We are looking for senior leaders like you to help shape the vision and strategy of this space.

  • expertise in data governance (access, compliance, privacy), data lineage, data observability, data quality, or intelligent platforms.

Responsibilities

  • Lead key initiatives for Unity Catalog, including lineage, tagging, and the unified governance hub, by planning and executing large-scale technical projects.
  • Architect and influence: design system architecture, shape the product roadmap, and take ownership of projects from concept to delivery.
  • Optimize at scale: drive debugging, performance measurement, and optimization across the platform.
  • Safeguard reliability: apply deep technical expertise to prevent, detect, and resolve production issues.
  • Lead and mentor: serve as a Technical Lead, mentoring engineers, guiding project planning, and effectively delegating work.
  • building distributed systems to discover data and ML models and track lineage across the lakehouse.
  • creating end-user solutions for unified policy enforcement and visibility.

Other

  • Proven leadership: strong track record of delivering initiatives that prioritize customer satisfaction and incremental value.
  • Influence and collaboration: ability to drive adoption, shape product direction, and communicate effectively across functions in a fast-paced environment.
  • Mentorship and impact: demonstrated experience mentoring engineers and scaling teams through technical leadership.
