Data Engineer Lead

Description

Roundforest's mission is to simplify shopping. We’re looking for a passionate candidate who gets excited from the opportunity to join our journey and impact 40,000,000 consumers (and counting).

Data Engineer Lead objective:

Build and lead the data engineering team at Roundforest, develop and improve our data platform, warehouse and pipelines by using cutting edge technologies.

At Roundforest, we value creative thinking and therefore often will do things differently. Accordingly, Roundforest's Data Engineer Lead role may differ in a few ways from similar positions out there: 

You'll have the opportunity to work on a large-scale marketing funnel that will have a direct impact on the business's daily performance. This is a great opportunity to learn about system reliability, performance optimization, and marketing using platforms like Google Ads, Microsoft Ads (Bing), and Facebook. You'll also have the freedom to explore new ideas, approaches, and technologies, which will help you grow and develop your skills. Overall, this is a great opportunity to learn and make a real difference in the company.

Finally, we’re looking for candidates with a ׳hop margin׳ - a secret ingredient we look for in all new hires. In other words, this position requires the candidate to leap into the next phase of their career and to step outside their comfort zone, while maintaining a reasonable learning curve. Let's evolve together!
