About the Role:

Grade Level (for internal use):
13We are seeking a solid technical and people leader to join as Director of Engineering, Data Platforms for our offshore team in India. In this role, you will partner closely with the core Databricks team to support the transition of existing data pipelines to the target platform, while continuing to refine, enhance, and operationalize those pipelines for scale, quality, reliability, and secure cloud-native delivery on AWS. AWS data engineering practices commonly emphasize automated and orchestrated data flows, metadata-driven pipelines, and alignment to platform guardrails and security controls.
This leader will manage a small, focused engineering team responsible for supporting offshore platform adoption and enabling asset-agnostic data onboarding into the enterprise data platform. The role is execution-oriented and team-oriented in nature, with accountability for high-quality delivery, engineering rigor, and consistent partnership with global stakeholders.




You will also support integrations with the enterprise data mastering platform to help ensure trusted, standardized, and reusable data flows across the ecosystem. Experience with NeoXam DataHub is a solid plus, particularly in environments where master, market, reference, risk, and investment data are managed across the full lifecycle—from acquisition through distribution—to create a trusted single source of truth.
This role is ideal for someone who combines hands-on data platform depth with practical team leadership, strong cross-geography collaboration, and experience establishing repeatable cloud data engineering patterns across modern lakehouse and mastering ecosystems.
