We are seeking an experienced data engineer to design and implement a robust real-time data pipeline that measures and reports on the social impact of our initiatives. This project aims to leverage cutting-edge data technologies to provide actionable insights that drive strategic decision-making and enhance transparency for stakeholders.

📋Project Details

As a leading social enterprise, our mission is to maximize the positive impact of our programs on communities worldwide. To achieve this, we need to develop a comprehensive real-time data pipeline that can aggregate, process, and visualize impact metrics across various initiatives. The project involves creating a data mesh architecture to decentralize data ownership and facilitate cross-functional collaboration. We plan to utilize technologies such as Apache Kafka for event streaming, Apache Spark for scalable data processing, and Airflow for orchestrating complex workflows. Our analytics platform will be built on Snowflake and BigQuery for efficient storage and querying, with transformation capabilities powered by dbt. The ultimate goal is to enable real-time analytics and monitoring of key performance indicators (KPIs) to ensure our efforts align with organizational objectives and stakeholder expectations. The successful candidate will work closely with our data scientists and program managers to ensure the pipeline meets all technical and operational requirements.

Requirements

  • Proven experience with real-time data processing
  • Familiarity with data mesh architecture
  • Strong skills in data pipeline development

📊Business Analysis

🎯Target Audience

Policy makers, donors, partners, and internal program managers interested in social impact data

⚠️Problem Statement

Our current data systems cannot provide real-time insights needed to measure the ongoing social impact of our programs, leading to delays in decision-making and reduced transparency for stakeholders.

💰Payment Readiness

Donors and partners are increasingly focused on measurable results and transparency, driving the need for real-time data solutions to enhance funding decisions and ensure accountability.

🚨Consequences

Without this solution, we risk losing donor confidence, decreasing program funding, and failing to respond effectively to the needs of the communities we serve.

🔍Market Alternatives

Existing solutions involve manual data collection and delayed reporting, which are inefficient and prone to errors, limiting our ability to respond quickly to environmental and programmatic changes.

Unique Selling Proposition

Our solution offers a unique combination of real-time data processing and decentralized data governance, enabling more agile and informed decision-making at all organizational levels.

📈Customer Acquisition Strategy

Our strategy involves leveraging existing relationships with funders and partners, highlighting the enhanced transparency and accountability our new data capabilities provide, and engaging in targeted outreach to showcase the impact of our programs through improved analytics.
