Über diese Data Engineer Stelle bei Dentsu
Job Description:
Our mission is to Drive Business Performance. We use data to create personalized and connected experiences that deliver transformative business outcomes. Our role is to ensure our clients meet their quantifiable business goals every day, consistently, in every market. We are entirely focused on delivering better business results through optimization, creation and analysis across all digital platforms. Our scope ranges from recommending how to use content more effectively to optimizing daily media channel performance and maximizing visibility in eCommerce platforms.
We're looking for a Data Engineer with 3–5 years of hands-on experience to join our team. You'll own the ingestion, modelling, and delivery of data from the advertising platforms our clients run on — building reliable pipelines in a cloud data warehouse (BigQuery, Redshift, or Snowflake) that power reporting, analytics, and activation.
Accountabilities:
Design, build, and maintain production data pipelines in a cloud data warehouse — BigQuery, Redshift, or Snowflake — from ingestion through to analytics-ready models.
Develop and manage API and connector-based integrations with major advertising platforms: Google Ads, GA4, Meta, TikTok, DV360, Campaign Manager 360, LinkedIn Ads, and similar.
Model campaign, spend, and performance data into clean, well-documented datasets that media, analytics, and client-services teams can trust.
Monitor pipeline health inclusive of enabling taxonomy compliance, troubleshoot data discrepancies against platform UIs, and own the fix end-to-end.
Partner with analysts, strategists, and ad-ops to translate reporting and measurement needs into scalable data models.
Contribute to data quality, documentation, and engineering standards across the team.
Qualifications:
3–5 years of professional data engineering experience, including production deployments on a major cloud data warehouse such as BigQuery, Redshift, or Snowflake.
Strong SQL skills and solid Python (or equivalent) for pipeline development and transformation logic.
Demonstrated experience working with advertising platform data, pulling from platform APIs or connectors (e.g., Google Ads, GA4, Meta, TikTok, DV360) and reconciling it against platform reporting.
Understanding of advertising data concepts: impressions, clicks, conversions, attribution windows, UTM taxonomy, audience and cost data.
Experience with a workflow orchestrator (Airflow, Dagster, Prefect, or similar) and version control (Git).
Comfort working directly with non-technical stakeholders (media planners, analysts, and account leads) to scope and deliver.
Nice to have:
Experience with dbt for transformation and modelling.
Familiarity with Looker Studio, PowerBI, or similar for downstream BI enablement.
Exposure to marketing measurement work such as MMM, MTA, incrementality testing, or clean-room environments (Ads Data Hub, Meta Advanced Analytics, Amazon Marketing Cloud).
Experience with broader cloud platform services such as GCP (Cloud Functions, Pub/Sub, Dataflow), AWS (Lambda, S3, Glue), or Azure equivalents.
Exposure to Databricks or other lakehouse platforms for large-scale data processing.
Prior experience at a media agency, ad-tech vendor, or in-house marketing data team.
