About The Position

This isn't a traditional data engineering role focused solely on building pipelines and moving data from one system to another. This is a highly visible engineering position where you'll directly influence how business leaders make decisions across Merchandising, Supply Chain, Finance, Marketing, and Store Operations.

You'll partner closely with business stakeholders, analytics teams, architects, and platform engineers to design scalable data products, solve complex business challenges, and deliver trusted data that powers critical decisions across the organization. This role combines hands-on engineering, technical leadership, and business partnership. You'll own data products from design through production, build scalable cloud-native solutions, and help define best practices that support the future growth of Floor & Decor's data ecosystem.
