As a Staff Engineer in our Data & Analytics team, you will drive the technical direction of our data platform and analytics capabilities. This is a hybrid role combining hands-on technical leadership with people leadership. You will work closely with the Director of Engineering and cross-functional stakeholders to advance our data infrastructure and lay the foundations for AI-powered product features.
Job Responsibility
Drive the technical direction of our data platform – leading architecture decisions, sequencing, and delivery in collaboration with Engineering, Product, and Design stakeholders
Support and develop a team of 4–5 engineers: providing technical mentorship, unblocking delivery, and helping build a product-minded engineering culture

Lead streaming adoption across the team, bringing hands-on expertise to an area the team is actively developing
Apply and advance strong data modeling practices across the platform
Prioritize and mediate effectively with product stakeholders – advocating for the right technical decisions and sequencing of work
Contribute to the evolution of our self-service data platform approach, driving the cultural and technical shift toward distributed data ownership
Collaborate across the broader staff engineering community on cross-cutting architectural decisions
Requirements
Proven experience at Staff Engineer level or equivalent in a data engineering context
Strong architectural understanding of data platforms: data lakes, data foundations, data governance, and orchestration
Experience with streaming technologies (e.g. Kafka) – hands-on exposure is a strong plus
Solid data modeling skills and the ability to raise this as a team-wide standard
Experience working with large-scale datasets commensurate with a sizeable B2B SaaS customer base
Python proficiency and comfortable working across a modern data stack
Strong stakeholder management and communication skills – you are comfortable pushing back, negotiating roadmaps, and finding constructive compromises with product teams
A product-minded engineering mindset: able to balance technical rigour with pragmatic prioritization
Leadership experience or ambition: you are comfortable guiding engineers and driving delivery
Nice to have
Experience with data governance for AI agents – understanding guardrails, access control, and safety considerations for agentic analytics
