- Continuously improve our standard of engineering excellence by implementing best practices for data architecture, testing, pipeline reliability, and documentation
What you Bring to the Table
- 8+ years in data engineering or data platform roles, with experience developing senior/staff-level engineers
- You have deep experience with cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, and driving efficiency improvements
- You know how to say no without burning bridges
- You think strategically about team design and how to staff versus enable skillsets across the data organization.
