What will your day look like?
This is a hands-on technical leadership role where you will both build solutions and shape the practice. This role however does not have direct people management.
- Architecture: Collaborate with architects to define standards for data pipelines, transformations, and integrations across cloud platforms (GCP, Snowflake, Azure) and CRM platforms (Salesforce DataCloud, Adobe Experience Platform, etc.), spanning both traditional data engineering and marketing technology ecosystems.
- Implementation: Ensure correct adoption of modern data stacks using dbt, orchestration tools (Airflow), infrastructure-as-code (Terraform), and ELT/ETL frameworks, with a focus on analytics-ready data models. Serve as the final technical escalation resource when projects face complex implementation challenges.
- Client Advisory: Act as the trusted technical advisor for clients, providing strategic guidance on their data architecture and identifying opportunities where data infrastructure can drive business value.
- Practice Innovation & Acceleration: Pioneer emerging capabilities—including agentic automation and AI-driven engineering—while building repeatable solution frameworks and service offerings that reduce time-to-value and enable consistency across client engagements.
- Mentor & Coach: Develop engineers through hands-on mentorship, code reviews, and technical guidance, empowering them to solve complex challenges.
