Role
Who you are
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data/Analytics, Mathematics, Physics, or equivalent practical experience
- 3+ years in a data engineering, analytics engineering, or similar role (we’re open to strong 2+ year profiles with proven ownership)
- Hands-on experience building end-to-end data pipelines and data models used for business reporting
- Experience working with financial data (accounting tools, revenue/cost reconciliation, invoicing, payments) is a strong plus
- Experience in a scale-up/SaaS environment and collaborating with non-technical stakeholders is a plus
- Strong SQL skills (complex transformations, performance tuning, dimensional modelling)
- Proficiency in at least one programming language used for data work (e.g., Python)
- Experience with data warehouses (e.g., BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift, Postgres)
- Experience building ELT/ETL with modern tooling (e.g., dbt, Airflow/Dagster/Prefect, Fivetran/Stitch/custom pipelines)
- Data modelling best practices
- Ability to work comfortably in backend contexts: reading/writing code, reviewing PRs, adding/adjusting tracking calls
- Working knowledge of APIs, authentication, and webhooks (helpful for both tracking and source ingestion)
- Familiarity with BI tools / dashboarding (e.g., Tableau) to ensure datasets are dashboard-ready
- Strong ownership mindset: you build, run, and improve — and you care about reliability
- Structured communicator: can translate ambiguous business questions into clear data requirements and deliverables
- High attention to detail and a healthy skepticism for “numbers that don’t look right” (especially for finance metrics)
- Pragmatic problem solver: balances speed with long-term maintainability
- Collaborative and stakeholder-oriented: works well across Finance, Ops, Product, and Engineering
- Comfortable with prioritisation and trade-offs in a fast-moving environment
What the job involves
- Workwize is hiring a Data Engineer to build and scale our end-to-end data foundations: from source systems (back-end, APIs, spreadsheets, finance/accounting tools) to a reliable data warehouse, a structured metrics layer, and trusted dashboards
- You’ll own the core pipelines and data architecture that enable teams to make better decisions, faster — with a strong focus on financial and operational reconciliation, data quality, and scalability
- This role partly reports to the Chief of Staff (business prioritisation, outcomes, stakeholder alignment) and partly to an Engineering Manager (technical coaching, quality bar, growth and development)
- Design, build, and maintain scalable ETL/ELT pipelines from multiple sources (APIs, spreadsheets, SaaS tools, internal systems) into the data warehouse
- Own and evolve Workwize’s data warehouse architecture: schemas, modelling approach, naming conventions, documentation, and access patterns
- Create a structured metrics layer (definitions, transformations, lineage) so KPIs are consistent across dashboards and teams
- Reconcile finance and operational datasets to ensure one source of truth (e.g., matching invoices, payments, revenue, costs, shipments, retrievals)
- Implement robust data quality practices: tests, anomaly detection, monitoring, alerting, and incident response for broken pipelines
- Partner with Finance, Operations, Product, and Engineering to translate business questions into reliable datasets and dashboards
- Improve performance, reliability, and maintainability of pipelines through automation, orchestration, and best practices (version control, code reviews, CI/CD)
- Contribute to analytics enablement: making data discoverable, understandable, and self-serve for stakeholders (documentation, data cataloging, training where helpful)
