Responsibilities

  • Lead a team of data engineers and engineering managers building large-scale, real-time data pipelines in Spark
  • Partner with data scientists, analysts, and business stakeholders to turn business requirements into data products the team builds against
  • Represent Data Engineering in cross-functional and executive planning, building alignment across engineering, product, and business leaders
  • Set the architectural direction and standards for how data moves across platforms, from streaming ingestion through ETL to aggregation and analytics, hold your managers and teams accountable to that direction, and establish the engineering and agile practices that support delivery speed and quality
  • Stay close to the technical details to guide architecture design decisions, performance tuning, and tradeoff calls, and to give your team the context they need to move quickly without waiting on you
  • Work with your teams and the RV Data Platform team to design scalable solutions across distributed systems using AWS, Databricks, and modern big data technologies
  • Manage and develop the data engineering managers on your team, setting the bar for how they coach, hire, and run their teams
  • Own career development across your org, building growth paths for individual contributors and managers alike, and coaching through regular, direct feedback
  • You'll lead the team that builds and scales Red Ventures' data infrastructure, using Databricks, Spark, and our proprietary platforms to move data across the business and turn raw data into the analytics we run on.
  • As a Director who stays close to the technical details, you'll set multi-year direction and grow a team of engineers and engineering managers, while making sure your team has the context and guidance to move fast on their own.

Requirements

  • 8-10 years of data or software engineering experience, including 5+ years managing engineering teams and at least 1 year managing managers
