Senior Data Engineer, PickupXP

Описание вакансии

At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.

 Our mission depends on having a digital representation of the physical world - a map with all routing related (real-time) information. This is what makes Lyft different from many products: our products don’t just facilitate online interactions, they facilitate dynamic, real-world ones. Without mapping services, none of these real world interactions between people and transport can happen.

We are hiring a Senior Data Engineer to join our Pickup, Places and Search team within the Mapping organization that is responsible for building, enhancing and maintaining the Rider and Driver product for the Pickup/Drop off Experience. This team supports the backbone of Lyft’s search system, supporting millions of rides by helping our riders and drivers connect and reach their destination. Our focus is to ensure the pickup/dropoff experience is seamless by enhancing guidance and routing as well as the rider experience. Additionally the team uses map data and other signals to create new product experiences in collaboration with teams across Lyft. This team has a history of enabling rich and creative features that directly influence the product for all of our users. We constantly innovate and incorporate cutting-edge technologies to make the lives of our community more enriched.

In this role, you'll collaborate with other engineering teams, product, data science, analytics, and operations on programs that empower us to iterate quickly, delighting our passengers and drivers with rideshare focused mapping experiences.

• Owner of core company data pipelines, responsible for scaling up data processing flow to meet the rapid data growth at Lyft

• Write well-crafted, well-tested, readable, maintainable code that prioritizes scalability and cost efficiency
• Conduct code reviews to ensure code quality standards and facilitate knowledge sharing
• Participate in on-call rotations to maintain high availability and reliability of workflows and data pipelines
• Collaborate with internal and external partners to remove blockers, provide support, and achieve results
• Help establish technical roadmaps and architectures based on technology and our business needs.
• Drive high-impact projects and innovate new solutions to provide the best mapping experience possible.
• Ship ML models at scale and low cost by focussing on systems / performance engineering.

Experience:

• 5+ years of relevant professional experience in data engineering or a related field
• Strong expertise in SQL and experience with Trino or Spark/PySpark
• Experience building and optimizing complex data models and pipelines with a strong understanding of ETL processes
• Expertise in data modeling and ETL, with experience developing and optimizing complex data models and pipelines
