Role
Who you are
- An effective engineering manager with 7+ years of total engineering experience, with at least 2 years in a Data Engineering leadership role
- A technical leader - this role does not involve writing a lot of code, but will require previous experience solving similar problems as an individual contributor in order to guide architectural decisions and to advocate for technical solutions to engineering and business teams
- Able to operate effectively in a fast paced, ambiguous environment and adapt to changing requirements when needed
- A skilled written and verbal communicator – you are able to explain complex engineering systems to a variety of different audiences
- Experienced hiring, mentoring and coaching engineers - you empower those around you and help them grow and perform to the best of their abilities rather than micromanage
- Experienced with agile project management – leading sprint planning and execution
- Experienced with cloud infrastructure, especially Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
What the job involves
- You will be responsible for leading a team of Data and Software Engineers focused on the tools to ingest and process tens of thousands of critical files every month from over a hundred different partners that dv01 works with
- This is an established group of engineers with varying levels of expertise and responsibility over our core ingest platforms
- The team also plays a key role in supporting the internal, client-facing users of dv01’s ingestion systems
- We rely heavily on the critical systems that were built by this team to get us where we are now, but they will need to be either incrementally improved or re-architected to get us where we need to be as we continue to scale the business
- Directly manage a team of Data and Software Engineers that works to systematically ingest, catalog and pre-process data for use with the rest of our data pipelines and downstream applications
- Mentor, train and promote the professional growth of the team (hold regular 1:1s, provide context on priorities, sponsor learning initiatives), closing skill gaps and hiring where necessary
- Participate in code reviews and be able to navigate the team’s codebase and roll up your sleeves when needed
- Report directly to the Director of Engineering (Data) and work with them to manage, prioritize and execute on large-sale projects alongside the Product and Project Management teams
- Collaborate with Project Management to run sprint rituals and ceremonies
- Review and contribute to technical planning (roadmaps, RFCs, tech specs)
- Communicate technical decisions to stakeholders across business and engineering teams
- Work with engineering management peers to continuously improve the processes and culture of the larger Engineering Org
Our take
Analyzing and utilizing huge data sets is a laborious process for investors and the consumer lending industry. Sifting through databases with tens of thousands of cells is already tedious, and the analysis of international data through archaic technology presents further complications.
dv01 believes these challenges have the potential to result in a financial endemic. It aims to solve it through end-to-end data management, reporting, and analytic solutions designed bespoke for mortgage and consumer lending markets.
Whilst there are competitors offering similar, individual services in this space, dv01 stands out by providing an end-to-end platform. This has been successful in attracting over 400 companies including Redwood Trust, Lending Club, and Western Asset.
