About the Role

This is a senior technical leadership role with direct ownership of the data foundation that supports the business. The successful candidate will set the architectural direction for the data platform and remain hands-on across code, pipelines, and systems.

This is a high-impact opportunity to lead strategic projects, collaborate directly with senior leadership, and shape the data backbone of a core ecommerce and SaaS business.
