Velir is an established mid-sized agency with a top-tier portfolio of clients, ranging from the world’s largest non-profits to Fortune 500 brands. As of 2023, Velir acquired Brooklyn Data Company, a premier data and analytics consultancy focused on leadership, process improvement, implementation, and advanced analytics.
At Velir, we believe people are our greatest asset. Our culture is built on a foundation of trust, collaboration, and continued improvement. We strive for excellence in everything we do, embracing challenges as opportunities for growth. Our success is driven by a shared passion for making a positive impact on our customers, our communities and each other. We are a remote first company that offers competitive pay and excellent benefits.
The Senior Data & Analytics Engineer will play a crucial role in helping our client organizations transform raw data into reliable, well-modeled assets that drive business decisions. This hybrid role bridges data engineering and analytics engineering — combining the infrastructure-building strengths of a data engineer with the transformation, modeling, and semantic layer expertise of an analytics engineer. Core responsibilities include Data Architecture Design, Data Modeling, ELT/ETL Development, Data Quality Assurance, and Scalability Optimization, with a strong emphasis on Databricks as the primary platform. Because our clients are mostly US-based organizations, we look for the ability to communicate with professional proficiency in English, verbally and in writing.
Data & Analytics Engineering Expertise: You are responsible for building and maintaining the infrastructure and transformation layers that support the storing, movement, and modeling of data — enabling analysts, AI agents, and business stakeholders to confidently consume, interpret and take action. You will operate across both the data engineering and analytics engineering layers of the data stack, owning pipeline development and maintenance, as well as designing and building the resultant data models.
Cross-Team Collaboration: You are responsible for collaborating with peers and other functional departments to develop and implement data strategies that support engagement goals and client needs.
Project Delivery: You are responsible for ensuring that data engineering and analytics engineering projects are delivered on time, within scope, and within budget.
