Senior Data Engineer

DataSnipper is the driving force behind an intelligent automation platform that’s transforming the world of audit and finance.

Founded in 2017, DataSnipper has skyrocketed and is now OFFICIALLY the fastest-growing software company in the Netherlands according to Deloitte Fast50 and recently achieved Unicorn status in our latest funding round. With over 400.000 users in 125+ countries and a second base in the heart of New York City, DataSnipper is shaking things up. And we’re not stopping there. At DataSnipper, we’re always on the lookout for innovators who think outside of the box. New ideas aren’t just welcomed at DataSnipper–they’re essential.

The Data Platform team works across three areas, and this role sits closest to the first two:

Data Platform - reliable, scalable infrastructure that gets the right data to the right place

Internal Analytics - a self-service platform so every team can be data-informed without a ticket

Customer-facing Analytics - the dashboards and exports customers use to see the value they get from DataSnipper

Concretely, you'd be walking into: billions of usage events flowing from our Excel Add-in, web apps, and product backends through Azure Event Hubs into Snowflake; a dbt estate built on medallion principles and managed in dbt Cloud; Terraform-managed Snowflake and Azure infrastructure; and a set of product teams shipping AI agents faster than we can instrument them.

You will also find real, named open problems rather than a tidy platform - event capture mid-consolidation, multiple methods of user attribution, and a data quality layer that is designed but not yet built. We would rather tell you that up front.

Own the event ingestion architecture end to end - Azure Event Hub, Snowpipe, Fivetran, and our shared Python/TypeScript event client libraries

Build and operate dbt transformation pipelines that stay reliable as volume, source count, and model complexity grow

Define and enforce event contracts and schemas so product teams can instrument new features without silent breakage downstream

Build reverse ETL and activation paths that push modeled data back into the tools the business works in - HubSpot properties and rollups, MongoDB, Postgres, and GTM reporting

Evolve the core data models (event, user, license, company) that everything else depends on

Own Snowflake performance and cost, and keep the platform's tech debt, dependency, and compliance obligations (audit logging, vulnerability remediation, Vanta evidence) from accumulating

Integrate and model new data sources across the business - product backends, MongoDB, HubSpot, billing, and third-party tools

Build the guardrails and tooling that let product teams create events, models, and dashboards themselves

Contribute to the semantic / context layer so metrics have one agreed definition across BI tools, customer-facing dashboards, and LLM and agent consumers

Support the customer-facing analytics surfaces (in-product dashboards, standard and advanced data exports) with the aggregation and modeling work behind them

Improve documentation and definitions to the point where analysts, stakeholders, and AI agents can self-serve with confidence

Partner with Product, Engineering, CS, and GTM to turn vague data requests into scoped, well-defined work - and to push back when a request shouldn't become a pipeline

Experience with product analytics tooling (Mixpanel, RudderStack) and warehouse-native BI (Netspring/Optimizely Analytics, Omni, Embeddable, or similar)

Experience building data products for AI or agent consumption - semantic layers, metrics layers, MCP servers, or governed self-service access

Experience with Terraform, Docker, and governance at scale

Reverse ETL experience and familiarity with CRM data models (HubSpot, Salesforce) or customer success platforms

Exposure to B2B SaaS usage-based pricing and entitlement data, or to audit/fintech
