Data Engineer

Obligo is a Fintech / Real Estate-Tech startup looking for a Data Engineer to join our Data team. You'll own our data architecture, pipelines, and custom Python tooling end-to-end, partnering closely with our analysts, engineers, and stakeholders to keep the platform reliable, performant, and ready to power data-informed decisions and AI across the company.

• Own and maintain our data architecture end-to-end: S3, Databricks compute and administration, pipelines, logging, and our internal tooling
• Keep the platform healthy and reliable — the data we serve feeds product decisions and customer-facing AI, so correctness and uptime matter
• Integrate new data sources and maintain existing ones, handling the messy realities (format changes, awkward upstream systems like NetSuite, schema drift)

• Identify bottlenecks and optimize for both compute and cost — parallelize workloads, tune table and cluster settings, and keep our Databricks spend sane as we scale. We use AI coding tools heavily to move fast here, but the engineering judgment is yours

• Build and maintain the semantic layer that exposes our data reliably and consistently to analysts and AI tools, so the same question always returns the same trustworthy answer
• Implement PII handling and row- and column-level security so sensitive data stays protected everywhere it's consumed

• 4+ years as a data engineer or backend/software engineer working heavily with data
• Strong programming skills — you write clean, maintainable code and can debug and reason about it yourself. We're enthusiastic AI users, but you do the thinking; AI helps you go faster, not skip the hard parts
• Solid understanding of cloud infrastructure and distributed data processing
• Comfortable owning systems end-to-end with minimal supervision
• Strong fundamentals in data modeling, pipelines, and SQL

• Hands-on experience with Databricks (or willingness to ramp up fast)
• Experience building internal tooling / frameworks for other engineers and analysts to use
• Background in Fintech, PropTech, or another data-sensitive domain
• Experience with security and compliance for data platforms (PII, access controls)
