Data Engineer I
Abre
Data Science
Posted on May 7, 2025
Abre is seeking an entry‑level Data Engineer to join our growing team. As a Data Engineer I at Abre, you’ll design and help build systems that move and shape school data. Because data is at the heart of everything we do, you’ll play a critical role on our product team—learning to own the stability, timeliness, and quality monitoring of the pipelines you touch. You’ll always be looking for ways to make data easier to use and our pipelines more efficient, under the guidance of senior engineers and product stakeholders.
Our Mission
Open learning communities by connecting what matters. Through consolidated solutions and meaningful connections, we ignite the aha moments that open the future for the whole child and the community.
Who We Are
Abre grew from a need. As classrooms filled with Chromebooks and students had more access to edtech, our founders noticed the software solutions used in their classrooms were messy. They faced countless logins, siloed data, and increasing confusion among different users. What was missing was simplicity and unification. So they created it.
Abre is quite literally made by educators. Our founders have years of experience in teaching and administrative leadership in K-12 education. We believe education is critical for the health of our society and have a genuine passion for helping educators.

- Exposure to ETL concepts and basic orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow, Dagster)
- Understanding of relational databases, data modeling fundamentals, and data warehousing concepts
