Why Mozilla?

Mozilla Corporation is the non-profit-backed technology company that has shaped the internet for the better over the last 25 years. We make pioneering brands like Firefox, the privacy-minded web browser, and Pocket, a service for keeping up with the best content online. Now, with more than 225 million people around the world using our products each month, we’re shaping the next 25 years of technology.

Along with 60,000+ volunteer contributors and collaborators all over the world, Mozillians design, build and distribute open-source software that enables people to enjoy the internet on their terms. 

About the Team & Role

Now more than ever, the Internet is a utility that facilitates modern life. At Mozilla, we take this to heart, striving to build products that keep the Internet open, accessible, and secure for everyone. We handle terabytes of data every day from millions of users to guide our decision-making processes. We need your help to enable the future of Mozilla in a way that makes us proud!

As a Data Engineer at Mozilla, your primary area of focus will be on our Analytics Engineering team. This team focuses on modeling our data so that the rest of Mozilla has access to it, in the appropriate format, when they need it, to help them make data informed decisions. This team is also tasked with helping to maintain and make improvements to our data platform. Some recent improvements include introducing a data catalog, building in data quality checks among others. Check out the Data@Mozilla blog for more details on some of our work. You will:

• work with other data engineers to design and maintain scalable data models and ETL pipelines.
• help design, build, and improve the infrastructure for ingesting, storing, and transforming data at a scale of tens of terabytes per day.

• work with data scientists to answer questions and guide product decisions.

• Ability to work collaboratively with a distributed team.
