As an IT DataOps Data Engineer, you will help the DataOps team build the data transport, collection, and storage, and expose services that make data accessible to all of Gong’s business data platforms. We are seeking a Data Engineer to develop a scalable data platform. You'll own our core business data pipeline that powers Gong’s top-line metrics. You will also use data expertise to help evolve data models in several components of the data stack.
