About the role

Original posting from Advanced Systems Group via Ashby

Advanced Systems Group, LLC enables creativity through better technology and operations for media creatives and content owners. From acquisition to delivery, on-premises or in the cloud, ASG ensures our clients’ success through tailored solutions. One of North America’s largest Media and Entertainment Technology and Operations suppliers, we provide engineering services, physical and cloud integration, training, support, and managed services. ASG delivers customized operations and services for all phases of media production, including creative and engineering. Founded in 1997, and providing nationwide services, ASG has teams based in North America, South America, and Europe.

Job Summary

ASG is looking for a Data Operations Engineer to join our client’s Business Operations data team, supporting the Senior Data Operations Architect in maintaining and growing the operational backbone for a fast-growing live-streaming and commerce business. This role centers on Airtable systems, API integration maintenance, and cross-source data reliability — not traditional software or data engineering.

The complexity of this role isn't about the number of systems connected — it's about understanding how marketing, production, and monetization financials interconnect, and keeping that web of data trustworthy. You'll spend most of your time testing, maintaining, and troubleshooting; there's a real opportunity to grow into more build work as the team's data infrastructure matures.

This is a strong fit for someone who wants ground-level exposure to how a high-growth business actually runs — production economics, efficiency metrics, financial reporting — with mentorship from the Senior Data Operations Architect, and a full tech team behind you.

This full-time role is 100% onsite in Culver City, CA. You will report directly to the Senior Data Operations Architect.

What You'll Do

  • Help consolidate and manage the team’s Airtable environment.
  • Maintain and troubleshoot API connections between systems like Salesforce, Coupa, and internal AWS finance tools to ensure reliable data flow.
  • Assist with automated reporting by tying financial, moderation, and production data to one central identifier (Stream ID).
  • Build and support dashboards and executive reports to track efficiency and performance.
  • Test and validate new integrations before launch, and proactively fix issues as they arise.
  • Be the go-to person onsite in Culver City, CA for daily support, escalating more complex issues to the Senior Data Operations Architect.
  • Keep our data standards, naming conventions, and system documentation up to date as we scale.

Required Qualifications

  • Experience with data engineering, SQL, data modeling, or cloud data platforms.
  • Hands-on experience building and maintaining Airtable systems at scale (multi-base, relational, dashboards).
  • Experience integrating Airtable or similar tools with other systems via API.
  • Strong troubleshooting skills; you enjoy testing, breaking, and fixing connections.
  • Curiosity about how businesses really work—with a willingness to work with financial and operational data even if you don’t have a finance background.
  • Excellent written communication and documentation skills.
  • Able to work independently and solve moderately complex problems with general guidance.

Nice to Have

  • Background in media, entertainment, live events, or e-commerce operations.
  • Experience with metadata governance, taxonomies, or data standards.
  • Familiarity with automation tools like Zapier, Make, or n8n.

If you’re ready to dive in, learn a ton, and help build the foundation for a dynamic business, we’d love to meet you!
