Description
The Role
At TLA, we're proud to be consumer champions in the automotive space. We're constantly exploring smarter ways to connect people with the right cars — and that's where data engineering plays a key role.
You'll join a focused data team of 4 professionals (2 Data Scientists, 1 BI Developer, and yourself as Data Engineer), working collaboratively to deliver high-impact data solutions. As part of the team, you'll create data pipelines to extract diverse datasets from vehicle stock volumes to customer reviews and offers data in a timely, robust and efficient manner. We understand that great data forms the backbone of great data analysis, and as such the data engineer is crucial to the success of the data department overall.
TLA works with the modern data stack, utilising Snowflake for our data warehouse, dbt to transform data across our medallion architecture, and Apache Airflow for orchestration. Microsoft Azure is our choice of cloud provider for hosting infrastructure. Within the role you will be hands-on with all these exciting technologies.
Many datasets you extract will require web scraping, it’s important that you have some experience within this domain.
