About The Position

We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our Data & Infrastructure team — a hybrid group of software engineers and data analysts who build and operate the systems powering our customer data pipeline. This team owns the backbone of how customer data flows through GoodShip: Engineers build and scale the platform and pipelines that ensure reliability, automation, and observability. Data analysts configure and validate those systems as we onboard new customers and maintain data integrity in production. You’ll help the team balance competing priorities — shipping platform improvements, triaging data issues, and supporting internal requests — while building the systems and structure that allow them to scale with the company.

Requirements

Has managed teams combining software engineers and data specialists (e.g., analytics, BI, or data platform).
Is comfortable in both infrastructure and data domains — IaC, pipelines, observability, SQL, and data quality.
Brings clarity and structure, turning ambiguous work into measurable outcomes.
Focuses on operational leverage — scaling impact through tooling and automation.
Uses metrics to drive performance and reliability, not just reporting.
Communicates effectively across engineering, product, and customer teams.

Responsibilities

Manage a hybrid team spanning software and data work.
Prioritize and align engineering projects and data requests across teams.
Build lightweight processes for visibility, accountability, and continuous improvement.
Strengthen data reliability and integrity to reinforce customer trust.
Own the GoodShip data pipeline, infrastructure and CI/CD pipeline, from an operational and strategic perspective.
Collaborate with other managers to shape engineering culture and standards.
