Senior Engineering Manager, Data

5+ years of experience in an engineering management role leading teams in a fast-paced, high-growth environment

Direct experience leading a data engineering or data platform team specifically, not just general engineering management

Proven ability to scale teams and systems through hiring, process, architecture, and delivery

Excellent communication and collaboration skills across technical and non-technical stakeholders

Passion for fostering a culture of innovation, learning, and continuous improvement

Player-coach mindset with prior experience as an individual contributor

Hands-on familiarity with Snowflake, DBT, or Sigma (deep experience in at least one)

Experience building modern data platforms, including ELT, modeling layers, governance, and self-serve analytics

Travel Requirement : This role should expect to travel approximately five to six times per year, including two company-wide Connect Weeks and additional PD&E leadership travel weeks to Nashville, TN or another designated location. Exact cadence varies based on business needs and role responsibilities.

Experience with streaming data patterns and event-driven architectures using Kafka

Experience operating production systems in AWS and partnering closely with platform and SRE teams

Exposure to AI/ML or data science workflows: you'll oversee a staff engineer focused on AI/ML, but hands-on AI/ML experience is a plus, not a requirement

Comfort working in TypeScript and Python ecosystems for data-adjacent services and tooling

Familiarity with data quality testing, lineage, observability, and access control patterns
