Data Engineer, Growth

About the opportunity

At Contentful we are building a Marketing Growth team for rapid product experiments. We are looking for Data Engineers to power the data and event pipelines that ensure the team can make data driven decisions on the experiments and drive actions across our insight and decisioning tools.

You will help design and implement tracking and data pipelines and contribute to designing and building strong data models that enable rapid and reliable decision making. You will work closely with Data Analysts, Product Managers, Engineers and Marketers to ensure the needs and priorities are understood.

This role will be focused on the data engineering required to drive our Growth Team experiments including integrating with CRM systems, powering analysis and segmentation, and delivering the information required for reporting and self-serve discovery.

Ideally, you have already worked on delivering marketing data pipelines in a B2B SaaS business and you’re looking for a challenge in a company that puts data-driven decisions at the center of its product and business.

• You will understand the value of tested, reliable information and the importance of a shared source of truth. You will extend and model and update our data model to ensure we support Contentful’s needs
• Integrate with CRM systems to power experimentation and segmentation of messaging
• You contribute to supporting and improving our data tooling and infrastructure
• Maintain and evolve data services to enrich data model and serve analytics and generation of insights using tools such as Airflow and DBT
• Bridging gap between the Marketing Strategies and data pipeline logic to implement scalable solutions while troubleshooting data discrepancies

What you need to be successful?

• You have strong SQL modeling and optimization knowledge for different analytics and decisioning workloads and scenarios
• Experience with data processing pipelines and design in batch and near real time and of integrating with CRM systems such as Salesforce, Marketo and Intercom
• Solid, professional knowledge of Python and SQL with JavaScript and Golang being an advantage
