Beschreibung

• Define and drive the technical roadmap across data platform, analytics engineering, and ads data infrastructure. Set the architectural vision for how data is ingested, transformed, modeled, and served at Life360. • Own the analytics engineering strategy end-to-end: dbt project structure, data modeling standards (dimensional, OBT, and semantic layer), testing and documentation practices, and the development workflow that analytics engineers use daily. • Oversee the data platform: Databricks infrastructure, compute optimization, pipeline orchestration, data lake architecture, and the reliability/observability stack that keeps it all running at consumer scale. • Drive toward a self-serve data experience where analysts and data scientists can answer their own questions without engineering bottlenecks—this is the outcome that ties platform and analytics engineering together. • Make strategic build vs. buy decisions across the data stack and manage vendor relationships (Snowflake, Databricks, Amplitude, and related tooling). • Drive data quality, governance, and documentation standards that make data trustworthy and self-service across the company. • Bring an AI native approach to data engineering: leverage AI tools to accelerate development cycles, evaluate AI-powered data quality and anomaly detection solutions, and ensure our data infrastructure supports ML/AI workloads and experimentation at scale. • Stay current on emerging technologies in the data and AI space and make pragmatic decisions about adoption—knowing when a new tool solves a real problem vs. when it’s a distraction.

🎯 Anforderungen

• 8–10+ years of experience in data engineering, analytics engineering, or data platform roles at technology companies, with at least 5 years in people management. • 3+ years managing managers; you know how to lead through others, set org-level direction, and scale teams. • Define and drive the architectural vision for end-to-end ELT/ETL processes, covering data ingestion, transformation, modeling, and serving at consumer scale. • Strong technical credibility across data platform and analytics engineering, combined with solid business acumen, consistently tying technical decisions to business impact. • Strong experience with dbt (data build tool): project structure, testing frameworks, documentation standards, CI/CD for data transformations, and how to scale dbt across multiple teams and domains. • Production experience with Databricks or equivalent lakehouse platforms (Snowflake, BigQuery) at consumer scale—including pipeline design, orchestration, reliability and compute optimization, cost management, and data lake architecture. • Demonstrated experience managing multiple teams or workstreams simultaneously (15+ people across distinct functions) at a technology company. • Strong track record of stakeholder management at the director/VP level—you’re comfortable saying no, explaining tradeoffs, and building trust with non-technical leaders. • Ability to distill technical complexity into language that non-technical stakeholders can understand and act on. You can run a crisp stakeholder review with a VP of Product as effectively as you can lead an architecture review with your engineers. • Proven ability to prioritize ruthlessly across competing demands from multiple business units—a skill sharpened by working in fast-paced tech environments. • Strong business acumen—you understand how product metrics, growth loops, and monetization models connect to data infrastructure decisions. • AI native mindset: you actively use AI tools in your own work and have a point of view on how AI changes data engineering practices, team productivity, and infrastructure requirements.
