Senior Data Platform Engineer

DEPT®, Gran Buenos Aires, Argentina +3

The role

At DEPT®, you will find the freedom to explore, the space to collaborate, and the trust to make a real impact for our clients, for each other, and for the world we are helping to build.

We are hiring hands-on Senior Data Engineers in Argentina to join the data engineering squads we have in place at one of our clients. This is not a marketing or e-commerce analytics role. The work is about getting to grips with complex, real-world datasets and turning them into reliable, well-modeled data.

What you need

What you bring

5–7 years of experience as a data engineer, including significant time spent building or operating a data platform rather than just running pipelines on top of one.
Strong SQL
Hands-on experience with Databricks and/or Snowflake.
Experience with AWS data services such as S3, Glue, Step Functions, Lambdas
Experience with orchestration tools such as Airflow or Databricks Workflows, and with building reusable workflows that scale across many pipelines.
Strong grasp of data governance, security, and operational practices, such as access control, data quality frameworks, monitoring, and incident response, in a production environment.
Experience building CI/CD for data workflows and designing orchestration patterns that hold up as a platform scales, not just individual pipelines.
Experience with Terraform or other Infrastructure as Code tooling.
Solid data modeling skills, and the judgment to recognize a good model and push back on a poor one.
A track record of solving the operational and cost challenges that come with data at scale, not just the modeling challenges.
Experience with a variety of complex datasets beyond clickstream or e-commerce data.
Exposure to streaming or document-store technologies (e.g., Kafka, MongoDB) is a plus, not a requirement.
Proficiency in a general-purpose programming language (e.g., Python)

Soft skills

Excellent communication and presentation skills, including executive-level communication
Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities
Ability to manage stakeholders and build relationships across teams
Collaborative mindset and ability to work in cross-functional teams
Strategic thinking

Take into account

You will have to communicate with your team members abroad, therefore fluency in English and excellent communication skills (both written and verbal) are a must for this role.
