We are looking for a Data Engineering Manager to lead a team of data engineers building scalable data platforms, pipelines, and analytics infrastructure for our clients.

Key Responsibilities

- Lead, mentor, and grow a team of data engineers (typically 6-12 members) across multiple client engagements
- Own end-to-end delivery of data engineering projects — architecture, design, development, and deployment
- Define and enforce best practices for data pipeline development, code quality, and CI/CD across the team
- Collaborate with clients and cross-functional teams (data science, analytics, product) to translate business requirements into scalable data solutions
- Drive technical decision-making on cloud platform selection, data architecture (batch/streaming), and tooling
- Manage project timelines, resource allocation, and delivery risk across concurrent engagements
- Conduct code/architecture reviews and ensure adherence to performance, security, and scalability standards
- Own hiring, performance reviews, and career development for the team
- Stay current on emerging data engineering trends (Databricks, Spark, cloud-native tools, MLOps) and evangelize adoption where relevant





Required Skills & Experience

- 10+ years of overall experience, with 4+ years in a data engineering leadership/management capacity
- Strong hands-on background in Spark, distributed computing, and modern data platforms (Databricks preferred)
- Deep expertise in at least one major cloud ecosystem (AWS, Azure, or GCP); working knowledge of a second is a plus
- Proven experience architecting and delivering large-scale data pipelines (batch and streaming)
- Experience with CI/CD practices and MLOps fundamentals
- Strong stakeholder management and client-facing consulting experience
- Track record of building, scaling, and retaining high-performing engineering teams
- Excellent communication skills — able to translate technical concepts for both engineering and business audiences

Good to Have

- Databricks / cloud certifications (Data Engineer Professional, Solutions Architect, etc.)
- Experience in a consulting or skilled services environment
- Exposure to data governance, security, and compliance frameworks
- Prior experience mentoring engineers into senior/lead roles

What We Offer

- Opportunity to lead high-impact data engineering initiatives for marquee clients
- Collaborative, fast-paced consulting environment
- Strong growth path into senior technical leadership roles
