About this role

WHO WE ARE Zeta Global (NYSE: ZETA) is the AI-Powered Marketing Cloud that leverages advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and trillions of consumer signals to make it easier for marketers to acquire, grow, and retain customers more efficiently. Through the Zeta Marketing Platform (ZMP), our vision is to make sophisticated marketing simple by unifying identity, intelligence, and omnichannel activation into a single platform – powered by one of the industry’s largest proprietary databases and AI.

Our enterprise customers across multiple verticals are empowered to personalize experiences with consumers at an individual level across every channel, delivering better results for marketing programs. Zeta was founded in 2007 by David A. Steinberg and John Sculley and is headquartered in New York City with offices around the world. To learn more, go to www.zetaglobal.com . ROLE OVERVIEW Zeta Global is seeking a Senior Data Engineer to build reliable, scalable data pipelines and data products for a healthcare vertical.

You will be a hands-on engineer who turns complex healthcare and marketing datasets into trusted foundations for audience discovery, segmentation, activation, reporting, and measurement. Working closely with the engineering and product team, you will help implement the team's data architecture and engineering standards while owning significant parts of the delivery lifecycle. You will contribute to well-designed, production-ready systems—not define the overall architecture or technical roadmap alone.

Key Responsibilities Design, develop, test, deploy, and operate production-grade pipelines for healthcare, identity, audience, media-exposure, and campaign-performance data using Python, SQL, Airflow, S3, Snowflake, and EMR. Implement maintainable data models, transformations, governed views, and reusable datasets for provider identity, claims/Rx, NPI/HCP, media, brand, and connector data. Deliver data products that support HCP and patient/DTC audience discovery, segmentation, activation, measurement, and reporting.

Build Airflow workflows with clear dependencies, retries, alerting, data-quality checks, and operational runbooks; use EMR for large-scale enrichment, normalization, and other compute-intensive workloads. Write efficient SQL across Snowflake, Hive, and Athena, adapting to platform-specific syntax and query behavior. Partner with product, analytics, data science, and platform teams to translate business and healthcare requirements into resilient technical solutions.
