technical solutions.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate effectively across technical and non‑technical teams.

Education & Experience

• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 5+ years of hands‑on experience in data engineering, specifically building production‑grade pipelines and distributed computing frameworks.
• 3+ years working directly with Snowflake in a production capacity.
• Demonstrated experience in architecting or contributing to at least one full data warehouse migration or rebuild on Snowflake.
• Advanced proficiency in SQL and at least one programming language (Python preferred).
• Experience with version‑controlled, CI/CD‑driven data pipeline development (e.g., dbt + Git Hub Actions or equivalent).
• Familiarity with data…
