Technical Lead Engineer - Data Platform na Redfin

This position is a hybrid role requiring employees to work from our headquarters location in Seattle, WA every Tuesday and Wednesday, and remote all other days.

Redfin is redefining the $75 billion real estate industry through data, technology, and design. We use data at every level, from powering customer experiences to driving intelligent pricing and market insights. The Data Platform team builds and operates the core systems that make this possible, high-scale data infrastructure, pipelines, and services that keep Redfin’s data fast, reliable, and trusted.

As a Technical Lead Engineer on the Data Platform team, you’ll lead modernization of Redfin’s data ecosystem, evolving legacy systems into scalable, resilient, cloud-native platforms that power the company’s most data-intensive workloads.

Who You Are

• Architect, build, and operate large-scale data systems and infrastructure that connect streaming, operational, and analytical data across the company.

• Lead modernization of critical legacy systems, simplifying complex workflows, improving reliability, and reducing operational overhead.

• Build platform capabilities and tools that enable other teams to move faster with confidence and governance.

• Partner with Data Engineering, Machine Learning, and Cloud Infrastructure teams to define shared standards, frameworks, and best practices.

• Drive technical direction across the data ecosystem — influencing how data is ingested, processed, and served throughout Redfin.

• Deep knowledge of at least one AI code generation tool, such as GitHub CoPilot, Anthropic Claude Code, Cursor, or similar

• Mentor engineers, guide architectural decisions, and set technical direction for high-impact, cross-org platform initiatives.

About You

• 6+ years of experience designing and delivering large-scale distributed systems, infrastructure platforms, or data platforms.

• Deep expertise: AWS, Python, Java, Spark, Streaming, Kubernetes, and Terraform (bonus for Ubuntu and Chef).

• Proven success modernizing legacy or high-complexity systems into maintainable, cloud-native architectures.

• Strong systems-thinking mindset — you see how pieces connect and how to simplify them.

• Adept at leading cross-functional initiatives and aligning multiple teams toward a shared vision.

• Using and evangelizing approved AI code generation tools to document, architect, and create code

• Passionate about platform reliability, developer productivity, and operational excellence.

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation packages with a salary, bonuses, and restricted stock grants

• Generous benefits, including medical, dental, and vision insurance, fully paid family leave, and paid vacation.

• A high-growth company, providing opportunities for continued professional development and growth

• You'll get far more responsibility than at a big company, while at the same time far less stress than you will find in a 2-person garage startup.

The compensation information below is provided in compliance with all applicable disclosure requirements.

Base Pay Range: $180,100.00 - 243,600.00. Actual base pay will depend on varying circumstances, including the position, location, individual qualifications, market finances, and other operational business needs. Compensation may also include bonuses and equity.

We offer a generous benefits package including flexible vacation that supports the importance of time away from work for rest and relaxation, 12 paid holidays, paid parental leave, sick leave (accrued at 1 hour for every 30 hours worked), medical, dental, and vision insurance benefits, flexible spending account, health savings account, life and disability insurance, fertility benefits, Employee Assistance Programs, and 401(k) employer match.
