Role Description
As a Senior Data Engineer on the CMDB and Asset Intelligence platform, you will help build the unified data foundation that powers asset visibility, cost optimization, and security insights across the company. You will design scalable pipelines and data models that bring together sources like ServiceNow, Okta, Oracle, and Jamf into a centralized lakehouse architecture, turning messy, multi-system data into trusted, decision-ready signals.
This role is a chance to raise the bar on data quality and governance while building systems that teams actually rely on day to day. You will partner closely with IT, Security, and Finance to define what “good” looks like, deliver high-impact solutions, and shape the long-term direction of the platform.
Our Engineering Career Framework is viewable by anyone outside the company and describes what’s expected for our engineers at each of our career levels. Check out our blog post on this topic and more here.
Responsibilities
Design and build scalable data pipelines using Databricks and Spark to ingest, transform, and unify data from multiple enterprise systems
Develop and maintain medallion architecture (Bronze, Silver, Gold) data models to create reliable and performant “Golden Record” datasets
Implement data normalization, mapping, and entity resolution techniques (e.g., fuzzy matching, XREF tables) to unify asset data across disparate systems
Build data workflows to detect and surface Shadow IT across financial, identity, endpoint, and network signals and integrate results into CMDB systems
Partner with IT, Security, Finance, Procurement, and GRC teams to define and enforce data standards for critical CMDB attributes (e.g., ownership, approval status, lifecycle)
