You'll design the systems that make this possible, enabling self-service analytics, automated decision-making, and increasingly intelligent workflows across the company.\nWhat You'll Do\nBuild our data platform from zero: Architect and implement our internal data warehouse, ingestion infrastructure, ETL/ELT pipelines, and core data models.\n\nCreate agent-ready data foundations: Design reliable, well-documented datasets and interfaces that AI agents can safely discover, query, and use.\n\nTurn messy data into trusted systems: Transform fragmented operational and product data into consistent, high-quality sources of truth.\n\nEnable self-service analytics: Build the infrastructure that allows engineering, product, and business teams to answer questions independently without relying on manual data requests.\n\nOwn product analytics infrastructure: Establish the event tracking, instrumentation, data models, and reporting foundations needed to understand product usage and performance.\n\nAutomate data operations: Leverage AI coding agents and intelligent automation to accelerate pipeline development, data validation, documentation, monitoring, and troubleshooting.\n\nBuild for reliability and scale: Establish data quality standards, observability, governance, and scalable architectural patterns from the beginning.\n\nRaise the engineering bar: Mentor engineers, establish strong data engineering practices, and lead architectural decisions through hands-on execution.\n\nWhat We're Looking For\nStaff-level engineering expertise with extensive hands-on experience building and operating production data platforms.\n\nProven greenfield experience: You've personally led the design and implementation of a data platform from scratch, rather than exclusively maintaining or extending existing infrastructure.\n\nDeep understanding of data warehouses, ETL/ELT architectures, data modeling, orchestration, and distributed data processing.\n\nStrong proficiency in SQL and Python, with the software engineering fundamentals needed to build reliable data infrastructure.\n\nExperience with modern data technologies such as Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Databricks, dbt, Airflow, Dagster, or equivalent tools.\n\nStrong understanding of data quality, lineage, observability, access controls, and production data reliability.\n\nExperience designing analytics infrastructure that supports product insights and operational decision-making.\n\nAI-native engineering habits: You already use AI coding agents as part of your daily workflow and actively automate repetitive development and data engineering tasks.\n\nAbility to make pragmatic architectural decisions, balancing scalability, simplicity, performance, and engineering velocity.\n\nDemonstrated technical leadership, including mentoring engineers and establishing engineering standards.\n\nNice to have\nYou've been the founding or early Data Engineer responsible for building a company's first real data platform.\n\nYou've designed data systems that support both traditional analytics and AI-powered applications or autonomous agents.\n\nYou have experience building semantic layers, data discovery systems, or structured interfaces that make enterprise data accessible to AI.\n\nYou've automated substantial portions of data pipeline development, validation, or maintenance using AI agents.\n\nYou know how to avoid overengineering while building foundations that won't need to be replaced six months later.\n\nYou're comfortable moving between data architecture, production pipelines, analytical modeling, and hands-on debugging.\n\nCompensation & Benefits NoticeThe national pay range for this full-time position is base salary of $200,000 –$260,000. All employees are eligible for equity compensation, and employees may also receive performance-based bonuses, dependent on role and subject to company policies. micro1 provides a comprehensive benefits package, including up to 100% reimbursement for health-insurance premiums, paid time off, a 401(K) plan with a company match, and additional benefits designed to support a high-performing, remote-first workforce.\nmicro1 is an equal opportunity employer.
