Senior Data Engineer - Data & Insights Solutions
Apply Online
At Tyler Technologies, we exist to inspire and empower every public servant to address society's pressing issues. We do that by enabling data-driven leadership through connected data and shared insights.
Our data as a service platform and cloud-based solutions support the world’s most effective open and internal data sharing programs at every level of government. What we do matters. New York City, Virginia, the Department of Commerce, and 230+ other cities, states, counties and federal agencies use us to connect citizens and their internal teams with information that matters to their day to day life. The Data Engineering position is part of our cross-division Solution Development team, which develops data-driven analytical and transparency solutions. These solutions lower the barriers to insights and provide public servants unprecedented access to data in Tyler source systems that underpin many of the basic functions of governments including public safety, community development, and public administration.
We are looking for an experienced Senior Data Engineer. This person will work with internal partners, clients and developers to brainstorm and evaluate technical solutions, product integration opportunities and demonstrations. This role requires creative thinking, a deep curiosity and understanding of data models and usage, as well as empathy for partner/client challenges and pain points. This person needs to work hand-in-hand at a strategic level with their colleagues in Product Development, and other Tyler divisions as well as in other departments, around a specified set of targeted software partnerships, integrations, and solutions we are pursuing and incubating.
This is a technical role but also requires a diverse range of consultative and project management skills. The primary focus of this role is to collaborate with cross-divisional partners to design and implement data ingress strategies that support Data & Insights solutions. These solutions in turn enable public sector organizations to share data with their audiences, internal employees and other agencies. The work with partners includes full projects as well as proofs of concept. A proof of concept aligns Data & Insights solutions with a partner's vision, mission or program, which requires technical configuration, data transformation and solution creation.
