About The Position

As the Sr. Manager of Data Engineering and Architecture, you will be a hands-on leader responsible for defining and executing the data engineering strategy, architecture, and technology stack. You will be responsible for the foundational data infrastructure that powers analytics and decision-making across the organization. A critical part of this role will be building, mentoring, and managing a team of 3 data engineers. You will guide the team's efforts while also contributing directly to the development of our modern data warehouse in Snowflake using dbt and SQL, transforming raw data into reliable and accessible datasets. Crucially, you will spearhead the data migration efforts for our ongoing Oracle Fusion Cloud deployment, designing a robust, cohesive data ecosystem that bridges our new Oracle environment with Snowflake. Your leadership will ensure the successful design, build, and maintenance of robust data pipelines that ingest data from a variety of internal and external sources into Snowflake. Your team's work will support reporting, dashboarding, and analysis across the company, enabling teams to make informed decisions based on trusted data. Given the green-field nature of this initiative, the role is expected to be approximately 30% technical leadership, strategy, and people management, and 70% direct, hands-on engineering and architecture. This position is based in a hybrid work environment and requires regular in-office collaboration. It offers an opportunity to lead with modern data tools, build a high-performing team, and make a direct, strategic impact on data quality and accessibility during a massive phase of enterprise scaling.
