Description

Remote Python Data Engineer

Shape the Future of Dataโ€”From Anywhere

What if your next project let you redefine how teams leverage data on a global scale? As a Remote Python Data Engineer, your skills will fuel powerful analytics and data-driven decisions across dynamic businesses. Here, your creativity in Python engineering will unlock insights, support rapid scaling, and turn ambiguous data streams into actionable intelligence. You'll work from wherever you feel inspired, all while earning an annual salary of $140,971โ€”and you'll always have space to think deeply and solve meaningful challenges.

Your Mission: Transform Data Into Impact

Data pipelines arenโ€™t just codeโ€”theyโ€™re the arteries of progress. In this role, your day begins with a real sense of purpose: โ€œHow can I optimize the way information moves, so every stakeholder gains clarity?โ€

Youโ€™ll architect, refine, and support robust data pipelines using Python, working with cloud-native tools to ensure our analytics run smoothly at scale. Your proactive mindset anticipates challenges before they become bottlenecks, enabling you to create solutions that help product and engineering teams deliver new features to thousands of users. Youโ€™ll be empowered to propose new architectures, automate repetitive flows, and partner with team members to make sure our data strategies serve real people, not just dashboards.

Responsibilities That Move the Needle

  • Design and implement resilient ETL/ELT processes that power business intelligence across the organization
  • Optimize data workflows for scalability, reliability, and speedโ€”never sacrificing clarity for complexity.
  • Champion clean, maintainable Python code, ensuring data consistency for critical analytics and reporting
  • Partner with analytics, product, and engineering colleagues to deliver data products that inform key decisions
  • Monitor data infrastructure with the latest cloud-native tools, quickly resolving issues that could impact stakeholders.
  • Guide decisions about storage, streaming, and real-time pipelines, with an unwavering focus on safeguarding data privacy and meeting regulatory standards.
  • Mentor junior team members, share breakthroughs, and help us all get better every sprint.

What Makes You Thrive Here

Curiosity, precision, and the drive to make data meaningful. Perhaps you love transforming raw data into stories that inform product strategy, or maybe you excel in an environment where every improvement directly enhances remote team collaboration. Your ability to simplify complex ideasโ€”whether on a Slack call or a quick screen shareโ€”means your impact is felt company-wide. You move quickly, but youโ€™ll always have time to step back, assess, and innovate.

Our Tech Stack & Tools

Youโ€™ll work with a robust toolkit, including:

  • Python (Pandas, PySpark, Airflow, FastAPI)
  • SQL and NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, BigQuery)
  • Cloud data platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure)
  • Data warehousing and streaming (Snowflake, Redshift, Kafka)
  • CI/CD and remote collaboration tools (GitHub Actions, Docker, Notion, Zoom)

This environment rewards experimentationโ€”if thereโ€™s a better way to automate, visualize, or orchestrate data, youโ€™ll have the freedom to lead that change.

Your Background: Building and Scaling Data Solutions

Bring a record of delivering production-grade Python data pipelines at scale. Maybe youโ€™ve built real-time analytics for product launches or designed the architecture that powers a teamโ€™s daily decisions. Your expertise includes:

  • Proven Python skills applied to large-scale data workflows
  • Solid command of cloud-based data engineering (bonus: multi-cloud experience)
  • Deep knowledge of modern data warehousing, orchestration, and security practices
  • Ability to write concise, readable, and well-tested code that others can build on
  • You simplify technical concepts for non-technical colleaguesโ€”your communication empowers everyone

Work Environment: Remote, Flexible, and Human

Youโ€™ll join a remote-first culture that prizes results and well-being. Set your own workspace, work asynchronously or synchronously, and stay connected through a digital stack designed for collaboration. Here, flexibility isnโ€™t just a buzzwordโ€”itโ€™s a real commitment. Youโ€™ll have the support of a passionate data community and leaders who value transparency, mentorship, and impact.

Why This Role Matters

The solutions you deliver today will define how teams work tomorrow. By refining our data pipelines, youโ€™ll empower product teams to launch features, analysts to surface hidden trends, and leaders to make faster, smarter decisions. Every dashboard, every real-time notification, and every product insight traces back to the data platforms you help build. You wonโ€™t just support the businessโ€”youโ€™ll shape its trajectory.
