You will be responsible for shaping the future of Peerspace's data platform, ensuring its scalability, reliability, and ability to meet the complex demands of a growing business. Beyond individual projects, you will focus on setting technical direction, establishing best practices, and mentoring engineers on both the data team and other product teams. Your role is to be a force multiplier, improving the data literacy and technical capabilities of the organization as a whole through architectural leadership and cross-functional influence.

○       Deep architectural knowledge of data collection, event streaming (e.g., Segment), and ETL/ELT patterns at scale.

○       Experience evaluating, selecting, and integrating new data technologies to solve major business and technical challenges.

●       Technical Leadership & Influence: Demonstrated ability to drive technical decisions across multiple teams, build consensus, and lead large-scale initiatives without direct authority.

●       Collaboration: A natural ability to partner with senior leaders in Product, Engineering, and Analytics to translate business needs into a long-term technical strategy.

●       Impact: A portfolio of work that demonstrates your ability to solve ambiguous, complex problems that enable entire teams or product areas. You have a reputation for improving engineering velocity and quality.

●       Strategic Mindset: An ability to think beyond immediate requirements to build foundational systems that will support the company's long-term goals and future data products.

In this role, you will be responsible for:

●       Platform Architecture: Architecting and evolving our core data infrastructure (BigQuery, DBT, Segment) to ensure it is robust, scalable, and serves as a reliable foundation for all data consumers.

●       Setting Standards: Defining and evangelizing data engineering best practices, patterns, and tooling for use across the entire Peerspace engineering organization.

●       Cross-Functional Leadership: Partnering with other engineering teams to design and implement services that produce clean, well-structured, and reliable data from the source.

●       Solving Hard Problems: Tackling the most complex technical challenges within our data ecosystem, such as platform performance bottlenecks, data governance frameworks, or cost optimization strategies.
