Job Description

The modern world runs on the Internet, and the Internet cannot exist without its underlying infrastructure. Meraki makes setting up, managing, and maintaining that infrastructure easier than it has ever been before. Meraki enables connectivity everywhere from neighborhood cafes to renowned universities to global hospitality groups operating thousands of sites. And Meraki's hardware organization is responsible for building the physical devices that get people online.

Meraki is looking for a Senior Data Engineer to join Cisco Wireless & Meraki Hardware’s Analytics and Data Science Team. As a Data Engineer, you will be a key partner in Meraki’s hardware analytics ecosystem and at the center of our data. You will own the data tables and ETLs that power key operations and decisions for hardware engineering teams. To do so, you’ll work directly with external companies we partner with to build and expand on data pipelines that allow for the transfer of vital data between companies. As part of this role, you will also develop relationships across engineering teams such as quality, operations, and manufacturing at Meraki.

Ideal candidates will have strong communication skills, an analytical mindset, excellent organizational skills, and a bias to action. You don't wait for change - you embody the change you want to see in the world!

Cisco believes that the quality of our product is dependent on the quality of our employees. We place a high value on nurturing the growth and development of everyone on our team. We foster an open and supportive workplace where everybody is given the opportunity to succeed.

EXAMPLE PROJECTS:

• A new data error has appeared in our data and caused the daily pipeline run to fail. Identify and resolve the issue, and then build a test to check for similar issues going forward. What can be done to prevent this issue from happening again?
• A manufacturing partner is opening up a new factory site. Work with the team at the partner company to expand our pipeline to add data from this new site to our systems.
• A stakeholder is requesting that a new data source be added to our platform. Take point in bringing that new source into the team's core data tables: understand how the new data relates and connects to the existing data, write the scripts to bring them together, and build relevant tests to check the integrity of the data on an ongoing basis.

REQUIREMENTS & QUALIFICATIONS:

• 5+ years experience with SQL
• 3+ years experience with Python
• 2+ years experience with data visualization tools (e.g. Tableau)
• 1+ year experience working with core statistical concepts (e.g. correlation, causation, regression analysis)
• Experience with spreadsheets/Microsoft Excel
• Ability to take initiative and work autonomously
• Strong analytical and critical thinking skills
• Strong communication skills

For non-sales roles the hiring ranges reflect base salary only; employees are also eligible to receive annual bonuses. Hiring ranges for sales positions include base and incentive compensation target. Individual pay is determined by the candidate's hiring location and additional factors, including but not limited to skillset, experience, and relevant education, certifications, or training. Applicants may not be eligible for the full salary range based on their U.S. hiring location.

Employees on sales plans earn performance-based incentive pay on top of their base salary, which is split between quota and non-quota components. For quota-based incentive pay, Cisco pays at the standard rate of 1% of incentive target for each 1% revenue attainment against the quota up to 100%. Once performance exceeds 100% quota attainment, incentive rates may increase up to five times the standard rate with no cap on incentive compensation. For non-quota-based sales performance elements such as strategic sales objectives, Cisco may pay up to 125% of target. Cisco sales plans do not have a minimum threshold of performance for sales incentive compensation to be paid.
