Tekmetric is a management software designed for auto repair shops. Businesses can easily create customer profiles, schedule customer appointments, perform digital vehicle inspections, upload photos, build repair orders with built-in labor guides, manage inventory, track parts, monitor job workflows, set custom labor rates, shop fees, and taxes, send texts and emails to customers, measure job profitability, gross sales, technician hours spent, and more. By leveraging data, shops of all sizes can improve efficiency, productivity, and profitability.

📋 Description

• Own the data engineering roadmap, tightly coupled to Tekmetric's product vision and AI ambitions. • Lead, mentor, and scale a high-performing data engineering team. • Design and evolve our core data infrastructure on AWS, Apache Airflow, and Apache Spark. • Build the pipelines and feature stores that feed directly into product features and AI/ML models. • Partner with Product and Engineering to identify where data and AI can create step-change improvements in the customer experience. • Design data architectures that support both analytical workloads and real-time, in-product data serving. • Champion data quality, governance, and observability across the organization.
