If you’re passionate about food, technology, and making a real impact, your seat at the table is ready.
We are looking for a Senior Data Engineer to join our Core Data team and play a key role in transforming TheFork’s data capabilities through the implementation of a modern, self-service Data Platform (DPaaS).
In this role, you will not only build scalable, production-grade data pipelines, but also contribute to designing and evolving the platform that enables domain teams to autonomously produce and consume trusted data products.
You will apply strong software engineering principles to data engineering, help define governance standards, and actively contribute to shifting our organisation from a centralised BI model to a federated, domain-oriented data ecosystem.
You will report directly to the Senior Data Engineering Manager and work in close collaboration with:
DataOps team: who own the Data Platform infrastructure
BI teams, Engineering teams and Data Science teams: who are the main consumers of the platform
Design and implement scalable, production-grade data pipelines following strong software engineering practices (version control, CI/CD, automated testing, observability).
Contribute to shaping and validating the target data architecture in collaboration with Architects, Staff Engineers, and DataOps.
Data Governance & Quality
Implement and enforce data contracts and quality controls aligned with defined SLOs.
Apply data modeling best practices including medallion architecture to create trusted, reusable data assets
Actively support product and engineering teams in adopting the platform, with a strong focus on developer experience.
Minimum 6 years of data engineering experience, including significant exposure to production-grade data platforms and cross-team leadership.
Data Platform & Architecture
Deep hands-on experience with a modern cloud lakehouse in production-grade environments (e.g. Strong expertise in analytical data modeling (including medallion architecture) and safe schema evolution.
Strong understanding of MPP systems and distributed data processing principles.
Experience optimizing query performance and compute cost in cloud data warehouses.
Orchestration & Data Integration
Experience designing self-service data platform capabilities is a strong plus.
Cloud & Infrastructure Engineering
Strong experience with AWS-based data architectures (S3, IAM, networking fundamentals).
Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code (e.g. Experience implementing CI/CD pipelines for data workflows.
Understanding of security-by-design principles in cloud data environments.
Data Quality, Governance & Observability
Experience implementing data quality frameworks, data contracts, and validation strategies.
Strong understanding of metadata management, lineage tracking, and monitoring practices.
Structure complex technical problems into actionable plans and manage cross-team dependencies.
Mentor and help other engineers grow through technical guidance and feedback.
A permanent contract (that can be useful in life)
Flexible working environment (2 days home office per week + up to 4 total weeks additional flexibility during the summer period and in December to work fully remotely)
Lunch vouchers available for each working day (because yes, we like to try our best restaurants)
Lifestyle benefits that can be used to reimburse expenses related to physical and leisure activities, family support, travel etc
Free access to the Calm app to help you build resilience wherever you are in your mental health journey
