We're looking for a Senior Data Engineer to join our growing engineering team. In this role, you’ll lead the end-to-end development of new integrations into our platform — powering the insights that help secure our customers’ most critical SaaS environments.

About the Role

As a Senior Data Engineer, you’ll:

• Build robust, scalable connectors to SaaS platforms (e.g., Microsoft 365, Workday, Salesforce) to extract data on users, roles, permissions, and configuration
• Design and maintain data pipelines that normalize and transform raw SaaS data into our unified security posture model
• Collaborate with platform and security engineers to shape how we build, deploy, and scale integrations across hundreds of enterprise SaaS platforms.
• Debug and improve production data pipelines, resolving discrepancies and improving performance, accuracy, and resilience

What’s in It for You

• Have immediate impact — your work directly improves how some of the world’s top companies secure their SaaS estates
• Silicon Valley meets Manchester — experience the pace and excitement of the Valley whilst remaining UK based.
• Advance your SaaS security expertise — gain hands-on experience with identity models, access permissions, and posture assessment across platforms like Microsoft 365, Okta, and Salesforce

Required Skills & Experience

• Highly experienced in using Python and SQL for data retrieval, transformation, and analysis
• Demonstrated experience extracting and normalizing data from different types of APIs, including complex/non-standard authentication flows
• Strong debugging skills for production data pipelines, including data discrepancies, edge cases, and performance issues
• Comfortable working with and transforming nested, semi-structured formats such as JSON, XML, and CSV into analysis-ready outputs
• Minimum 4 years in a data engineering or data-focused software engineering role

Desirable Experience

• Hands-on experience with APIs from major SaaS platforms (e.g., Office 365, Salesforce, Workday, Oracle, SAP)
• Familiarity with our core data stack: DuckDB, Dagster, Postgres, Kafka, DBT, EKS, and Databricks
• Understanding of Identity and Access Management (IAM) concepts and APIs from providers like Okta, Entra ID, Ping
• Exposure to AI-enhanced low-code tools like Microsoft Copilot or Salesforce Agentforce
