We're looking for a Sr. Data Engineer to join our new Match Group Core Data team.

How you'll make an impact:
Work with engineering teams to ensure data flows accurately from creation to presentation layers
Advocate for the Core Data team by championing best practices around scale, performance, and privacy
Improve the data technology stack through containerization, data modeling, ETL pipeline development, and building scalable/reliable solutions
Translate stakeholder needs into action items and deliverables
Create high-quality, business-ready data solutions suitable for non-engineers
Proactively brainstorm new metrics and data views for business partners
Maintain the data library — core metric definitions, sample data, access tips
Train brand data analysts to support data needs at their dating brand
Communicate regularly with key customers; maintain accurate release notes for platform changes
