Sr. Data Engineer

Hologram is building the future of IoT connectivity, delivering internet access to millions of connected devices worldwide. We process over 5 billion transactions per month across our global infrastructure—this isn't just another app, it's the invisible backbone powering everything from fleet tracking to smart city infrastructure. We tackle challenges of scale, reliability, and performance that few companies face.

• →Database Design & Management: Design, build, and maintain databases that power Hologram's operations, with a focus on simplicity, reliability, and scalability
• →Pipeline Development: Build and maintain ETL pipelines that move and transform data reliably, with monitoring and alerts to catch breakages fast
• →Database Reconstruction & Simplification: Audit existing pipelines and data models, identify complexity, and refactor bad decisions into clean, maintainable solutions — incrementally improving what exists rather than starting from scratch.
• →Data Modeling & Transformation: Own and evolve our dbt models, ensuring data is clean, well-documented, and usable by people outside of engineering
• →Analytics & Reporting: Write expert SQL to surface insights across the business — from customer usage trends to operational performance
• →Business Intelligence: Build and maintain dashboards and reports in Sigma that give internal teams clear visibility into the metrics that matter

• Be the data authority: You’re the one who knows where the data lives, what it means, and how to make it trustworthy across the org
• Champion simplicity: You believe the best solution is usually the simplest one — and you bring that mindset to every model, query, and pipeline you touch.
• Enable decisions: You'll make sure the right people have the right information at the right time, turning data into a competitive advantage
• Work with imperfect systems: You'll meet systems where they are, build a deep understanding of them, and improve them steadily over time
• Build for reliability: You'll build pipelines that watch themselves, surfacing issues automatically so you can get ahead of problems before they ripple outward

• 5+ years in a data engineering or analytics engineering role
• Expert-level SQL, including clean, performant query writing and strong data modeling fundamentals
• Hands-on experience with dbt for data transformation and modeling, and Python for data processing
• Experience with a BI tool (Sigma, Looker, Tableau, or similar), including building and maintaining dashboards
• Experience with Snowflake or a similar columnar data warehouse
• Demonstrated ability to navigate complex, legacy environments and improve them over time
• A track record of prioritizing simplicity and delivering clean, maintainable solutions

• Experience with Fivetran or similar data integration tools
