Americas Engineering \& Data About the role We’re Building the Future of Real\-Time Merchant Analytics at Shopify! Looking for a Senior Software Streaming Pipelines Engineer and an Engineering Manager to join our team reimagining how merchant data flows through modern streaming architectures. This isn’t your typical ETL role – you’ll be crafting solutions that challenge conventional approaches to data processing at global scale. What makes this exciting? We’ve developed a declarative pipeline framework using Apache Beam, Google Cloud Dataflow, and ClickHouse that transforms how data engineers build streaming systems. Imagine YAML\-driven pipelines that eliminate boilerplate code, real\-time stream processing across multiple regions, and an architecture that makes complex data transformations feel effortless. You’ll work across multiple languages – Kotlin, Ruby, Python, and Rust – choosing the right tool for each challenge, alongside dbt for elegant data modelling and our custom framework that turns pipeline development into a configuration exercise rather than a coding marathon. The puzzle? Replacing entrenched batch systems with streaming\-first architecture while merchants never notice the transition. **You’ll tackle fascinating problems:** How do you handle late\-arriving data in distributed streams? What’s the most elegant approach to backfill terabytes while maintaining real\-time processing? How do you architect lightning\-fast real\-time modelling that seamlessly combines data from multiple tables? We embrace AI and LLMs to accelerate repetitive tasks, freeing you to focus on the creative problem\-solving that makes this work truly rewarding. If you love turning “impossible” requirements into beautiful solutions, this is your playground. About Shopify Opportunity is not evenly distributed. Shopify puts independence within reach for anyone with a dream to start a business. We propel entrepreneurs and enterprises to scale the heights of their potential. Since 2006, we’ve grown to over 8,300 employees and generated over $1 trillion in sales for millions of merchants in 175 countries. This is life\-defining work that directly impacts people’s lives as much as it transforms your own. This is putting the power of the few in the hands of the many, is a future with more voices rather than fewer, and is creating more choices instead of an elite option.
