Graduate Data Engineer

We run a marketplace with over 300,000 active sellers and fulfillment centres in four regions. Since 1992, the company has expanded from listings into payments, shipping and seller financing.

The position:

Capstanline HQ needs someone who writes solid SQL and Python and treats pipelines like production software. This hire will help replace a set of fragile nightly scripts with tested, monitored pipelines. This is a full-time remote role.

• Model data in dbt using staging, intermediate and mart layers
• Ingest data from APIs, SaaS tools and databases with Fivetran, Airbyte or custom Python
• Design table layouts and partitioning for Parquet, Delta Lake or Iceberg
• Tune slow queries and expensive jobs
• Handle PII according to retention, masking and access policies

Qualifications:

• 1+ years of data engineering, or backend work with data at volume
• Hands-on with an orchestration tool such as Airflow
• Expert SQL, including window functions and query tuning
• Working knowledge of AWS, GCP or Azure data services
• Understanding of dimensional modelling and slowly changing dimensions
• Patience with messy source data and the habit of documenting assumptions

Preferred qualifications:

• Dbt Certified Developer or Databricks certification
• Reverse ETL tools like Hightouch or Census
• Kafka, Flink or Spark Structured Streaming
• Background in finance or marketing data

Salary: NPR 89,000 - NPR 115,000 pcm
