About the Job

Requirements

A bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
At least 6 years of experience in data engineering, analytics engineering, data quality, or data QA automation at Senior or Staff level.
Production experience building automated data validation and quality gates, including validation at ingestion from devices and third-party APIs.
Experience with high-volume time-series, IoT, or event data, and a track record of root-cause analysis that led to permanent fixes.
Expert SQL and strong Python skills.
Experience with big data, Spark, lakehouse, or PostgreSQL platforms.
Experience with dbt tests, Soda or Deequ, and CI/CD for data.
AI power-user proficiency with copilots and agents.
Experience across embedded and cloud environments.

Responsibilities

Become the internal expert on data flow from initial ingestion to the landing zone, including telematics device configuration and data-transformation capabilities and limitations, as well as backend data normalization, validation, and enrichment flows.
Understand what data is ingested, how it is ingested, the business logic behind each data element, its product uses, and the downstream impact of changes.
Investigate data issues hands-on with SQL and Python, tracing them to the first bad record when a vehicle stops reporting, a feed becomes partial, or two sources disagree.
Apply a systematic root-cause method across device or firmware, ingestion, transformation, and model causes; own each issue from investigation through solution design, implementation, and permanent resolution, using AI and analytics tools such as Claude Code to accelerate the work.
Build automated data-validation suites in production and embed them as blocking gates in pipelines and CI/CD.
Own freshness, latency, volume, and anomaly monitoring per source and fleet; run quality scorecards with SLAs and a data-incident process.
Define data-quality requirements and acceptance criteria for new features, integrations, and model releases before build starts; establish data contracts with partners and device firmware owners.
Drive permanent fixes through teams the role does not manage, including R&D, platform, external partners, and data vendors, and communicate data quality in business terms to leadership and customer-facing teams.
Ensure data consistency across the Questar app's Fleet Health and Fleet Operations modules.
Extend data-quality coverage over time into the ML and GenAI pipeline, including model-input drift, preventing stale data from being shown as live, and preventing double-counting of overlapping signals.
Define and own data-quality KPIs, including automated-check coverage to the landing zone, time to detect and resolve incidents, freshness SLA attainment, and customer-reported data issues.

Desired Qualifications

Telematics or vehicle-data experience, including J1939 or OBD-II.
VIN data extraction experience.
ML data validation experience.
Experience with data privacy rules such as GDPR, and PII mapping and classification.
Experience with scale-up platform migrations.

Company Overview
Questar Auto Technologies is an AI-powered fleet intelligence company transforming vehicle health management for commercial fleets. Drawing on 15+ years of connected vehicle data, our AI monitors hundreds of thousands of vehicles across four continents and predicts component failures weeks before they happen. We process tens of trillions of data points per year from our own in-vehicle devices and third-party telematics platforms.

Position Overview
We are seeking a hands-on Data Quality Engineering Lead to own the correctness and reliability of the data behind every the telematics indicators, KPIs, Health Scores and AI recommendations our customers act on, consistently across the entire Questar platform, including Fleet Health and Fleet Operations.

The immediate priority is the ingestion path: from the Questar telematics device and third-party telematics ingest APIs to the entry point of the GenAI pipeline (the “landing zone”), across streaming and static data. Direct ownership ends at the landing zone; beyond it, the role requires end-to-end understanding of how this data flows through to what users see in the Questar app, so upstream quality translates into accurate customer-facing outputs. The goal is to actively improve data correctness, not just monitor and report on it.

Key Responsibilities
Data Investigation, Root-Cause Analysis & Resolution

Become the inside expert when it comes to the data flow from the initial ingest point to the “landing zone”, including the telematics device configuration, telematics device’s data transformation capabilities and limitations, back-end's data normalization, validation and enrichment flows.
Understand not only what data is ingested and how, but why: the business logic behind each data element, what it is used for across the product, and the downstream impact of any change, connecting the dots across the solution.
Investigate data issues hands-on with expert SQL and Python, down to the first bad record, when a vehicle stops reporting, a feed goes partial or two sources disagree.
Apply a systematic root-cause method (device/firmware vs. ingestion vs. transformation vs. model) and own each issue end-to-end, from investigation through solution design, implementation and permanent resolution, using AI and Analytics tools (e.g., Claude code) to move faster.

Automated Testing, Quality Gates & Observability

Build automated data validation suites in production and embed them as blocking gates in pipelines and CI/CD.
Own freshness, latency, volume and anomaly monitoring per source and per fleet; run quality scorecards with SLAs and a data incident process.

Data Quality Requirements & Cross-Team Ownership

Define data quality requirements and acceptance criteria for new features, integrations and model releases before build starts; set data contracts with partners and device firmware owners.
Drive permanent fixes through teams you don’t manage (R&D, platform, external partners, data vendors), and communicate data quality in business terms to leadership and customer-facing teams.
Ensure data consistency across Questar app modules (Fleet Health and Fleet Operations)
Over time, extend coverage into the ML and GenAI pipeline: model-input drift, stale data never shown as live, and no double-counting of overlapping signals.

KPIs & Data Quality Performance

Define and own data quality KPIs: automated-check coverage to "the landing zone”, time to detect and resolve incidents, freshness SLA attainment, and customer-reported data issues.

Qualifications
