Job Description

Data Platform Lead

Jump

• Own the data platform strategy end-to-end — from ingestion architecture and scalable, multi-tenant data infrastructure to transformation pipelines, a modern BI layer, and how the platform grows as we add clients and data sources. • Drive the AI-on-data layer. Partner with our AI engineer to define how agents and LLMs access, query, and act on platform data — semantic models, retrieval patterns, and in-warehouse AI primitives. • Build and productize our integrations motion — ingesting data from a growing set of first- and third-party sources. Turn what today requires custom work into a repeatable, operable pattern. • Lead and develop our data engineering team. You'll manage directly, set technical direction, and raise the bar on quality — starting with a tight-knit team with room to grow. • Define the engineering standards for the data org — CI/CD, testing, infra-as-code, data lineage, governance, and observability — so the platform scales without fragility. • Be a strong hands-on presence on the warehouse and transformation layer — fluent enough in Snowflake to contribute meaningfully alongside the team, not just oversee it. • Partner with go-to-market teams to define what great looks like for client onboarding and data delivery, and drive engineering execution against that bar.

Job Requirements

  • 8+ years in data engineering, with at least 2 years in a leadership role
  • Strong people management instincts: clear communicator, good at developing talent, comfortable giving direct feedback, and able to build a high-performance culture even with a small team.
  • Hands-on experience with a modern cloud data warehouse and transformation stack — Snowflake + dbt strongly preferred; Redshift, Databricks, or BigQuery with a fast ramp is acceptable.
  • Proven experience building AI on top of structured data — semantic layers, agent/LLM access patterns to warehouses, or retrieval-augmented generation.
  • Deep expertise in data ingestion at scale — you've built or owned the systems that pull from many disparate sources into a warehouse. You know when to use an off-the-shelf connector, when to build, and how to make either one operable at scale.
  • Experience building and shipping a productized, multi-tenant data offering — client isolation, onboarding flows, SLAs, and ongoing support. You think in products, not projects.
  • Solid engineering fundamentals: version control, code review, CI/CD, infra-as-code — and a bias toward standards that teams can repeat, not heroics that only you can maintain.

Benefits

  • Remote first
  • Competitive salary and equity
  • Flex PTO policy
  • 401(k)
  • Generous medical, dental and vision plans
  • 16 weeks paid parental leave for primary and secondary caregivers
  • $1,000 reimbursement for work-from-home tech setup
  • Company-paid sustainability subscription to ensure carbon neutrality is maintained for employee activities, such as travel
