Junior Data Engineer

In pursuit of Audubon's conservation mission, the Data & Technology team partners with programmatic and business teams across the organization to develop and deploy enterprise data systems and data-driven practices at the scale needed to achieve our ambitious goals. The Junior Data Engineer will play a key role in helping maintain and support software applications and data solutions within a modern-day data stack, using enterprise scale data resources to ensure that high quality data is available across the organization to support conservation and operational objectives and advance our mission for hemispheric level bird conservation.

A successful candidate will be familiar with a number of data engineering tools and methods, as well as exhibiting strong communication and time management skills. This team member will work closely with other software and data engineers and report to the Director, Data Engineering.

This is a hybrid position based in Audubon’s New York City or Washington, DC offices. We will also consider remote candidates within the United States.

Working closely with other Data team members and project stakeholders, the Junior Data Engineer will contribute to projects such as:

• Strengthening an enterprise data architecture and strategy that includes ELT, systems integration, governance, cataloging and quality control
• Supporting and improving operational data processes to ensure data quality and reduce technical debt in critical functional business areas such as finance and fundraising
• Improving inclusive outreach, membership growth and advocacy engagement among prospective and current Audubon members by bringing together disparate data sets from CRM systems, census, demographic, social media and web analytics data sources

This position is funded through December 2026.
