Overview
The Data Platform & Systems Engineer will be responsible for developing, maintaining, and progressively assuming day-to-day ownership of Stellar Virtual's data platform, including its ingestion pipelines, data warehouse, transformation layer, orchestration, integrations, and delivery systems. The engineer works across the full stack—Python, Azure, SQL, dbt, orchestration, and downstream delivery—to ensure the platform is reliable, scalable, maintainable, and operationally sound. Effective use of AI-assisted development and automation is an essential part of the role, both to accelerate engineering work and to improve system monitoring, management, and reliability. As familiarity with the platform grows, the engineer will be expected to work increasingly independently, identify opportunities for improvement, and contribute meaningfully to technical architecture and the platform roadmap.
Success in this role requires strong engineering judgment, ownership, clear communication, and consistent follow-through, in support of Stellar Virtual's mission of empowering families and unleashing potential.
