The posting

Discord has a highly engaged community of millions of daily active users who use the platform for many different reasons, but there’s one thing that nearly everyone does: play video games. Discord plays a uniquely important role in the future of gaming, and we are focused on making it easier and more fun for people to hang out before, during, and after playing games.

This position is US based only.

Discord is looking for Senior Data Engineers to join our world class Data team. Data Engineers at Discord work with data science, machine learning, and engineering teams to build the foundational datasets behind our tools, analyses, and models. The data you build directly shapes how we find opportunities, measure success, and make product and business decisions. We are hiring for multiple verticals including Gaming Intelligence and GRC. If this sounds exciting to you and you’re passionate about data, impact, and working on an amazing team, read on!

What you will be doing:

  • Own the data models and pipelines for a functional area end to end, from design through implementation and adoption
  • Build and maintain foundational datasets that power analytics, modeling, experimentation, and the dashboards and reports teams rely on
  • Design data architectures for massive, complex data, balancing usability, performance, and cost
  • Partner with data science, ML, and engineering teams to improve the coverage, accuracy, and reliability of instrumentation
  • Build data quality audits at scale, with alerting and anomaly detection where needed
  • Find and act on opportunities to improve pipeline and dashboard performance and cost
  • Drive adoption of your work through documentation and enablement, and share what you learn with teammates

What you should have

  • 4+ years of experience building and operating production data pipelines with high volumes of consumer data
  • Strong data modeling skills across structured and unstructured sources
  • Proficiency in SQL and Python, with a focus on correct, performant, maintainable code
  • Experience implementing and monitoring data quality checks on very large datasets (e.g. billions of rows)
  • A track record of owning complex projects end to end: breaking them into phases and balancing speed, usability, and risk
  • Clear communication and stakeholder management skills, and comfort working on problems that are ambiguous and change quickly
  • A collaborative approach and natural curiosity

Bonus Points:

  • Passion for Discord or online communities
  • Experience with BigQuery, Airflow, and dbt, or similar tools
  • Experience with Looker, Tableau, or similar dashboarding tools
  • Experience designing data architecture for experimentation, creating frameworks that scale instead of one-off solutions
  • Experience mentoring other engineers or setting data engineering standards for a team

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $220,500 to $245,000 + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role and level. Within the range, individual pay is determined by additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. Please note that the compensation details listed in US role postings reflect the base salary only, and do not include equity, or benefits.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
