Data Engineer - Location Flexible

• You will help define/design data integrations, data quality frameworks and design/evaluate open source/vendor tools for data lineage
• You will work closely with Dropbox business units and engineering teams to develop strategy for long term Data Platform architecture

Requirements

• BS or MS degree in Computer Science or a related technical field
• 4+ years of Python or Java development experience
• 4+ years of SQL experience (No-SQL experience is a plus)
• 4+ years of experience with schema design and dimensional data modeling
• Ability in managing and communicating data warehouse plans to internal clients.
