About
We're looking for passionate people to join us in our mission to democratize cannabis-or as we like to say, to
"Weed the People."
With a dialed-in grow operation and a bold new brand refresh, we're ready to dominate the MD/DC market-and have a little fun while we're at it.
Data Engineer
Our Data Engineer will be responsible for taking ownership of our analytical data infrastructure. This role sits at the intersection of data engineering and business intelligence, equally responsible for the technical implementation of data pipelines and the strategic work of helping the organization ask better questions of its data.

The essential functions include, but are not limited to the following:
Evaluate, onboard, and integrate internal and third-party data sources, designing reliable ingestion pipelines that align with OLAP best practices.
Design and maintain columnar data models, including schema architecture, materialized views, and ongoing migration management to support analytical performance at scale.
Write and optimize complex analytical SQL to support reporting, ad hoc analysis, and the development of reusable query layers consumed by applications and business intelligence tooling.
Establish and maintain data quality frameworks, data lineage documentation, and pipeline health monitoring to ensure the integrity and trustworthiness of data across the organization.
Partner with business and operations stakeholders to understand their analytical needs, validate that the right questions are being asked, and ensure the data exists and is structured to answer them.
Proactively identify trends, patterns, and opportunities within the data that surface insights leadership may not have known to pursue.
Build and maintain type-safe, performant query APIs that expose analytical data to applications, dashboards, and reporting layers.
Own the health, reliability, and observability of the analytical backend, ensuring consistent data quality, pipeline transparency, and infrastructure stability.
All other duties as necessary.

We ask that you have proficiency in TypeScript and/or Python in a data engineering context.

We ask that you have strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to bridge technical and non-technical perspectives.
