Senior Data Engineer

at  Sendle

Sendle builds shipping that is good for the world. We help small businesses thrive by making parcel delivery simple, reliable, and affordable. We’re a B Corp and the first 100% carbon neutral delivery service in Australia, Canada, and the United States, where we harness major courier networks to create a delivery service that levels the playing field for small businesses.
We envision a world where small businesses can compete on a level playing field with the big guys. Sendle is a fast-growing business with bold ambitions and big dreams.
In the last few years, we’ve made huge strides towards our goal of becoming the largest SMB eCommerce courier in the world, moving from a single-country operation in Australia to a successful launch and operation in the US and Canada. We’ve also launched major partnerships with Vestiaire Collective, eBay, Shopify, and Etsy too!
But most importantly, we’re a bunch of good people doing good work. Wanna join us?
