thumbtack - Manager, Data Engineering
Responsibilities
• Deliver well-modeled, durable datasets for requests, projects, pros, and customers that the rest of the company builds on without asking who owns them. • Partner with Finance so revenue models reconcile, hold their definitions under upstream change, and are auditable. • Partner with the Supply Acquisition and Business Platforms teams on their roadmaps, and turn their priorities into yours without waiting to be handed tickets. • Raise the reliability floor on the core pipelines: dbt tests, CI, anomaly detection, and clear contracts so a definition change three hops upstream doesn't quietly move a reported number. • Hire and grow mid-level and senior data engineers, and develop TLs who can own a domain end-to-end. • Set the engineering standards for a team that's still forming, including review, testing, and how the team decides what not to build. • Lead as a technical manager. You'll make and defend modeling and architecture decisions, not just route them. • IN ORDER TO BE SUCCESSFUL, YOU MUST BRING • 2+ years managing engineers, or experience as a tech lead ready to step into first-line management. • 6+ years building data or software systems in production. • Depth in SQL and dimensional and event modeling, and comfort in Python. You'll be in code reviews, in the DAG when something breaks, and in modeling design discussions. • Experience owning datasets that other teams depend on, with the testing, contracts, and versioning discipline that requires. • Track record of translating ambiguous business questions into durable models and metric definitions. • Strong collaboration and written communication. Most of this team's leverage comes from working well with partner teams that have their own priorities. • Commitment to building inclusive teams and team culture.
