Engineering Manager, Agentic Data Platform

We are looking for a technical heavyweight to serve as a founding pillar of Tapestry's new NYC Engineering Hub. As the Engineering Manager for the Data Platform team, you will lead the evolution of our Agentic Data Platform-the engine that transforms raw grid data, drone imagery, and street-level perception into a high fidelity digital replica of the world's electricity networks. You will lead teams through ambiguous charters, ensuring our data infrastructure isn't just a repository, but an active, intelligent participant in solving grid complexity.

How you will make 10X Impact

• Architect Autonomous Systems: Lead the design of an "agentic" platform that automates LLM based data discovery, metadata enrichment, and governance, spanning the breadth of Tapestry's multimodal data stack.
• Take models from prototype to production: Partner with the Machine Learning team to bridge the gap between core algorithms and scalable systems, ensuring seamless integration of cutting-edge models into the agentic platform to maximize 10x output.
• Code-Level Leadership: Remain "dangerously" technical. You will own high-stakes design reviews, mentor senior ICs, and ensure our production deployments meet Google-scale reliability standards.
• Build the Hub: As a site anchor in NYC, you will play a critical role in hiring, mentoring, and establishing the engineering culture for a rapidly growing team.

• Experience : 8+ years in data engineering, backend infrastructure, or distributed systems, with at least 2+ years in formal people management or high-impact tech-lead roles.
• Architectural Depth : Proven track record of building scalable platforms that handle multimodal data (structured grid data + unstructured imagery/spatial data).
• Operational Excellence : Deep understanding of data governance, multi-tenancy, and "data-as-a-product" philosophies in a production environment.
• Communication : The ability to translate high-level "moonshot" ambiguity into concrete technical roadmaps for your team and stakeholders.

It'd be great if you also had:

• PhD in Computer Science or a related quantitative field.
• Prior experience in a "zero-to-one" environment or building out a new geographic engineering site.
• Experience building LLM-orchestrated data pipelines or autonomous agent frameworks.
• Background in geospatial data or physical system modeling.
• A passion for using data to create a future with reliable, affordable and clean energy for everyone.

• Transform with purpose: We build solutions that solve real problems and create meaningful impact.
• Be a Tapestry, not a thread: We collaborate across diverse skills and perspectives to achieve more than we can individually.
• Always fine-tune: We stay curious, seek feedback, and refine our understanding as we learn.
• Stay grounded: We listen openly, value different perspectives, and stay focused on what matters most.
