As a Senior Software Engineer on the Data Engineering team, you are a core builder of the Caspian Data Platform — Ripple's centralized lakehouse that powers analytics, financial reporting, product intelligence, and data-driven operations across every business unit. You own the design and delivery of production-grade pipelines end to end. You raise the engineering bar for the team through code reviews, technical design, and mentorship. You operate with high autonomy on complex, cross-functional data initiatives and bring sound judgment to tradeoffs around performance, cost, reliability, and maintainability.
- Design, build, and operate production ETL pipelines on Databricks using Delta Live Tables and Spark, applying medallion architecture patterns across Finance, Payments, Product, and GTM domains.
- Own data modeling in different layers — defining governed, reusable table structures that serve as reliable sources of truth for business metrics and downstream consumption.
- Drive technical design for projects spanning multiple teams, writing clear design documents that articulate architecture, tradeoffs, and rollout plans.
- Build pipeline observability into your work — failure detection, alerting, retry logic, and the operational hygiene that keeps oncall burden low.
- Integrate AI tooling into data workflows: agentic systems for pipeline triage, automated code generation for transformations, and natural language interfaces for data access.
- Mentor engineers, reviewing their code and designs and helping them grow into more complex ownership.
- Contribute to platform infrastructure through Terraform, and work with Unity Catalog to establish data contracts, access controls, and lineage.
- 5–8 years of hands-on data engineering experience building and maintaining production pipelines and data models.
- Deep proficiency with Databricks or similar platforms — Delta Live Tables, Unity Catalog, Delta Lake, and PySpark or Spark SQL as primary tools.
- Strong SQL skills: complex transformations, incremental materialization, schema evolution, and data quality validation.
- Solid AWS experience relevant to building and operating data systems at scale.
- Proficiency in Python for data engineering — ingestion, transformation, testing, and utility tooling.
- Experience with CI/CD tooling such as GitLab and infrastructure-as-code with Terraform.
- Exposure to AI tooling in a data context — whether building agents, using LLMs for code generation, or enabling self-serve analytics workflows.
- The ability to take ambiguous requirements, define the right data model and pipeline design, and deliver with minimal oversight.
- Familiarity with financial, payments, or blockchain data.
- Experience with Fivetran or similar ingestion tools and their operational patterns.
