Are you intrigued by the thought of disrupting a trillion dollar industry through technology? At Opendoor, we’re on a mission to make it simple to buy and sell homes. The traditional process is broken, with an average home taking over 90 days to sell and costing thousands of dollars. We empower everyone with the freedom to move by making buying and selling a home stress-free and instant. We’ve built an exceptional team, seen strong growth, served over 85,000 customers and recently went public! The coming years present a tremendous opportunity for innovation as we explore new frontiers and scale nationwide.

Opendoor’s entire business is run on data – we use data to power our proprietary pricing models, make critical business decisions, and understand our engineering systems. As a senior software engineer on our analytics team, you will set the technical direction for how we build and continuously iterate on our analytics platform to enable a culture of learning. As Opendoor continues to use data to buy and sell homes, you will ensure that we have data integrity and systematic monitoring in place to ensure we make the right decisions. Additionally, as you work with others to help determine key drivers of business performance, you will lead our thinking on how to make this knowledge accessible so our users can focus on the right problems and rapidly evaluate solutions to them.

As our Sr Software Engineer - Data Platform, you will:

• Developing and maintaining scalable data pipelines and building out new integrations with external data sources.
• Implementing systems to quantify and monitor data availability, quality, and stability.
• Partnering with data scientists and product engineers to design our analytical data models and ensure consistent reporting of company metrics.
• Performing root cause analysis on data logging and ingestion processes to identify opportunities to improve instrumentation and observability.
• Working with product managers and business analysts to build systems for data exploration and consumption.
• Ensuring that all data components are designed and implemented in compliance with our information security and data privacy requirements.
• Applying expert understanding of data processing technologies to evaluate design tradeoffs.
• Shaping the future of data engineering by establishing best practices and improving what we do and how we do it.

We are looking for teammates who have:

• BS or MS degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
• Strong programming skills, preferably in Python and SQL.
• 5+ years of experience working with data pipelines, warehouses, and analytics.
• Proficiency with schema design and data modeling.
• Fluency with workflow management tools, like Airflow or dbt.
• Experience with modern data warehouses, like Snowflake or BigQuery.
• Familiarity with container platforms, like Docker or Terraform.
• Ability to understand the needs of stakeholders, define business requirements, and architect systems that will scale and extend to accommodate them over time.
• History of independently leading cross-functional projects and prioritizing work based on business impact.
• Expertise breaking down complex problems, documenting solutions, and sequencing work to make iterative improvements

Bonus points:

• Love delighting customers with honest, transparent products and experiences.
• Experience working with AWS, microservice architecture, Python/Go/Scala, Kubernetes
