From the employer
Cross Screen Media is founded by industry veterans and gives customers a new way to plan and execute video advertising campaigns. To achieve this, we need an amazing team. Here's where you come in…
We are looking to hire a Data Engineer with a strong work ethic and a passion for the fast-paced startup life. The ideal candidate doesn't just build pipelines — they think critically about how data should be modeled, how systems connect, and how to design for scale. You'll work alongside a senior data engineer and collaborate across a small, high-output team to shape the data layer behind our product, ScreenSolve. We're currently using tools and platforms like Python, Airflow, dbt, AWS and Snowflake.
This is a fully remote position. Face to face communication is important to us, so we have quarterly in-person team meetings at our office in Alexandria, VA. Additionally, we have biannual company offsites to give all of our employees time together in person.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and develop data pipelines, with an eye toward how they fit into the broader data architecture
- Make data modeling and schema design decisions — choosing the right structure for how data is stored, accessed, and extended
- Think beyond the immediate task: consider how today's integration point becomes tomorrow's platform surface area
- Deliver features rapidly using AI-assisted development tools (Claude Code, etc.)
- Contribute to definition of user stories
- Collaborate with other members of the team on development & integration
- Write unit tests and maintain high code quality, per both static code analysis & team standards
- Be available on a rotating schedule for production issues
Experience
- BS in Computer Science or equivalent
- 5+ years experience in software/data engineering
- Strong SQL skills
- Experience with ETL/ELT techniques
- Strong sense for data architecture — you can look at a set of requirements and reason about how data should be modeled, where it should live, and how schemas should be designed for clarity and reuse
- Experience with dbt
- Experience with Airflow or similar orchestration tools
- Experience with Snowflake or similar cloud data warehouses
- Experience working with AWS
- Unix/Linux fundamentals
- Nice to have: Experience with AI coding tools
- Nice to have: Exposure to ad tech concepts & terminology
What We Offer
- Competitive salary with high bonus potential
- Collaborative and creative atmosphere, with inspired leadership
- Career advancement opportunities

- Competitive 401K with company match to plan for the long term
