About Talkiatry
You will
- Lead and develop a team of engineers working on our foundational data processing platform
- Drive technical strategy and execution across our Snowflake platform, dbt project, our Python services on AWS (Lambda, ECS), and our Airflow orchestration layer
- Own the Snowflake environment: access and permissions, warehouse configuration, and cost management
- Own the reliability of these systems: on-call readiness, incident triage, and post-mortems, with escalation to engineering leadership
- Collaborate with product, business, and other engineering teams to create high impact solutions. Work closely with analytics engineering on schema and platform changes, and with our DevOps team on the cloud infrastructure and deployment pipelines the platform depends on.
- Establish robust engineering practices and technical standards across code review, testing, documentation, and CI/CD
- Set clear goals, prioritize effectively, and ensure timely delivery of high-quality solutions
- Mentor team members and foster their professional growth

You have
- 6+ years of data engineering experience
- 2+ years of engineering management experience
- Strong technical background with hands-on development experience with Snowflake, dbt, Python and SQL
- Experience administering a cloud data warehouse, not only building in one: access control, cost management, and environment and release processes
- Comfortable running production services in a cloud environment, ideally AWS: containerized workloads and serverless functions
- Experience owning production data systems: orchestration tooling such as Airflow, monitoring and alerting, and incident response
- Experience applying CI/CD and automated testing to data pipelines
- Excellent communication skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Track record of delivering complex software projects on time
- Ability to balance business needs with technical excellence
Nice to have
