About Onit
We're redefining the future of legal operations through the power of AI. Our cutting-edge platform streamlines enterprise legal management, matter management, spend management and contract lifecycle processes, transforming manual workflows into intelligent, automated solutions.
We’re a team of innovators using AI at the core to help legal departments become faster, smarter, and more strategic. As we continue to grow and expand the capabilities of our new AI-centric platform, we’re looking for bold thinkers and builders who are excited to shape the next chapter of legal tech. If you're energized by meaningful work, love solving complex problems, and want to help modernize how legal teams operate, we’d love to meet you.
Key Responsibilities
Pipeline Development: Design, build, and maintain scalable batch and incremental pipelines in Databricks (PySpark, Spark SQL, Delta Lake) that ingest data from multiple source systems into a medallion (bronze/silver/gold) architecture.
Data Integration & Modelling: Implement the canonical data model defined with the Data Architect, so figures reconcile consistently across every product surface.
Entity Resolution: Build production pipelines that resolve duplicate and conflicting records across systems that were never designed to reconcile with one another.
Data Quality Engineering: Profile source data, implement automated data quality checks and expectations, and build monitoring and reporting so data quality stays continuously visible against defined targets.
Show the full description
Orchestration & Reliability: Orchestrate and monitor jobs with Databricks Workflows, optimise Spark performance and cost, and troubleshoot pipeline failures.
Governance & Privacy: Apply Unity Catalog governance, multi-tenant data isolation, and anonymisation and aggregation rules for pooled cross-customer analytics.
- Collaboration: Partner with the Data Scientist to productionise comparability models and data quality metrics, and with Engineering to expose curated data to the product.
- Required Skills
- 5+ years in data engineering or analytics engineering, building production data pipelines in a cloud environment.
Hands-on Databricks experience: PySpark and Spark SQL, Delta Lake, Databricks Workflows/Jobs, and Unity Catalog.
Strong SQL and Python, with solid data modelling skills (dimensional and/or canonical models) and experience with the lakehouse/medallion architecture.
Practical experience with deduplication, record linkage, or entity resolution, and with diagnosing and remediating data quality problems at scale.
Experience implementing automated data quality checks, pipeline monitoring, and Spark performance and cost optimisation.
Experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred), Git-based version control, and CI/CD for data pipelines.
Clear communication with data scientists, architects, and product stakeholders, including flagging data limitations early.
- Working proficiency with AI tools (e.g., Claude, Databricks Assistant, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate pipeline development, debugging, and documentation, with the judgment to validate AI-generated code before production use.
- Preferred Qualifications
- Databricks certification (e.g., Data Engineer Associate or Professional).
Experience with streaming or incremental ingestion (e.g., Auto Loader, Structured Streaming, Delta Live Tables).
Experience building data for benchmarks, scoring models, or analytics intended for external consumption.
Experience with anonymisation, aggregation thresholds, or privacy-preserving analytics.
Background in enterprise B2B SaaS or the legal technology domain.
