Box Box · Enterprise · Warsaw, Poland · Cloud Engineering - R&D

Data Engineer II, FinOps at Box, focusing on building and maintaining data pipelines for FinOps insights and SRE outcomes. The role involves partnering with data science and FinOps experts, using GCP services, and implementing data quality checks.

  2. Build and maintain ETL/ELT pipelines that ingest, clean, transform, and aggregate data from disparate systems using GCP services.
  3. Implement and monitor data quality checks, testing, and observability to ensure trustworthy, timely datasets and dashboards.
  4. Support incident triage for pipelines; troubleshoot issues, document root causes, and implement fixes with guidance as needed.
  5. Develop and maintain user-facing data assets (e.g., curated tables, views, Looker/BI dashboards) for cloud cost and operational reporting.
