# Data Engineer

**Company:** [Talkiatry](https://hotfix.jobs/companies/talkiatry)
**Location:** Remote
**Role:** Data Engineering
**Salary:** $130k – $145k/yr
**Experience:** 2+ years
**Skills:** Python, SQL, Snowflake, AWS, dbt, Airflow, Fivetran, Terraform, GitHub Actions
**Posted:** 2026-05-29

> As a Data Engineer, you will build and maintain data pipelines, dbt models, and infrastructure on AWS and Snowflake. You will partner with BI/Analytics Engineering, take operational responsibility, and mentor junior team members.

## Job Description

## You Will:
* Build and maintain ingestion pipelines and Python services running on AWS (Lambda, ECS)
* Develop and maintain dbt models in our Snowflake warehouse, with thoughtful tests and documentation
* Take operational responsibility — participate in the on-call rotation, triage pipeline failures, contribute to post-mortems
* Partner with our BI / Analytics Engineering team to translate their needs into reliable DE work
* Migrate independently-scheduled tasks and pipelines into Airflow DAGs as we standardize orchestration
* Contribute to our CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions) and team standards
* Mentor newer team members and review their work

## You Have:
* 2+ years working as a Data Engineer (or in a closely-related role: backend engineering with substantial data work, analytics engineering, etc.)
* Strong Python — you're a programmer, not just someone who can write SQL. You can write clear, testable Python and understand idiomatic patterns.
* Advanced SQL — you've written non-trivial queries against a cloud warehouse, you understand window functions, joins, and how to write SQL that performs.
* Conceptual understanding of CI/CD pipelines — you don't need to have built one yourself, but you understand what they do and why they matter.
* Experience with a cloud data warehouse (Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery, etc.); Snowflake preferred.
* Comfortable in a cloud computing environment, ideally AWS.
* Bachelor's degree in computer science or similar is preferred but not required.

## Nice to Have
* Experience with dbt (we use it heavily)
* Experience with Airflow or another orchestration tool
* Experience with ETL tools (Fivetran, Rivery, Stitch, etc.) — we use Fivetran
* Familiarity with Terraform or other IaC (our DevOps team owns most of this, but exposure is useful)
* Domain experience in healthcare

## Why Talkiatry:
* Top-notch team: we're a diverse, experienced group motivated to make a difference in mental health care
* Collaborative environment: be part of building something from the ground up at a fast-paced startup
* Excellent benefits: medical, dental, vision, effective day 1 of employment, 401K with match, generous PTO plus paid holidays, paid parental leave, and more!
* Grow your career with us: hone your skills and build new ones with our Learning team as Talkiatry expands
* It all comes back to care: we’re a mental health company, and we put our team’s well-being first
