About the role
We are seeking a skilled and adaptable Data Engineer who is passionate about data infrastructure and long-term career growth. This role offers an opportunity to build and maintain scalable data solutions while developing expertise in Palantir Foundry and other modern data tools. We value individuals who are excited to expand their technical capabilities over time, work on multiple accounts, and contribute to a dynamic and growing team.
You will play a pivotal role in transforming raw data from various sources into structured, high-quality data products that drive business decisions. The ideal candidate should be motivated to learn and grow within the organization, actively collaborating with experienced engineers to strengthen our data capabilities over time.
About the project
This project focuses on building a centralized data platform for a leading investment firm that supports data-driven decision-making for high-growth companies. Currently, data is sourced from multiple locations, including Excel files, third-party tools, and custom applications, managed within separate systems. This decentralized approach creates inefficiencies and introduces the potential for data inaccuracies.
The objective is to integrate these data sources into a single, unified platform that streamlines access and reduces manual errors. By transforming financial, legal, and operational data into structured data marts, the platform will enable advanced analytics and real-time visualization through BI tools on both web and mobile interfaces.
