- Architect end-to-end pipelines and transformation frameworks leveraging dbt and Python
- Define and maintain standards for self-service analytics, enabling business users through governed and reusable data assets
- Partner with engineering, analytics, and business teams to align on data definitions, governance, and architecture best practices
- Build and optimize data marts and semantic layers for downstream BI tools such as Power BI or Looker
- Guide the design and delivery of a Customer 360 / Member 360 platform, integrating multiple data sources to deliver unified insights
- Support cloud modernization efforts across Snowflake and BigQuery environments
- Apply DevOps and CI/CD practices using Git and modern orchestration frameworks (Airflow, Dagster, etc.)
What we're looking for
- 10+ years of experience in data architecture or advanced data engineering
- Strong hands-on experience with Snowflake (preferred) and/or BigQuery
- Expertise in dbt for modular data modeling, testing, and transformation
- Solid proficiency in Python, including automation and data processing libraries (Pandas, SQLAlchemy, etc.)
- Proven track record designing self-service analytics platforms or Customer 360 data products
- Understanding of data governance, lineage, and metadata management
- Background in Financial Services or Life Sciences is highly preferred
- Familiarity with orchestration and CI/CD tooling (e.g., Airflow, Dagster, GitHub Actions)
- Self-driven, detail-oriented, and able to standardize and own architectural solutions end-to-end

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
