Your role will be pivotal in establishing engineering best practices, balancing engineering priorities with business needs, and identifying innovative approaches to deliver outstanding value to our users. Your engineering knowledge will be applied by designing top-notch architectures, offering insightful feedback on technical designs, solving difficult problems and conducting thorough code reviews, all aimed at ensuring the software we build is both maintainable and dependable.

IN THIS ROLE, YOU WILL:

- Architect, build, and maintain scalable and reliable data platform infrastructure.

- Implement and optimize analytic query engines using technologies like Trino (Presto), Redshift, and BigQuery.

- Design and support robust data management solutions leveraging Apache Iceberg.

- Collaborate closely with Data Engineering and Analytics teams to ensure effective integration, schema detection, and schema evolution.

- Develop and maintain observability frameworks to monitor and troubleshoot data pipelines and platform performance.

- Implement best practices for data modeling, schema design, and pipeline fan-out strategies.

- Ensure data integrity, quality, and consistency across Medalion architectures, star schemas, and Lakehouse environments.

- Proactively identify opportunities to enhance platform scalability, efficiency, and reliability.

SUCCESS IN THIS ROLE REQUIRES:

- 8+ years of experience in data platform engineering or related roles focusing on infrastructure and data management.

- Deep experience with analytic query engines and platforms such as Trino (Presto), Redshift, BigQuery, and Apache Iceberg.

- Expertise in designing platforms supporting Medalion architecture, star schemas, and schema evolution.

- Solid foundation in automated schema detection, observability, and performance optimization.

- Proficiency with cloud-based platforms and services (AWS, Azure, GCP, etc.).

- Strong skills in Python and experience with modern infrastructure automation tools.

- Excellent problem-solving abilities, particularly in complex data scenarios requiring performance tuning and scalability solutions.

- Strong communication skills, able to articulate platform design concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.

- A proactive and collaborative mindset, comfortable working independently and within fast-paced teams.

WAYS TO STAND OUT:

- Extensive experience in developing highly observable and scalable data platforms.

- Proven expertise in advanced query optimization, database scaling, and platform architecture.

- Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, Pulumi, or AWS CDK.

- Demonstrated ability to align platform engineering strategies closely with strategic business objectives.

WORKING AT REACH SECURITY:

- Competitive salary, commission, and equity package

- Comprehensive benefits package including:

- Medical, dental, and vision insurance, including plan options with company-paid employee coverage

- FSA, HSA, and 401(k) plans
