Job description

Peregrine Advisors is a firm founded on a simple conviction: the best solutions come from the people closest to the problem, given real ownership and the tools to deliver. We are a data and technology innovation hub and a Benefit Corporation working at the center of the federal government's mission to deliver for client stakeholders and the US public, looking for highly motivated contributors who thrive when trusted to own a hard problem and equipped to deliver the solution.

Your first assignment

Your first assignment is to build the pipelines that move a federal agency's data from source to warehouse on Amazon Web Services (AWS): ingest, process, store, and keep it clean and trustworthy at scale. The work is real, hard, and it matters. It is also where you start, not the shape of your career here: we hire people, not seats, and we move our best to where the hardest problems are.

What you'll build

  • Ingest-process-store pipelines on AWS: Spark-based extract, transform, and load (ETL) with Glue, Amazon EMR, Lambda, and Step Functions, in Python and PySpark.
  • A data lake that feeds the warehouse: S3 design (Parquet, partitioning, lifecycle) into Redshift, with event orchestration, secrets and monitoring, and data quality, validation, and lineage built in.
  • In time, the firm itself: new capabilities, tools, and lines of business you help spin up.

Who you are

You are a data engineer who is serious about the craft and eager to go deeper. You care as much about whether the data is trustworthy as whether it arrives, and you do your best work alongside people who push you. You experiment, fail, learn, and repeat quickly. You would rather own an outcome than be handed a task.

What you bring

  • Hands-on data engineering on AWS: Spark ETL (Glue, EMR), Python and PySpark, and S3 data-lake design feeding a warehouse.
  • A data lake that feeds the warehouse: S3 design (Parquet, partitioning, lifecycle) into data storage tools like Postgres, Iceberg, or Redshift, with event orchestration, secrets and monitoring, and data quality, validation, and lineage built in.
  • The judgment to build in a regulated environment where accuracy and auditability are not optional.

What you'll need

U.S. citizenship (this initial engagement may be staffed by U.S. citizens only) and the ability to obtain a Public Trust determination. This is a hybrid role based in the Washington, DC metropolitan area, and it requires commuting into DC regularly. Everything else, the years, the certifications, the specific tools, we ask in the application and get into during the interview.

What we offer

Fully paid medical, dental, and vision; a matched 401(k) with immediate vesting; unlimited paid time off; and sponsored certifications. Beyond that, work worth your best years.

What we commit to

As a Benefit Corporation, our commitment runs three ways: real, measurable value for our clients; government that works better for the public; and a team that makes everyone in it better.

We hire people who want to help build the firm, not just work at it. If that is you, apply.

Peregrine Advisors is an equal opportunity employer.
