Data Quality Engineer

About Us

Jupiter is the global market leader in analytics for resilience planning and enterprise climate risk management. We are led by pioneers in data, climate, and earth and ocean sciences, as well as technology, risk management, company building, and public policy. Our climate risk modeling solutions save lives and mitigate potentially catastrophic impacts inflicted by hurricanes, floods, heat waves, wildfires, drought, and other extreme weather events on homes, businesses, infrastructure, food and water supplies, and entire economies.

Jupiter is also committed to the world community. Through our Jupiter Promise initiative we provide services to under-resourced countries and communities to promote sound decision making while including the potential impacts of climate change. Employees are encouraged to provide their expertise to various programs under the Jupiter Promise initiative.

Jupiter is bringing diversity to prepare a diverse planet for our changing climate. Jupiter was founded on the principle that with the right approaches and the right team, we can prepare Earth’s economies to meet the challenges associated with climate change. The world is a diverse place; a diverse workforce in an inclusive environment is essential to meet our goals. We go forward together.

This role is part of a cross-functional team that includes team members from Engineering, Product, and Solutions to deliver on product launches and iterations. The Data Quality Engineer will own the integrity, validation, and reliability of the data pipelines that power the product, working directly with external data vendors to ensure the data feeding the product is accurate, timely, and fit for purpose.

What You Will Do

• Design and execute frameworks for data quality assurance and validation
• Collaborate across the organization to implement new features, support internal stakeholders, and investigate and improve data infrastructure.
• Partner with the Sr. Engineer, Quantitative Modeler, and Solutions Architect to ensure data feeding the product and financial models is validated and launch-ready
• Participate in stand-ups and other milestone meetings to maintain momentum and alignment across the team.
• Serve as the data quality checkpoint between vendor data ingestion and product delivery, catching issues before they surface downstream
• Establish data quality monitoring and documentation to support the pipeline post-launch
• Surface data quality risks and vendor issues to the Director of Engineering in time to inform launch decisions
• Manage external data vendor relationships and ensure ongoing data quality and validation

What You Will Need

• Python coding for production systems (modular code, not jupyter notebooks)
• Git workflow and collaborative code review
• Docker images and container build tooling
• Data validation and verification pipeline design, including automated testing
• Data quality assessment and solution feasibility analysis
• Data exploration and engineering tools: pandas, SQL, and similar
• DAG-based ETL orchestration (Prefect or similar)
• AWS, especially S3

Jupiter’s Tech Stack

• Prefect workflow jobs and ETL
• Python (with heavy use of Pydantic and pytest)
• Snowflake and Postgresql SQL
• Temporal durable execution engine

What Sets You Apart

• 3+ years of experience in data engineering, data quality, or analytics engineering roles
• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, statistics, or a related field. Equivalent practical experience also considered.
• Experience managing or coordinating with external data vendors, including data quality troubleshooting
• Experience working in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment, ideally supporting a product launch or similar high-stakes delivery
• Experience partnering with quantitative or financial roles (e.g., financial modeling, data science) or experience in climate tech strongly considered.
