As a Principal Engineer, you will be a key individual contributor within our organization's Data Engineering Services team. You will be a hands-on engineer and subject matter expert, responsible for architecting, building, and maintaining the data pipelines, ingress/egress integrations, and downstream data feeds that are critical to enterprise identity and workforce data operations. Your influence will extend within your immediate team as you set technical standards, ensure data integrity, and mentor emerging talent. You will also be expected to work fluently with AI-assisted engineering tools such as Claude, applying them as a core part of how you design pipelines, reason through schema and indexing tradeoffs, debug complex stored procedures, and document integration architecture, not as an occasional convenience, but as a working practice you bring to daily data engineering activities.
You will own the end-to-end data lifecycle within the enterprise data platform; from source feed onboarding through downstream delivery with business stakeholders and downstream systems relying on this data for the continued operation of enterprise identity, access management, and workforce processes. You will be a primary technical lead, partnering with leadership to align data engineering initiatives with overarching business goals. Your expertise will be instrumental in expanding feed coverage, hardening automation around file delivery and processing, and ensuring operational excellence across all integration points. Your role is not just to maintain, but to modernize and elevate the reliability and scalability of our data platform, including how effectively AI-assisted tooling is woven into the team's day-to-day engineering and problem-solving.
This role offers a unique opportunity to be the engineering anchor for a critical enterprise data platform, shaping the reliability and growth of data repository operations that power workforce identity and access management across the organization.

You have a track record of owning feed integrations end-to-end, from requirements through ongoing production support, and are comfortable learning the business context, especially identity and access management, behind the data you move.
