    • Clearly communicate how our team’s systems work to cross-team technical and non-technical stakeholders
    • Have the opportunity  to lead a sub-team of up to three direct reports
    • Be responsible for helping deliver mission-critical metrics to the executive team to drive major roadmap decisions

Qualifications

    • Fluency in Python
    • Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in computer science, applied mathematics, engineering, or other quantitative area
    • 8+ years of industry experience in software engineering or data engineering
