Requirements

- Have 5+ years as the people manager of an engineering team.
- Have proven experience owning production data pipelines or an ingestion platform where correctness is critical, such as revenue, billing, or payments.
- Have experience leading a migration from a legacy system to a new platform while both remain in production.
- Bring strong SQL and Python skills and working knowledge of Snowflake and AWS.
- Have familiarity with workflow orchestration such as Airflow or Step Functions, relational databases such as Postgres, and pipelines that are idempotent, observable, and safe to rerun.
- Have working knowledge of data-quality practices, including reconciliation, anomaly review, and investigating discrepancies against source data.
- Have experience partnering with Finance, Business Development, or other non-engineering stakeholders on data used for financial decisions.
- Be able to coach engineers at different levels, including senior and staff engineers, with clear, actionable feedback.

- Partner with Business Development, Finance, Product, and vertical engineering leaders to sequence work and resolve discrepancies.
- Manage sprint planning, project timelines, and delivery commitments.
- Adopt AI-assisted development where it improves migration and operations, with human review for changes affecting revenue.
- Guide pipeline design, data modeling, and pricing logic as partner contracts change.
- Maintain code review, testing, documentation, and operability for daily-running jobs.
- Identify and escalate delivery risks before they cause revenue misses.
- Keep ingestion reliable through freshness, completeness, and clear ownership when figures look wrong.
