About this role
Marqeta Inc is hiring for a Senior Staff Software Engineer, Data Governance & Metadata Systems role (full-time). See the official posting for full details.
Requirements
- You have built a control plane or policy engine that applies authoritative governance decisions across an organization rather than leaving each team to re-implement them, and you operated it in production.
- You can explain what a failed check does to downstream consumers and backfills, because you have had to design that behavior in CI and in the write path.
- You treat the engineers and stewards who use your platform as customers, and you have driven adoption of something that constrained them without authority over them.
- You have decided what to build, extend, and buy on a platform with a multi-year arc, and can walk through a call you got wrong.
- You have built controls that generate their own evidence, rather than stitching evidence together for auditors after the fact.
- Deep in Python, proficient in Java, and fluent in infrastructure as code.
- 8+ years in backend or infrastructure engineering, including substantial recent work on metadata, data quality, governance, or developer platforms.
- National: 200,500 - 250,600
