Lead Data Engineer (Remote - North America) - job 1 of 2

This position is posted by Jobgether on behalf of Verdigris. We are currently looking for a Lead Data Engineer in North America.

This role offers a unique opportunity to shape the foundation of a modern data platform powering real-time energy intelligence at scale. You'll architect high-performance data pipelines and infrastructure to support analytics, IoT integration, and machine learning. In a highly collaborative and purpose-driven environment, you’ll lead key architectural decisions and bring clarity to complex data flows. If you're motivated by building robust systems with real-world environmental impact, this is a chance to make your mark while working fully remotely with a forward-thinking, agile team.

Accountabilities:

  • Design and own schema modeling for energy metering and building management data.
  • Architect and maintain cost-effective, high-throughput data storage solutions (e.g. ClickHouse, StarTree).
  • Build, optimize, and manage scalable ETL/ELT pipelines for ingesting and transforming sensor data.
  • Lead the evaluation and integration of modern tools in a scalable data stack.
  • Implement and uphold data quality, governance, and validation frameworks.
  • Support real-time analytics, streaming pipelines, and BI tooling across domains.
  • Collaborate with AI/ML, web, and application teams to meet real-time and batch data access needs.
  • Contribute to building internal data tools and infrastructure to support engineering and analysis.
  • Manage projects, mentor junior engineers, and coordinate with technical leads.
  • Based in North America with availability during core working hours (10:00AM–5:00PM PST).
  • 5+ years of experience in data engineering at scale with large-volume, high-frequency datasets.
  • Expertise in dimensional modeling, OLAP schema design, and columnar data stores (e.g., ClickHouse, Druid).
  • Strong SQL skills and experience with Python for pipeline development and data manipulation.
  • Familiarity with event-driven systems, stream processing tools (Kafka, Flink, Spark Streaming), and real-time analytics.
  • Experience with ETL orchestration tools (e.g., Dagster, Airflow), AWS cloud services, and PostgreSQL.
  • Knowledge of time-series data practices, especially within IoT or energy-related domains, is a plus.
  • Bonus points for experience in BMS/HVAC data systems, data observability, cataloging, and MLOps.
  • Proven leadership, team mentorship, and a strong track record of collaborative delivery.
  • Competitive compensation based on experience and location.
  • Fully remote role with flexible working hours.
  • Opportunity to drive meaningful impact on climate-focused technology.
  • Work alongside a team that values curiosity, candid communication, and continuous learning.
  • Supportive environment with a strong emphasis on growth and shared success.
  • Inclusive and diverse culture where different perspectives are welcomed and respected.
