The pieces are in place. What's missing is the senior engineer who sets the standard for how it all gets built, deployed, and run, so pipelines stop behaving like one-off projects and start behaving like a platform.\nThe Role\nYou'll own the design and governance of the ELT pipelines that feed analytics and reporting across a large financial services organization. This is a hands-on technical lead seat. You write the code, set the patterns others follow, review architecture, and mentor the engineers around you. Everything runs on AWS and infrastructure lives in Terraform. When a pipeline breaks, a Snowflake bill spikes, or a new tool needs a yes or no, you're the one people look to.\nDay to Day\nBuild and tune Fivetran ingestion and CDC out of DB2 and other sources, handle schema changes without breaking downstream models, and hold the line on ingestion SLAs. Structure dbt projects into staging, intermediate, and mart layers, write the macros and tests that keep them consistent, and make lineage and documentation something people actually use.\nShape the Snowflake architecture: warehouse sizing, workload isolation, clustering, access control, secure sharing, and the cost conversation nobody else wants to have. Provision Snowflake objects and AWS infrastructure through Terraform so every environment is repeatable and auditable.\nOwn the CI/CD path for data assets, from linting and automated validation through dev, test, and prod promotion that compliance can trace. Write Python, PySpark, and SQL where dbt isn't the right tool, and set the standards the team writes to. Run proofs of concept on new tooling and make the call on what earns a spot in the stack. Work with security and compliance so controls hold without slowing the team to a crawl.\nWhat We're Looking For\nSomeone who has already built this kind of platform and has opinions about what they'd do differently next time. You can explain why you sized a warehouse the way you did, why a model lives in intermediate instead of a mart, and what a bad schema change cost you once. You spot problems before anyone asks, and you can walk a business stakeholder through a technical tradeoff without losing them.\nExperience That Matters\n7 to 8+ years of hands-on data engineering, with real production time in a heavy AWS environment (required)\nSnowflake architecture and performance tuning at enterprise scale\nFivetran connector configuration, CDC, and schema evolution\nTerraform for cloud infrastructure and Snowflake object management\nDB2 as a source system: you know how data comes out of it and where it bites\ndbt in production: modular models, macros, tests, documentation, version control\nCI/CD for data pipelines and a history of leading or mentoring engineers\nBachelor's in a data-centric field or equivalent experience\nNice to Have\nKafka or other streaming work, PySpark at scale, Azure exposure, and time in banking or another regulated industry.\nInterested candidates can apply directly or contact  for more information","description_format":"text","description_chars":3284,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":7,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":true},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-15T12:41:48Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":23,"reasons":["conf:2","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-16T01:46:52Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":140000,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/techpartnersllc-senior-data-engineer-dallas-tx","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/techpartnersllc-senior-data-engineer-dallas-tx.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-16T01:46:52Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2846,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-17T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4421038},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4421038"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Ftechpartnersllc-senior-data-engineer-dallas-tx"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Ftechpartnersllc-senior-data-engineer-dallas-tx"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Ftechpartnersllc-senior-data-engineer-dallas-tx"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/techpartnersllc-senior-data-engineer-dallas-tx\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Ftechpartnersllc-senior-data-engineer-dallas-tx"}]}
