About The Position

We’re looking for a Data Migration Engineer to join the client’s team and support ongoing data migrations for new customer implementations. This is a hands-on, individual contributor role suited for someone with experience in corporate or enterprise data migrations who is comfortable working in a fast-moving, startup-style environment. You’ll be responsible for migrating client data from previous vendors into the platform—often working with raw, imperfect datasets—while collaborating directly with internal teams and, at times, with clients. Over time, you’ll also help move the team toward better tooling and automation.

Requirements

Professional experience working on data migrations or ETL workflows in a corporate or enterprise context.
Strong hands-on experience with Python for data manipulation and transformation.
Solid knowledge of SQL and relational databases.
Experience with manual data mapping, cleaning, and validation.
Ability to work with raw, inconsistent, or incomplete datasets.
Strong problem-solving skills and comfort making decisions with imperfect information.
Ability to work independently, prioritize effectively, and meet SLA-driven deadlines.
Comfortable communicating with internal stakeholders and, when needed, client-facing teams.

Nice To Haves

Interest in or experience using AI tools to improve productivity and data workflows.
Experience working in startup or high-growth environments.
Familiarity with tools like Linear or Jira.
Exposure to building toward automation in otherwise manual processes.

Responsibilities

Execute end-to-end data migrations for new client implementations.
Extract, map, clean, and import data from legacy systems into the platform.
Build and maintain custom, manual data importers using Python and SQL.
Review test data with clients, gather feedback, and iterate on migration results.
Manage and prioritize multiple concurrent migrations aligned with account go-live timelines.
Collaborate closely with another Data Migration Engineer and cross-functional teams.
Contribute ideas toward automation and process improvements as the platform evolves.
