Data Engineering Architect at Juniper Square

**Who this is for** This role is designed for a heavyweight technical leader with over 10 years of experience who wants to remain deeply hands-on while driving high-level strategy. You should be an expert in modern cloud data stacks (AWS/GCP/Azure) and distributed processing (Spark/Flink), with a particular focus on evolving traditional data warehouses into AI-ready "Data for Agents" platforms. **Key highlights** This is a high-compensation, fully remote position offering a competitive salary range of $210k–$260k USD (or up to $270k CAD) plus equity. The role provides a unique opportunity to lead a complete architectural transformation, moving the organization toward data mesh and lakehouse architectures while building the infrastructure necessary for LLMs and agentic workflows. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have successfully led the transition from project-based data delivery to a scalable, self-service Data Platform. * Are an expert in dimensional modeling, semantic layers (dbt, Cube), and SQL/Python/Scala. * Are excited about building RAG-ready architectures, vector stores, and embedding pipelines for AI applications. * Can balance executive-level technical authority with daily tasks like code reviews and performance troubleshooting.
