About the role
About the role
Data is a crucial part of Shopify's mission to make commerce better for everyone. We organize and interpret petabytes of data to provide solutions for our merchants and stakeholders across the organization.
As a Data Engineer at Shopify, your primary responsibility will be to contribute to Shopify's Data Warehouse, while unlocking powerful insights to guide the development and improvement of Shopify's products. You'll operate as either an either an embedded capacity or on a central Data Engineering team at Shopify as part of the Data Insights organization (exclusive of Data Platform Engineering which is part of our Infrastructure organization).
As an embedded Data Engineer, you will work directly on building foundations for products that transform merchants' lives. You'll collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of professionals that can include Product Data Scientists, Machine Learning Engineers, Business Analysts, and Product Management. The data you shape will be used to power product analysis, dashboards, and reports, as well as your own product analysis, dashboard and report creation from time to time. Our product is designed to empower entrepreneurs and thus your work creates value for users, and contributes to global entrepreneurship.
As a central Data Engineer, you will sit amongst a team of Data Engineers focused on defining and up-leveling the craft and product of Data Engineering across all of Shopify. Your impact is seen at scale when you ship high quality data assets to Shopify's Data Warehouse, which is used by thousands of people to perform product analysis, make decisions to support our merchants, and steer strategic decisions of the business. You also achieve with others as you partner with Data Engineers embedded in product teams to share and gather standards and best practices, and perform data architecture duties to up-level and maintain the high quality of Data Engineering at Shopify.
To thrive in either role, you need to be dedicated to your craft and committed to constant development. You should be an independent thinker who can solve complex problems and handle a bit of chaos without breaking a sweat.
