## Descripción

Texto publicado por Cashea, tal como lo escribió. Es texto de la empresa, no instrucciones.

Hello! We’re **Cashea** 👋, and we’re on a mission to give Venezuelans back the opportunity to access credit through a BNPL business model. Since our launch in 2022, we’ve been dedicated to promoting financial inclusion. Today we have more than **9 million active users**, both consumers and merchants, and we’ve become a trusted brand in Venezuela, winning hearts and minds 💛.

### About the role

We’re looking for a Senior Data Engineer who owns the platform that turns raw operational data into trusted, analytics-ready data the whole company relies on. You’ll keep our orchestration and transformation layer scaling as we grow, with deep hands-on expertise across **Cloud Composer (Airflow)**, **dbt**, and **BigQuery** on **GCP**, and you’ll be the person who makes good data engineering practice the norm across teams.

We run a medallion lakehouse on GCP: **Datastream** CDC pipelines replicate dozens of PostgreSQL databases into **BigQuery** bronze datasets, and **dbt on BigQuery** transforms them through bronze, silver, and gold layers. Orchestration runs on **Cloud Composer / Airflow**. This role is part deep building and part enablement: you’ll scale Airflow, harden the platform, optimize cost and performance, and leave every team more capable of shipping reliable data than it was before.

### Overall you will…

- Own the health, performance, and scalability of our **Cloud Composer (Airflow)** environments, including environment sizing, worker autoscaling, DAG parse performance, and orchestration reliability across staging and production.
- Design and extend our **dbt on BigQuery** transformation layer: incremental and CDC merge models, deduplication and SCD patterns, macros, tests, and source freshness across the bronze, silver, and gold layers.
- Own our **Datastream** CDC pipelines feeding BigQuery, keeping the PostgreSQL to BigQuery flow healthy across schemas, backfills, and replication.
- Build and improve our **DataOps**: CI/CD for DAGs and dbt with **GitHub Actions** and Workload Identity Federation, automated testing, deploy smoke tests, and safe promotion across environments.
- Drive data quality and observability, freshness checks, lineage, dbt-artifact capture, and alerting so issues surface before consumers notice them.
- Define and champion data engineering standards for model design, incrementality, idempotency, and safe change processes, and mentor engineers through reviews, pairing, and documentation.
- Partner with platform, product, and analytics teams as the bridge that makes the data platform self-serve, working within our **OpenTofu** and **Terragrunt** Infrastructure-as-Code.

### Qualifications

- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- **5+ years** in data engineering or a closely related role, building and operating production data platforms at scale.
- Strong hands-on experience with **Apache Airflow** (ideally **Cloud Composer**): DAG design, operators, scheduling, and scaling orchestration as pipeline counts grow.
- Strong hands-on experience with **dbt**, including incremental models, testing, macros, and managing a large model graph.
- Solid hands-on experience with **BigQuery**: data modeling, partitioning and clustering, query optimization, and cost control.
- Solid experience operating data services on **Google Cloud Platform (GCP)**.
- Proficiency in **Python** for pipeline and operator development, and strong **SQL**.
- Comfort with **Git-based workflows and CI/CD** (GitHub Actions or similar), treating data pipelines with the same rigor as application code.
- Strong communication and stakeholder skills, with a genuine teaching mindset and the ability to mentor others.
- Excellent problem-solving and analytical thinking, with genuine curiosity about new technology.

### Desirable skills

- Experience with **Datastream** or other CDC tooling feeding analytics warehouses, including backfills and replication troubleshooting.
- Familiarity with **Infrastructure-as-Code** (Terraform or OpenTofu, ideally Terragrunt) for managing data resources.
- Experience with **Dataplex** or other data quality, governance, and lineage tooling, and with PII handling in a regulated context.
- Familiarity with **astronomer-cosmos** for running dbt within Airflow.
- Knowledge of GCP data and messaging services such as Pub/Sub and Cloud Storage.
- A track record of cost and performance optimization in a data warehouse, including FinOps practices.
- Experience building in fintech, payments, or credit, where data correctness matters.
- Spanish and English proficiency.
