Principal Data Engineer

OverviewPRINCIPAL DATA ENGINEER, Mexico CityAbout the Role : We're building the product data platform that will power Salesforce's next era of agentic intelligence — delivering smarter, adaptive, and self-optimizing product experiences.As a Full-Stack Data Engineer, you'll design and build scalable systems that process hundreds of thousands of context-rich product signals.

These signals fuel analytics, customer-facing products, ML models, and autonomous agents.

You'll work on : Near real-time and batch telemetry pipelines for trusted signal captureSemantic layers and data products for reusable insightsProgrammatic discovery via metadata, MCP, and knowledge graphsThis isn't a typical data engineering role.

We're looking for creative, systems-minded engineers working outside of the "data engineer" box, fluent in both data and AI, and excited to navigate ambiguity, cross boundaries, and drive real impact.What You'll DoBuild and scale fault tolerant batch and streaming data pipelines using Spark, Trino, Flink, Kafka, DBTDesign programmatic consumption layers to make product signals easy to define, discover, and reuseApply software engineering best practices to data systems : testing, CI / CD, observabilityEvolve systems to support not just human analysis, but autonomous agent reasoningContribute to a trusted data foundation powering decisions, AI agents, and adaptive productsCollaborate across orgs with telemetry engineers, product leaders, data scientists, and AI buildersWhat We're Looking For8+ years of experience in data engineering, with strong software engineering fundamentalsExpertise with big data frameworks : Spark, Trino / Presto, DBT, SnowflakeExperience with streaming systems like Flink and Kafka, incl.

distribution strategy (topics & partitions)Solid understanding of semantic layers, data modeling, and metrics systemsExperience with cloud infrastructure, particularly AWS (e.g., S3, EMR, ECS, IAM), ContainerizationBonus : fluency in AI data engineering patterns and tools like MCPBonus : experience with knowledge graphs and modern metadata systemsStrong communicator and collaborator — comfortable working across teams and domainsCurious, pragmatic, and impact-driven mindsetWhy Join UsHelp shape how Salesforce leads the digital labor revolution.

You'll be at the heart of transforming raw product signals into intelligent decisions — for everyone from engineers to sales reps to AI agents.

If you're excited to design resilient, trusted, and intelligent systems at scale, we'd love to hear from you.
