Data Platform Engineers

Data Platform Engineers build and support the infrastructure that enables our Data Engineers and Scientists to thrive. At every stage of the data lifecycle, from ingestion and transformation to data discovery and reporting, we build infrastructure and tools that are on the cutting edge of data.

Why you’ll love building Shopify’s data platform:

• We’ve got a whole lot of data. Every problem we work on has to consider scale from the start.
• We stand on firm foundations. We solve the high rung problems that take mature infrastructure for granted - our data platform is built on top of mature offerings from Google Cloud Platform. We’re especially interested in candidates who have experience working with GCP services.
• We focus on incremental progress and impact. Even though we build big, we ship incrementally. Your work won’t sit months waiting to get in the hands of our users.
• There’s lots of opportunity for that impact. We’ve spent the last year migrating away from a nearly decade old legacy system. We’ve tackled the core use cases and now we’re at an inflection point, with a solid foundation and clear places where we can make life better for our users.
