Data Engineer
The Mission
Scale OrderYOYO’s data ecosystem into a true single source of truth that supports executive reporting, merchant insights, finance automation, and AI/ML use cases — built on our Azure-centric stack and evolving toward a Lakehouse and semantic layer direction.
Your Core Impact
Design the Lakehouse: Build and own our unified data lake foundations, focusing on scalable ingestion, lifecycle management, and optimised access patterns.
Build the Semantic Layer: Implement “metrics-as-code” so KPIs like GMV and CAC are defined once and trusted everywhere.
Engineer Robust Pipelines: Develop high-availability ETL/ELT flows across microservices, PSP/payment gateways, and CRM/Finance tools.
Enable Product Innovation: Partner with AI/ML engineers to deliver clean, feature-grade datasets powering merchant-facing insight products.
Operational Excellence: Retire redundant layers, optimise Azure costs, and implement rigorous data quality SLAs and lineage.
