 * Comfort owning systems end-to-end, including monitoring, reliability, and cost management
 * Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate technical trade-offs to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders

## Description

As we continue to scale, we're strengthening our Data Engineering team. The primary focus of this role is to reimagine the data infrastructure to support our AI platform. This transformation will be critical to the success of our future products, and vital in delivering value to our 100,000+ business owners

You must be commutable to our SF office. We default to being in-office 3-4 days per week with required attendance on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

What You'll Do:

As an Software Engineer, Data Platform, you'll be both a hands-on technical expert and a strategic leader. You'll drive the design of core data models and pipelines in our Snowflake and Clickhouse lakehouse, setting the standards for quality, reliability, and scalability across the platform.

You'll own end-to-end solutions-from architecture and implementation to operations and optimization-while helping guide the long-term direction of GlossGenius' data ecosystem. You'll collaborate across teams to turn complex business problems into robust data solutions, mentor engineers to help them grow and deliver at a higher level, and help the team evolve toward a fully governed lakehouse with fine-grained access controls and consistent lineage.

 * Design and implement core data models and pipelines that power analytics, ML, and product experiences
 * Implement modern data lake orchestration patterns, including medallion architectures
 * Architect and evolve a scalable, cost-efficient, and reliable lakehouse foundation using Snowflake, Clickhouse, and orchestration tools
 * Define best practices and technical standards that improve data quality, governance, and performance across teams
 * Mentor engineers and foster a culture of ownership, operational excellence, and continuous learning
 * Shape the long-term technical vision and roadmap for GlossGenius' data platform
