As a Senior Data Engineer in the Financial Systems team, you will play a crucial role in building and scaling the data platform that powers Epidemic Sound's financial backbone.

This focus is central to our broader strategy of accelerating the company’s transformation toward smarter, more scalable ways of working by embedding Agentic development and tooling at the core of our technical and financial operations. You'll work at the intersection of Tech and Finance, where the systems and data pipelines you build directly affect how reliably we ingest sales and settlement data, run financial reporting, and scale our data infrastructure as the company grows.
