Hi! 👋 I’m Tara, BI Manager at WeTravel, based in the US 🇺🇸 I work closely with teams across Product, Finance, Sales, and Operations, and data sits at the center of almost everything we do. As WeTravel continues to grow globally, the complexity and importance of our data grows with it.

We’re looking for a curious, impact-driven Data Engineer to help us scale our data platform and make sure teams across the company can rely on clean, trustworthy, well-modeled data to do their best work.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building reliable systems, digging into messy data, and improving the foundations that analytics and decision-making depend on.

About WeTravel

WeTravel is building the leading booking and payments platform for group travel and multi-day tour operators.

Travel organizers around the world use WeTravel to create trip proposals, manage bookings, and securely process payments, without relying on spreadsheets, emails, or fragmented tools. Our platform helps them focus on what matters most: creating meaningful travel experiences.

As WeTravel grows, data plays a critical role in how we understand our product, support our customers, and make better decisions across the business. From payments and revenue to product usage and subscriptions, reliable data is essential to everything we do.

What’s the role

This Data Engineer role sits at the intersection of engineering and analytics, with a strong focus on data infrastructure, pipelines, and reliability.

You’ll work alongside our existing Data Engineer to design, build, and maintain the systems that move data from raw sources into our data warehouse, where it can be safely used by Analytics, Product, Finance, and Go-To-Market teams.

This is not an analytics or reporting role. Your primary responsibility is to ensure that data is accurate, available, and scalable, so others can confidently use it downstream.

What you’ll do day-to-day

• Design, build, and maintain scalable ELT/ETL pipelines ingesting data from product databases, third-party tools, and external partners

• Own and evolve WeTravel’s data warehouse and data models to support analytics, dashboards, and downstream use cases

• Ensure data quality, reliability, and observability through testing, monitoring, documentation, and proactive issue detection

• Support analytics and BI use cases related to subscriptions, payments, revenue, churn, and cohort analysis by delivering clean, well-structured data

• Optimize data performance, cost, and scalability as data volume and complexity grow

• Establish and promote best practices for data modeling, naming conventions, and governance

• Work closely with Analytics, Product, Finance, and Engineering teams to translate data needs into durable, maintainable solutions

Work is prioritized through a centralized process, so you can focus on execution and reliability rather than ad-hoc stakeholder requests.

How we work

Our data team balances ownership with collaboration.

You’ll have autonomy to design and improve data infrastructure, while working closely with BI, Analytics, and Engineering partners to solve real business problems. We operate in bi-weekly sprints, prioritize work intentionally, and focus on building systems that are resilient and easy to maintain.

We care deeply about doing things the right way: clean data models, thoughtful documentation, and pipelines teams can trust. Your work will be visible, impactful, and used daily across the company.

We’re a growing team, still figuring things out, and we value people who are comfortable with that ambiguity and enjoy improving systems over time.
