Engineering Manager, Data Warehouse and Integrations

That means batch and streaming pipelines moving billions of events a day, connections that have to keep working across dozens of customer-controlled systems, credentials and configuration that have to stay correct and secure, and latency and reliability targets that customers build their own pipelines on top of. Recent work includes launching new warehouse export destinations, migrating our import pipelines onto a durable workflow engine, building low-latency streaming export, and supporting cross-region and cross-cloud customer storage.

You'll lead a team of around 10 engineers building this, reporting to our Head of Data Platform, and you'll be the person accountable for the roadmap, the reliability, and the growth of the people on it. The stack is Java, Temporal, Kafka, Kubernetes, Terraform, DynamoDB, S3, and Snowflake, running on AWS and GCP.

Responsibilities

Set the direction and roadmap for data import and export, with clear priorities and tradeoffs you can explain to engineers, PMs, and customers

Lead, coach, and grow a team of around 10 engineers — hiring, career development, feedback, and performance

Partner with your tech leads on architecture across ingestion, transformation, and delivery, without becoming the bottleneck for every decision

Own reliability, SLOs, and cost efficiency for pipelines customers depend on daily

Expand the set of destinations and sources we support, and make each new integration cheaper to build than the last

Work directly with Product, Design, and other Data Platform teams to ship end-to-end

Get involved personally in significant customer onboardings and escalations

Skills and Experience

2+ years leading engineers, as a manager or as a tech lead

6+ years building backend, data, or infrastructure systems

Experience with data integration or pipeline work — ETL/ELT, data warehouses, streaming, or batch processing at scale

Comfortable with modern cloud infrastructure (Kubernetes, Kafka, S3 or equivalent object storage, Terraform)

A track record of improving reliability, latency, or cost for systems in production

Clear communication with engineers and non-engineers alike, especially when something has gone wrong

Nice to have, but not required:

Experience with Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, or similar warehouses — as a builder or a heavy user

Experience with durable workflow engines such as Temporal

Experience with advertising or marketing platform integrations
