Staff Data Platform Engineer, Enterprise Data
About The Position
We're building a new team to own Radiant's internal data infrastructure, executive analytics, and AI capabilities. As a Staff Data Platform Engineer, you'll be hands-on building the integrations and pipelines that connect Radiant's operational systems—Finance, HR, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, and Recruiting—into a unified data platform. Your first priority will be the ION-Ramp integration: building the pipeline that enables three-way matching (PO + Receipt + Invoice) between our manufacturing execution system and payments platform. This directly reduces manual work for the Finance team. From there, you'll expand to connect 9 enterprise systems, build dbt transformation models, and ensure data quality across the platform.
Requirements
- 5+ years of data engineering or software engineering experience
- Python and SQL proficiency—you'll write both daily
- Experience with data warehouses—Databricks, Snowflake, BigQuery, or Redshift
- ETL/ELT pipeline development—Fivetran, Airbyte, Stitch, or custom pipeline experience
- API integration experience—REST, GraphQL; you're comfortable reading API docs and building integrations with enterprise SaaS tools
- Data modeling skills—dimensional modeling, schema design, understanding of how data will be used downstream
Nice To Haves
- Background in hardware or hardtech companies—you understand manufacturing, supply chain, and physical product development
- Experience with dbt (data build tool)
- Experience with data quality frameworks and testing (Great Expectations, dbt tests, etc.)
- Comfortable building lightweight internal tools—Python/Flask, basic frontend—or using AI coding assistants (Cursor, Copilot) to extend your capabilities
- Familiarity with MES, ERP, or supply chain systems (ION, SAP, NetSuite, etc.)
Responsibilities
- Build integrations: Configure Fivetran connectors, build custom pipelines, and connect 9 enterprise systems (ION, Ramp, QuickBooks, Rippling, Ashby, Salesforce, SharePoint, Smartsheet, DocuSign)
- Develop the ION-Ramp pipeline: Build the Snowflake → Databricks → Ramp pipeline that enables three-way matching for Finance
- Write dbt models: Transform raw data into clean, documented, tested models for dashboards and analytics
- Ensure data quality: Implement testing, monitoring, and alerting for data pipelines; catch issues before they reach dashboards
- Support dashboards: Work with the PM and stakeholders to ensure the data models support Finance, Operations, and HR/Recruiting dashboards
- Document everything: Maintain clear documentation for pipelines, models, and data definitions
