For decades, Kindsight has supported the education, healthcare, and nonprofit sectors with fundraising tools and the largest charitable giving database on the market. And as the giving sector evolves, so does Kindsight. As the leader in fundraising intelligence, Kindsight leverages real-time data and AI to help thousands of organizations around the world identify, manage, and engage with donors - at any scale. With purpose-built CRMs that corral all of that donor information and campaign tracking into one place, donor prospect research tools that offer proactive insights and real-time donor intel, and generative AI that creates personalized, meaningful content drafts at scale, Kindsight’s product suite is truly changing the game for donor fundraising.\nPosition Summary:\nWe are seeking a hands-on Data Engineer to build and maintain the data platform behind Kindsight's customer-facing analytics products. You will work across the full pipeline: ingesting data from customer environments into our data lake, and transforming it through a dimensional data warehouse that powers dashboards and AI-driven insights. This is a strong fit for someone who enjoys building production data systems and wants depth in modern data engineering, cloud infrastructure, and multi-tenant analytics at scale.\nWhat You’ll Do:\nBuild and maintain ELT pipelines that ingest data from customer Salesforce environments into our AWS data lake, covering both scheduled batch loads and near-real-time change data capture.\n\nDevelop data transformation layers (medallion architecture) and dimensional models in dbt on Redshift or Snowflake, implementing incremental logic, slowly changing dimensions, and derived metrics against defined specifications.\n\nWrite and optimize advanced SQL for transformation, aggregation, and data quality validation across large, multi-tenant datasets.\n\nWork hands-on with AWS: S3, Glue, Athena, Redshift, Step Functions, Lambda, IAM, Lake Formation, and CloudWatch.\n\nOnboard new customer data sources by extending existing configuration-driven pipelines, and verify each onboarding against defined acceptance criteria.\n\nBuild automated data quality checks, reconciliation queries, and monitoring so that pipeline failures are caught and diagnosed quickly.\n\nInvestigate and resolve data issues end to end - from source system behaviour through ingestion and transformation to the final reported number.\n\nContribute to infrastructure as code (AWS CDK or Terraform) for the pipelines and resources you work on.\n\nSupport dashboard and reporting development in QuickSight or Tableau, ensuring the underlying data models serve them correctly.\n\nWhat We’re Looking For:\n3+ years of hands-on data engineering experience building and operating production data pipelines.\n\nAdvanced SQL. You are comfortable with window functions, CTEs, complex joins, and query performance tuning, and you can debug a wrong number by reading the query plan and the data.\n\n2+ years of hands-on AWS experience, including S3, Glue, Athena or Redshift, IAM, and at least one orchestration service such as Step Functions, or Airflow.\n\n2+ years building ETL/ELT pipelines with dbt, or equivalent transformation frameworks, including incremental models and testing.\n\n2+ years working with cloud data warehouses ; Redshift, or Snowflake - including dimensional modeling with star schemas and query optimization.\n\nSolid Python for data work: API integrations, data processing scripts, and pipeline code.\n\nExperience with Git-based workflows, code review, and CI/CD for data pipelines.\n\nBachelor's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.\n\nBonus:\nExperience integrating Salesforce data, including the REST and Bulk APIs, Change Data Capture, and Salesforce data models and objects.\n\nFamiliarity with fundraising or nonprofit sector data, or CRM and ERP data models more generally.\n\nExperience with open table formats such as Apache Iceberg, or Delta Lake\n\nExperience with multi-tenant data platforms and tenant isolation patterns.\n\nExperience with infrastructure as code, particularly AWS CDK.\n\nExperience with BI development in QuickSight or Tableau.\n\nCompensation Range: $120,000 - $135,000 CAD OTE annually, based on experience, market benchmarks and role complexity. We aim to offer fair, competitive pay that reflects your skills and the market.\nThis advertised position is for an existing vacancy at Kindsight.
