What you will need to succeed in this role:

  • 8+ years of hands-on experience in Data Engineering, building modern data stacks, central data warehouses, and high-throughput data pipelines.
  • A track record of technically leading and elevating small teams while remaining deeply hands-on.
  • Proven ability to design company-wide data architectures and act as the principal technical decision-maker for complex data systems.
  • Strong understanding of how to structure, model, and pipeline data specifically to support AI, machine learning, and advanced analytics adoption.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to partner with internal stakeholders to centralize and streamline all business data requests.
