About the role :

Join Rokt as a Data Engineer on the Metrics team, you will architect the semantic and data layers that define how Rokt measures success. You’ll transform raw product and GTM event streams into trusted, governed, analytics-ready models; codify business logic into reusable metric definitions; and build proactive monitoring to keep our “single source of truth” healthy and reliable at scale. You’ll serve as metric steward for one or more business domains, owning the semantic layer and data models end-to-end

You’ll partner closely with engineers, product managers, data scientists, and GTM stakeholders across Rokt’s Research & Development organization to enable self-serve insights and consistent decision-making.

What You’ll Do

• Model data for trust & reuse : Build modular, tested transformations (e.g. in Spark / Python) that convert raw logs into canonical datasets and marts powering experimentation, product analytics, and executive reporting.
• Own the metrics layer : Design and maintain a governed catalog of metrics and dimensions (e.g.Datahub) with clear definitions, lineage, and versioning.
• Operate reliable pipelines : Orchestrate and harden batch / stream pipelines (e.g., Airflow / Kafka / Spark) with SLAs, backfills, and cost-aware performance tuning.
• Proactive data quality : Implement unit / integration tests, anomaly detection, and monitoring (e.g  Great Expectations / Monte Carlo / Bigeye) to catch metric drift and upstream integration issues before they reach users.
• Integration health visibility : Build dashboards / alerts for client conversion data health and integration metrics (e.g., EMQ, AQS), and drive root-cause analysis and remediation with partner teams.
• Enable self-serve analytics : Create intuitive dashboards and templates (e.g., Tableau) that expose the metric layer and unlock analysis for engineering, PM, and GTM users.
• Define logging standards : Partner with product / engineering to instrument event schemas and logging guidelines that improve downstream observability and data quality.
• Document & govern : Establish style guides, playbooks, and change-management processes for metric and model evolution (including deprecation and backfills).
• Raise the bar : Lead code reviews, mentor peers, and contribute to platform roadmaps across Rokt Research.
