About the role

We’re hiring a Staff Data Engineer to set the technical direction for our audience data products and build and run the pipelines behind them, from build to delivery, working alongside data science, product, and fellow engineers. 

What you’ll do

  • Build audience pipelines. Create, size, refresh, and deduplicate audiences, with clear contracts on what each one contains.
  • Onboard partner data. Build repeatable patterns for bringing in partner data.
  • Keep partner data mappings current. Maintain identifier mappings with partners as they change, and track match quality over time.
  • Deliver to partners. Deliver data to external partners through APIs, files, and data shares, with tracking, retries, and alerting.
  • Set technical direction. Lead design reviews and build-versus-buy decisions, and mentor data engineers through design and code reviews.
  • Lead how the team builds with AI. Work AI-first every day, and build the agent harnesses, shared skills, and guardrails that make AI-generated work safe to ship.

What you’ll bring

  • 8+ years in data engineering or backend data systems, including production pipelines on high-volume data (consumer data is a plus)
  • Ad tech or martech experience with identity and audience data
  • Experience delivering data to external partners on a schedule
  • Expert SQL and Python, and deep experience with BigQuery or Snowflake
  • Production experience with dbt and Airflow (or a similar orchestrator), CI/CD, and infrastructure as code
  • A track record of setting technical direction across teams, and clear communication with engineers and business leaders
  • Comfort using AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, or GitHub Copilot as an everyday part of your work

Nice to have

  • Integrations with ad tech platforms
  • Data clean room experience
  • Building AI developer tooling: agent harnesses, MCP servers, evals, or CI guardrails
  • Background in ad tech, martech, or consumer data products
  • Experience handling personal data under privacy rules: hashing, consent, opt-outs, and deletion

At Consumer Edge, you’ll join a high-performance team at the forefront of data-driven decision-making for the world’s leading investors and brands. You’ll have the opportunity to shape an important growth market, work alongside smart and ambitious colleagues, and directly influence how we scale internationally.
