SOVOS. Senior Data Engineer. IT Operations/Information Security·Full-Time·Argentina.

Build your future with Sovos.

If you're seeking a career where innovation meets impact, you've come to the right place. As a global leader, Sovos is transforming tax compliance from a business requirement to a force for growth while revolutionizing how businesses navigate the ever-changing regulatory landscape.

At Sovos, we're dedicated to more than just solving compliance challenges -- we're committed to making a positive and lasting difference in everything we do. Our teams operate on the modern edge of digital technology, working not only to solve complex business challenges but also to enrich our personal, professional, and local communities.

Our purpose-built systems provide the tools you need to thrive in a world where governments demand increased visibility, faster reporting and greater control over business processes. Excited about the possibilities? So are we!

Don't worry if you don't check all the boxes -- apply anyway! We're focused on hiring the right people, not just the \"right\" resume. It's not about what you've done elsewhere; it's all about what you're capable of doing here.

The Role

At Sovos, we're building a world-class financial data platform to support a global tax compliance leader, and the Senior Data Engineer is the foundation it all runs on. In this role, you'll own the full pipeline stack: from ingestion through transformation, all the way to the finance-trusted, close-ready outputs that FP&A, Accounting, and leadership rely on to make critical decisions. You'll design and build the Snowflake architecture and dbt model infrastructure that underpins our US topline data chain, and you'll be the person the team counts on when something needs to be fixed before close — leveraging AI tools to enhance data quality, automate documentation, and enable intelligent query capabilities.

More Specifically, You Will

Design and build the Snowflake schema and dbt model architecture for the US topline data chain: Billing → ARR → Deferred Revenue → Rev Rec → Close Pack, with full test coverage and documentation.
Own pipeline reliability through financial close: monitor, alert on, and recover from failures; serve as the primary on-call escalation point to ensure data integrity when it matters most.
Establish data quality standards, dbt testing conventions, and Snowflake governance patterns (including row-level security and model freshness SLAs) for the broader team and AI consumers.
Write dbt YAML documentation — table descriptions, column definitions, and grain statements — as a first-class production deliverable, recognizing that documentation quality directly determines AI answer accuracy.
Partner with the Analytics Engineer on business-layer model design to ensure technical outputs map accurately to finance requirements and support both traditional BI and AI-driven use cases.
Extend the dbt model layer to cover OPEX, COGS, commissions, and ASC 340-40 capitalized software as scope grows, maintaining consistency and scalability.
Treat AI consumers as first-class stakeholders alongside finance teams, enabling real-time queries, hybrid retrieval strategies, and structured data access for intelligent agents.

What We're Looking For

5–8 years of experience in data engineering, with a track record of building and maintaining production pipelines and dbt projects at scale.
Advanced SQL skills (CTEs, window functions, LATERAL joins, performance tuning) and production dbt experience, including modular models, tests, documentation, and semantic metadata for both AI and BI consumers.
Snowflake proficiency: roles, warehouses, governance, masking policies, and row-level security — not just querying, but owning the environment.
Experience supporting financial close cycles, including on-call ownership of pipeline failures; fluency in the revenue data chain (Billing → ARR → Deferred Revenue → Rev Rec → Close Pack) and the ability to engage finance stakeholders directly on data discrepancies.
Strong communication skills: able to explain technical trade-offs to non-technical audiences and write documentation that finance analysts can use to validate outputs; comfort with AI‑assisted workflows and emerging AI integration patterns (such as Model Context Protocol or RAG architecture) is a plus.
Preferred experience includes integrating CRM/ERP systems (NetSuite, Salesforce), Python for pipeline scripting, cloud infrastructure (Azure or AWS), B2B SaaS metrics (ARR, GRR, NRR, churn), data governance practices (PII handling, access control, GDPR basics), and domain knowledge in compliance or tax technology.
Due to client contractual obligations, the successful candidate will be asked to clear a background check upon hire.

The Process

We believe in a transparent and comprehensive hiring process. Here's what you might expect:

Pre-Employment Assessment: Regionally specific assessments we use to mitigate bias and give every applicant a fair shot.
Video Interview: A chance to meet as many qualified applicants as possible and get to know you beyond your resume.
Meeting with a Recruiter: A conversation to talk through the role, your experience, and your goals.
Live Interviews with the Hiring Team: Meet the people you'll work with and dig into the day-to-day of the role.
