Data Pipeline Automation Engineer

 

Engineering - Data Pipelines & Analytics

Remote · Eastern Time

Contract

$50k – $80k USD

Role Purpose

 

We are looking for a Data Pipeline Automation Engineer to design and run the data side of our automation practice - one of the core service categories on the REWORK platform. Businesses come to us drowning in manual exports, copy-paste reporting, and data trapped across tools; you will turn those into automated, monitored pipelines that feed dashboards, alerts, and AI workflows. This role is ideal for someone who thinks in flows of data the way an automation specialist thinks in flows of tasks, and who takes pride in pipelines that keep running quietly for months.

Core Responsibilities

 

Pipeline Design & Integration

 

  • Map where business data lives (CRMs, spreadsheets, SaaS tools, databases) and design the pipelines that unify it
  • Build reliable extract–transform–load flows between platforms, APIs, and warehouses
  • Automate recurring reports and hand-built spreadsheets out of existence

Analytics & AI-Ready Data

 

  • Deliver live dashboards and scheduled reports that replace manual number-pulling
  • Prepare clean, structured datasets that power AI agents, scoring models, and automations

Reliability & Documentation

 

  • Monitor pipeline health, add alerting, and design for graceful failure and recovery
  • Document data flows and schemas so any teammate can trace a number back to its source

Required Qualifications

 

Required Experience

 

  • Proven track record of building data pipelines or reporting automations businesses actually rely on
  • 1+ years of hands-on experience with SQL and at least one pipeline/ETL toolchain

System Design & Problem-Solving

 

  • Strong grasp of data modeling, idempotency, and incremental syncs (source → transform → deliver → monitor)
  • Detail-oriented; able to debug schema drift, API pagination, and silent data-quality failures

Documentation & Nice-to-Haves

 

  • Clear communication with a habit of documenting flows, schemas, and assumptions
  • Nice to have: dbt or warehouse experience, dashboard design (Looker Studio / Power BI), SaaS / startup / digital-ops background

Key Deliverables

 

Manual reporting and data-entry hours measurably reduced or eliminatedPipelines running reliably with monitoring and minimal human interventionDashboards and datasets the business actually trusts and usesClear, well-documented data architecture

Expectations

  • Operate highly independently - evaluated on proof-of-work and reliability of deliverables
  • Collaborate during core hours, 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM Eastern Time
