About This Role
As PDK continues to grow, the amount of data generated across our systems, products, and operations is increasing rapidly. Turning that data into reliable insights requires a modern, scalable data platform.
We are looking for an experienced Data Engineer to help design and build the systems that power analytics across the company. In this role, you will transform raw operational data into well-structured datasets that enable reporting, product insights, and better decision-making.
You’ll work closely with our engineering and analytics teams to build robust pipelines, define warehouse models, and ensure our data platform is reliable, scalable, and built for the future.
If you enjoy solving data infrastructure problems and building systems that enable an entire organization to move faster with data, this role is for you.
What You’ll Build

This includes:
Designing, building, and maintaining scalable data pipelines that ingest unstructured event data from internal product and engineering databases into our Snowflake data warehouse
