Job Description
Manager, Data Engineering
Skillable
• Manage a team by hiring and onboarding talent, setting clear expectations, conducting formal performance reviews, and coaching accountability. • Lead the team to deliver on the enterprise data platform roadmap by translating architecture direction into sequenced execution plans, team backlogs, and measurable outcomes. • Create a strong engineering culture across the team by setting standards for maintainability, organization, and repeatability; growing engineers via regular 1:1s, timely feedback, development plans, and formal review cycles; and being responsible for overall team performance and cohesion. • Own day-to-day execution for the Data Engineering team by breaking work into tasks, driving sprint-level planning, delegating effectively to grow ownership, unblocking delivery, and ensuring high-quality outcomes through engineering reviews and feedback. • Drive implementation of the Medallion architecture (Bronze → Silver → Gold) with strong enforcement of layer responsibilities, ensuring repeatable and auditable pipeline behavior leveraging Boomi, Dbt, Azure Data Bricks, Boomi/Rivery, Delta tables, and Sql Server. • Partner closely with the Data Architect to bring the architecture to life through concrete implementation patterns, reference pipelines, and guardrails—ensuring the team can consistently execute the intended approach. • Reduce friction by driving crisp decisions and forward motion—using lightweight decision records, seeking the right input, and then executing accountability (while avoiding overly heavy process). • Establish DataOps practices aligned with modern software development lifecycle (SDLC): CI/CD for data assets, consistent branching/release patterns, code review standards, and runbooks/operational readiness for pipelines. • Improve pipeline observability and operational reliability by implementing monitoring for freshness/staleness, failure modes, and quality signals, and ensuring the team responds predictably to incidents and support requests. • Drive stakeholder partnership and intake stream: collaborate with business partners to clarify requirements, reduce ad-hoc thrash, and shape requests into deliverable, well-scoped work that fits the platform strategy. • Develop future leaders and succession plans for key roles through assigning regularly occurring responsibilities, mentoring, and strategic delegation. • Support and promote the company values through positive interactions with both internal and external stakeholders on a regular basis. • Other strategic business initiatives or special cross-functional project involvement as required.
