Job Description
Data Engineer - (Remote, Australia Only)
About Us: At Pivot Analytics, we don't just deliver Snowflake projects - we become the trusted data partner for CIOs and senior technology executives at billion-dollar companies.
We're their extended data team.
We build their data capability, train their internal teams, take accountability for outcomes, and form long-term strategic partnerships that last years, not months.
We punch well above our weight.
Major retail and FMCG companies trust us with their most critical data initiatives.
As a result, we've been recognised as a Snowflake Emerging Partner, and we're on track to become the best Snowflake implementation partner in Australia.
Our Stack: Snowflake, dbt, AWS, PowerBI, AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor)
What You're Actually Looking For: Our best hires all wanted three things:
To learn - from experienced people building enterprise-grade solutions
Modern tools and tech - working with Snowflake and the modern data stack at scale
A fun team - smart people who don't take themselves too seriously
If that resonates, keep reading.
The Opportunity
You've spent 2-3 years at a larger company building your foundations.
You know data engineering fundamentals, you can build pipelines, you understand dimensional modeling.
But you're ready for more responsibility and the chance to work on projects that actually matter to enterprise organisations.
Here's what growth looks like with us:
Initially: Contribute to client projects as part of our team, learning our approach to enterprise data engineering
As you demonstrate capability: Take technical lead on smaller projects while supporting larger initiatives
Longer term:



Lead major client engagements, mentor junior team members, and help define how we deliver world-class Snowflake implementations
You'll work alongside our experienced technical architect who will teach you not just how to build data pipelines, but how to build trusted, strategic data partnerships with C-level executives.
Real Impact
Our clients don't just want deliverables - they want partners who take accountability.
You'll:
Work directly with client teams (technical and business stakeholders)
Train and mentor their internal data teams
Own the success of the solutions we build together
Use modern approaches: medallion architecture, dbt, CI/CD, infrastructure as code
Leverage AI coding tools to deliver faster and better
What You Need to Bring
The foundations (non-negotiable):
2-3 years of data engineering experience at a structured organisation (ideally 500+ employees with established data teams)
Strong SQL skills - joins, CTEs, window functions, query optimisation
Dimensional modeling fundamentals - you understand star schemas, slowly changing dimensions, and why these patterns matter
Cloud data warehouse experience - Snowflake preferred, but other strong Cloud Data Warehouse experience works too
Exposure to dbt - we'll teach you our patterns, but you need the basics
Git fundamentals - branching,



pull requests, CI/CD concepts
The humility to say "I don't know" and the intelligence to learn quickly when shown
Snowflake certification or deep Snowflake knowledge
Experience with medallion architecture patterns
Experience using AI coding assistants productively
Client-facing experience or technical mentoring
The Cultural Fit
Are technically strong but humble about what they don't know
Can laugh at themselves and keep perspective
Communicate clearly with everyone from data analysts to CIOs
Learn quickly with minimal hand-holding
Take ownership and accountability seriously
Actually enjoy teaching others and seeing them grow
Are energised by working on complex problems for serious clients
Our Hiring Process
Cultural fit conversation - do we enjoy talking to you?
Would we want to work with you every day?
Technical assessment covering our stack and tools
We're looking for solid foundations and the right attitude.
We want people who know what they know and are honest about what they don't.
Why Pivot Analytics
Work with billion-dollar clients who trust us with their most significant data initiatives
Learn enterprise-grade data engineering from an experienced technical architect
Clear path from team contributor → technical lead → client engagement leader
Be part of building Australia's best Snowflake implementation partner
