Senior Data Engineer
Chicago, IL (Hybrid - 3 days onsite)

I'm working on a really strong opportunity for a Senior Data Engineer to join a high-impact marketing data team driving how organizations measure performance across media, digital, and customer channels.

This is a hands-on role where you'll own the buildout and optimization of data pipelines and models that directly influence marketing investment decisions and consumer insights.

What you'll be doing:

  • Designing and maintaining scalable data pipelines across multiple marketing data sources
  • Building out data models tied to media spend, engagement, conversion, and digital behavior
  • Writing complex SQL transformations for reporting and analytics use cases
  • Working closely with marketing, analytics, and data science teams to translate business needs into data solutions
  • Leveraging Databricks and Informatica to automate and optimize ETL workflows
  • Ensuring data quality, governance, and performance across the pipeline

What they're looking for:

  • 4+ years of data engineering experience in an enterprise environment
  • Strong SQL skills (this is core)
  • Experience with Snowflake and Databricks
  • Hands-on ETL experience, ideally with Informatica
  • Python or PySpark for data processing
  • Background supporting marketing analytics, digital analytics, or media measurement is a big plus

If you're someone who enjoys building data systems that actually get used by the business and want more ownership over end-to-end pipelines, this is a great one.
