Senior Software Engineer, Data Governance

О роли

The Data Governance function is pivotal in ensuring the integrity, trustworthiness, and effective management of Chime’s data assets. Our mission is to establish and operationalize data governance frameworks that not only meet compliance requirements, but actively enable high-confidence decision making across the company. As a Data Governance Engineer, you will develop and implement policies and tools for data quality, developer enablement, certified datasets, and governance automation - with a sharp focus on building trust signals and scorecards that help data consumers quickly understand and act on the reliability of Chime's data.

This is a hands-on engineering role. You will write production-quality code to build automation for governance and data quality processes using Terraform, Python (or similar languages), and contribute to internal libraries, frameworks, and orchestration workflows that enable scalable governance.

You will partner closely with data engineering, analytics, product engineering, and compliance teams to:

• Support Chime in data compliance and risk reduction initiatives
• Establish data quality as a product discipline
• Build trust signals and scorecards that make data reliability transparent and data context valuable for a variety of use cases
• Implement governance workflows upstream, where data are created
• Ensure data context and metadata are sufficient for downstream use cases, including AI applications

You will be involved in reviews of technical designs and implementation plans to provide guidance on appropriate development from a data governance and compliance perspective, acting as a trusted advisor to teams innovating at Chime. You will also be a strong advocate and leader for Artificial Intelligence tooling and adoption at Chime, bringing curiosity and a practical eye for where AI creates leverage in data governance workflows. This role is 40% strategic influence, 40% development and building, and 20% stakeholder management and support.

The base salary for this role and level of experience will begin at $160,000.00 and go up to $221,000.00. Full-time employees are also eligible for a bonus, competitive equity package, and benefits. The actual base salary offered may be higher, depending on your location, skills, qualifications, and experience.

In this role, you can expect to

• Build Data Trust Infrastructure: Design and implement trust scorecards, trust signals, and quality indicators that give data consumers real-time visibility into data reliability - and partner with producers upstream to embed quality checks at the source before issues propagate downstream.
• Drive Data Quality Strategy: Own and evolve Chime's data quality strategy end-to-end. Design and partner with engineering teams to implement data quality frameworks and monitoring systems that proactively identify, surface, and resolve data issues at scale.
• Develop and Implement Data Governance Policies: Create and enforce policies for data classification, quality, and lifecycle management, ensuring data integrity and compliance with SOX and other applicable regulatory standards.
• Enable the Data Catalog: Collaborate on the development, adoption, and enrichment of Chime's data catalog - improving discoverability, context richness (lineage, ownership, definitions, usage guidance), and the overall experience of working with Chime's data.
• Automate Governance Processes: Develop and deploy automation solutions for data governance tasks, such as metadata management, data lineage tracking, access controls, and quality remediation workflows.
• Champion SOX Compliance: Play an active role in Chime's SOX compliance efforts, ensuring that data governance practices, controls, and audit trails meet regulatory requirements and are well-documented.
• Lead AI Adoption for Data Governance: Serve as a leader and advocate for AI tooling within the data governance space - identifying opportunities to apply AI to automate governance workflows, improve data context, enhance trust scoring, and accelerate adoption of governance best practices across engineering teams.
• Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with data engineers, analysts, and compliance officers to align data governance initiatives with business needs and regulatory requirements.
