What We Offer
~1 min readWe're looking for a skilled and enthusiastic Junior Data Engineer to join our growing team! We're a close-knit group building and maintaining mission-critical data products, and we need someone who can hit the ground running.
This role requires a solid understanding of data engineering best practices, and experience with orchestration, data modeling, and data warehouses. You'll be responsible for designing, building, and maintaining production data pipelines that power customer-facing solutions. You’ll leverage various technologies we already use, including GCP services like Cloud Composer, Cloud SQL, and BigQuery.
Beyond the technical skills, we value collaboration, a proactive approach to problem-solving, and a willingness to learn and adapt to evolving technologies. If you're passionate about data, thrive in a collaborative environment, and are excited by the prospect of working on impactful projects, we encourage you to apply.
Requirements
~1 min read- Proficiency in Python and SQL.
- Proven experience (2+ years) building and maintaining data pipelines using Airflow/Cloud Composer.
- Strong understanding of data warehousing principles and experience working with BigQuery.
- Understanding of data engineering fundamentals, like ETL/ELT, data modeling, and building idempotent, reliable pipelines.
- Experience with Git and cloud platforms (GCP preferred).
- Experience building and deploying interactive dashboards or data apps (e.g., Dash on Cloud Run) is a plus.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and a proactive approach to identifying and resolving issues.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills - you'll be working closely with analysts and other stakeholders.
- Comfort and enthusiasm for using AI tools like Claude in your daily workflow.
- Make real-world impact: Influence positive change across one of the biggest societal challenges of our generation: building and maintaining sustainable public infrastructure.
- Sell a genuinely differentiated platform: You’ll represent a disruptive, data-driven solution with a compelling value proposition in a market that is eager to engage.
- Operate at the intersection of infrastructure, scale-up, and data science: We live where infrastructure meets AI and advanced data. There is no other team like ours in Toronto.
- Move fast, learn faster: There’s no corporate bureaucracy here. You’ll accomplish more in a few months than you would in years at a large, entrenched technology company.
- Be empowered by data and AI: We believe Data and AI will play an outsized role in the future of sales and decision-making. Every CityZen has access to generative AI tools and our full data universe to enhance productivity and encourage experimentation.
- Grow with intention: We invest deeply in our people through in-role coaching, skill-based development, an internal mentorship program, and clear internal promotion pathways.
- Win as a team: We work hard, we support one another, and we celebrate progress along the way. We’re serious about solving infrastructure and just as serious about enjoying the journey together.
Citylitics is an equal opportunity employer. We are passionate about providing a safe workplace where everyone is accepted and has the opportunity to grow with us. We are committed to making diversity and inclusivity part of our culture!
