About The Position

The Data Engineer builds and maintains the data pipelines, models, and real-time streams that serve as the foundation for 7-Eleven’s Marketing Technology (MarTech) personalization, decisioning, and measurement capabilities. This role is responsible for making Customer 360 (C360) a reliable single source of truth, engineering batch and event-driven pipelines (including loyalty, promotion, and pump/transaction data), and delivering governed, well-documented customer attributes to downstream activation platforms. The Data Engineer partners with data science, architecture, MarTech engineering, and platform owners to close upstream data-quality, freshness, and coverage gaps that limit personalization today. This role directly enables timely, accurate, and compliant use of customer data across every marketing channel.
