We are looking for a high-impact Data Engineering Manager to take ownership of our data delivery lifecycle. In this role, you will be driving the end-to-end delivery of complex data projects, managing a distributed team of developers across North America and India.

- Team Leadership & Coordination: Manage and mentor a distributed team of developers, providing clear technical direction, resolving blockers, and conducting constructive code reviews.
- Deep System Integration: Proactively explore and master all systems upstream and downstream of your area. You will be expected to understand how our data interacts with client platforms to ensure smooth end-to-end integration.
- Operational Excellence: Lead the development of testing frameworks and QA plans to guarantee data integrity across our modern cloud stack (Azure, AWS, Databricks).
- Continuous Innovation: Constantly seek out better solutions and improved ways of working. Actively participate in Agile environments, optimizing sprint cycles and introducing best practices for CI/CD and system reliability.
- Domain Mastery: Rapidly learn the nuances of the Advertising and Market Research domain to better translate business needs into robust technical requirements.
What You'll Bring (Qualifications)- Experience: 8+ years in data engineering or ETL development, with at least 4-5 years in a lead or management capacity.
- Technical Foundation: Expert-level understanding of ETL technologies, ideally a deep understanding of SQL Server, Postgres, and the Databricks ecosystem (Delta Lake, Unity Catalog, Spark SQL) and Python/PySpark.
- Analytical Rigor: A strong background in SQL and RDBMS, with the ability to troubleshoot complex production issues and perform root-cause analysis.
- Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
Bonus Points (Nice to Haves)- Domain Expertise: Previous experience in Advertising, Media, or Market Research.
- Infrastructure Knowledge: Familiarity with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and Azure DevOps pipelines.
