About Branch
Branch is on a mission to empower workers with financial freedom by helping companies accelerate payments and providing working Americans with accessible, free financial services. We’re committed to building and delivering inclusive, transparent, and frictionless financial products.
Our goal of empowerment extends to our own employees. As a remote-first team, we value diverse opinions, clear communication, and collaborative innovation.
About the Role
Branch helps millions of workers get paid faster and manage their money better. Our data engineering team is responsible for the infrastructure driving critical processes including money movement, automated fraud response, and client reporting.

- Implement unit tests, monitoring, and alerting to maintain high data quality and reliability.
- Improve the observability and performance efficiency of existing data pipelines.
- Monitor production workflows, debug operational issues, and document root causes.
- Work closely with stakeholders to clarify requirements and validate assumptions.
- Contribute to design discussions and surface functional gaps early.
What We're Looking For
- 3+ years of Data Engineering experience.
- 3+ years of experience working with Airflow.
- Strong proficiency in Python and SQL.
- Working knowledge of our data stack: Snowflake, Airflow, dbt, and GCP.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field.
