Procore Technologies

Principal Data Engineer

Austin, TX

What if you could use your technology skills to develop a product that impacts the way communities’ hospitals, homes, sports stadiums, and schools across the world are built? Construction impacts the lives of nearly everyone in the world, and yet it’s also one of the world’s least digitized industries, not to mention one of the most dangerous. That’s why we’re looking for a talented Principal Data Engineer to join Procore’s journey to revolutionize a historically underserved industry.

As a Principal Data Engineer on our Data Engineering team, you’ll drive solutions to wide-ranging data engineering and infrastructure challenges for product and internal operations. You’ll partner with a group of highly skilled developers, engineers, architects, and data scientists to drive strategy, provide technical leadership, and collaborate on defining best practices around data engineering.
