About the role

At ClickHouse, we believe in making product decisions grounded in data, not gut feelings. To support that, we've built a comprehensive internal data warehouse — read more about it on our blog. It powers analytics, forecasting, and decision-making across every team in the company.

Our stack centers on ClickHouse as the core storage and processing engine, complemented by dbt, Airflow, S3, AWS, Superset, and GitHub Actions. We ingest data from 30+ distinct external sources, process over 2.5 PB of data, and deliver most data marts to business consumers with a 1-hour end-to-end latency - a standard that demands highly optimized, rock-solid transformation pipelines.

We're looking for a Senior Data Engineer to help evolve the DWH platform, push its technical boundaries, and deliver reliable, high-performance data models to business users across the organization.

Key Responsibilities

Qualifications

Required:

• Exceptional SQL skills - this is non-negotiable.
• Strong hands-on experience with Airflow, dbt, and Python.
• Proven track record building and optimizing large-scale, high-throughput data pipelines.
• Solid understanding of data warehousing fundamentals: ETL/ELT, dimensional modeling, and data quality.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field.
• Comfortable thriving in a fast-paced startup environment — exciting and dynamic, but sometimes wonderfully chaotic.

Preferred:

• Hands-on experience with ClickHouse - a significant advantage.
• Familiarity with AWS or other cloud platforms.
• Experience with CI/CD development, especially using GitHub Actions.
