Mercy Corps is a leading global organization powered by the belief that a better world is possible. In disaster, in hardship, in more than 40 countries around the world, we partner to put bold solutions into action — helping people triumph over adversity and build stronger communities from within. Now, and for the future.
Program Summary:
Mercy Corps’ Ukraine response meets the humanitarian needs of vulnerable Ukrainians and other conflict-affected people where they are: displaced inside Ukraine, refugees in Poland, and Moldova, or trapped behind frontlines. In 2022 and 2023, MC’s Ukraine response reached more than 2.5 million people with emergency cash, food, psychosocial support, and information campaigns. Notably, nearly all our programming has been delivered in partnership with Ukrainian civil society organizations through a granting program that matches humanitarian action with capacity strengthening, and with peer international NGOs through a consortium in Ukraine. Building on a substantial program addressing needs through MPCA/Cash in the Eastern and Southern regions of Ukraine, the portfolio is currently increasing with the Resilience programs focusing on supporting local value chains and SMEs.
General Position Summary:
The Data Engineer will be on the team supporting Microsoft Azure development within the data analysis and automation team. He/She will be responsible for building and iterating Azure data pipelines and databases, providing input into iterations on current Azure architecture design, and supporting response data analysts, Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) team, and other data engineers in using the Azure data systems for program decision-making.
In addition to these responsibilities, the Data Engineer will be tasked with automating processes across various systems, independently gathering all necessary requirements for automation, and ensuring the implementation aligns with organizational goals.

He/She will work collaboratively with Mercy Corps’ MEL and IT teams, as well as consortium partners, to coordinate architectural choices and data standards, translate policies (e.g. data protection policy) into pipeline structures, and train parties within Mercy Corps on how to understand and access the Azure systems.
