If you’ve been looking to join a fast-growing startup with a bold vision of a world where doing good is baked into everything we do, then you’ve found the right place!

Backed by General Catalyst, the same investors behind Stripe and Airbnb, we’re building something truly extraordinary!

Our Mission

Our mission at Goodstack is to revolutionize how the world does good 🌎.

As a Series A social impact startup, we power global change through technology. We enable companies to seamlessly integrate positive impact into what they do through a unified platform while supporting nonprofits in gaining access to cutting-edge technology and finding new funding streams.

Global brands, including Google, TikTok, LinkedIn, HSBC, OpenAI, Atlassian and Twilio - as well as thousands of nonprofits, including the Red Cross, Cancer Research, and Oxfam - use Goodstack to make a difference.

We are on a rapid growth trajectory. Just in 2024, we facilitated $3 billion in donations to good causes. But this is just the beginning. We want to become the world's leading platform that facilitates donations to the most individual nonprofits in the world.

To achieve this, we need incredible people to help us on our journey - we need you 🫵

Join us as a Senior Data Engineer at Goodstack!

• Design, build, and maintain robust, scalable data pipelines to power both analytics and product features.

• Contribute to the dbt analytics layer: establish best practices, implement core models, and ensure business metrics are consistent and trustworthy.

• Shape and maintain our data platform infrastructure (Terraform + Kubernetes), ensuring high availability, scalability, and observability.

• Lead the adoption of data quality, governance, and monitoring frameworks to build confidence in data.

• Mentor other engineers and contribute to raising the bar on engineering standards across the team.

• Partner with product managers and business stakeholders to turn data into insights and product opportunities.

• Collaborate with the engineering team to embed data flows into product architecture.

• Work alongside infra/platform engineers to design cloud-native, cost-efficient systems.

After 3 months, success will look like:

• Reduced breakages in data pipelines and the subsequent context switching.

• Be up to speed on our managed data infrastructure.

• Documented standards for data modeling, orchestration, and testing adopted by the team.

This role is a perfect match for you if you have:

• 7+ years of professional experience in data engineering

• Deep expertise in SQL and Python, with proven experience building production-grade data pipelines.

• Hands-on experience with dbt in production environments, including modelling for analytics teams.

• Strong track record of working with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform) and container orchestration (Kubernetes).

• Familiarity with orchestration tools (Airflow, Dagster, Prefect).

• Ability to translate business problems into robust technical solutions.

Bonus if you have knowledge or love of:

• Data mesh concepts: decentralised ownership, domain-oriented pipelines, product-thinking with data.

• Streaming data systems (Kafka, Pulsar, Flink).

• Data observability, lineage, and governance tools.

• Experience scaling data teams in a startup environment.

• Passion for enabling a culture of self-serve analytics.
