We are looking for data engineers and technical leaders who don't just build pipelines and create dashboards—they design systems that solve real business challenges and influence key strategic decisions for our clients.

At Torq, you'll join a collaborative team that takes on complex, high-impact projects. You'll guide clients through the full data lifecycle—from raw ingestion to advanced analytics—and help them unlock the full potential of their data ecosystem.

While every project we work on is different, below is a high-level overview of some of the responsibilities / hats you may wear :

• Build strong relationships with data consumers to understand usage patterns and design intuitive, scalable data models.
• Design, develop, and deliver high-quality data pipelines that align with privacy, governance, and performance best practices.
• Build both real-time and batch data integrations from a variety of source systems into cloud-based data lakes and warehouses.
• Develop and maintain ETL / ELT processes and tools to support both streaming and offline analytics.
• Define and implement key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure the efficiency, quality, and reliability of data engineering processes.
• Participate in code reviews, promoting clean, maintainable, and well-documented code aligned with engineering best practices.
• Create and maintain data definitions and metadata consistent with data management standards.
• Provide operational support for data integration and transformation workflows in production environments.

What You Bring to the Table

When you join our team, you're a consultant first. This means there are core skills we expect out of each of our team members. These include :

Tools like : Python, SQL, Apache Airflow, dbt, Kafka, Terraform, etc.

Ex : PowerBI, Tableau, Looker, or similar tools

In addition, each one of our consultants brings a unique and valuable toolbox of skills with them specific to their practice. Below are some examples of skills we are always looking to add to the team (don't worry – we don't expect you to have all of them, but they are always a plus!) :

Benefits and Other Fun Stuff :

We ask our consultants to be superstars, so we treat them like it. Even better, our perks are designed for employees by our employees. We do this because we believe in delivering a compelling benefits package that puts you at the heart of our rewards.
