About the Role :

We are seeking a talented and motivated, best-in-class Senior Data Engineer. This role presents an exciting opportunity to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment within a rapidly growing team, with abundant prospects for career advancement.

Sezzle is growing; our data generation and consumption is growing with us at an increasing scale. Data is extremely valuable, and we want to empower the business, the engineers, and the rest of the organization to be able to analyze large volumes of it quickly and efficiently.

Sezzle is a heavy consumer of Redshift, leveraging AWS DMS, DBT-based Transformations, and similar tooling to populate a rapidly growing data lake that supports multiple data warehouses for other business units. It's scaled well with us so far, and we're looking to continue improving it, but we also want to step into new tooling and technologies. What you'll do :

• Design, build, and optimize large-scale, high-performance data pipelines to support analytics, product insights, and operational workflows.
• Architect and evolve Sezzle's data ecosystem, driving improvements in reliability, scalability, and efficiency.
• Lead development of ETL / ELT workflows using Redshift, DBT, AWS DMS, and related modern data tooling.
• Partner with cross-functional teams (engineering, analytics, product, finance, risk) to gather or adapt requirements and deliver robust, high-quality datasets.
• Evaluate and integrate new technologies, guiding the evolution of Sezzle's data stack and infrastructure.
• Optimize Redshift and warehouse performance, including query tuning, modeling improvements, and cost management.
