Data Engineer

Grant Street Group

57d • $80,000 - $180,000

About The Position

At Grant Street Group, we build high‑quality software and provide uncompromising support for tax collection, electronic payments, and auctions, helping government agencies work better and deliver reliable, efficient services.

Data-driven decision making is an increasingly important part of our company culture, and our Data Analytics team provides the tools to make it happen. As part of this team, developers are responsible for building and supporting high performance data solutions, monitoring and responding to our growing network of tools, and facing and overcoming complex technical challenges. We are looking for a data engineer who has a strong technical background and interest in ETL processes and data warehousing.

Some qualities we think would make you a good fit:
You enjoy a variety of work: You’re bored by a work environment where every day is the same and the steps are all laid out for you. You’d much prefer a variety of challenging work and ownership over the solution. You love getting to the root of the issue, whether it’s an application error or a client request.
You develop with the end user’s needs in mind: You set up tools to maximize value and minimize headaches for the people who use them. You also develop solutions with an end goal in mind, and build products for the long-term.
You take responsibility for your solutions: You’re comfortable supporting the tools and pipelines you build, monitoring them in production, and troubleshooting issues when they arise.
You love working in a team: You will work in a small but mighty team in charge of the entire data and business intelligence lifecycle. You’ll collaborate with your team members as well as our product teams to create a great experience for our users.

Requirements

• Strong SQL, including data modeling concepts and ETL best practices
• Solid programming skills in Python or Go, and willingness to learn other languages as needed (Groovy, Perl)
• Experience with cloud‑based data engineering (AWS, GCP)
• Experience with tools for large‑scale data migration (Databricks)
• TechOps skills that help you support analytics tools, patch and update platforms, and troubleshoot system issues or failures
• Comfort with the Linux command line and shell scripting
