This role requires a hands-on technology leader who can balance people leadership, architecture oversight, and strategic execution while leading a team of 15+ associates and contractors.
What You'll Do:

  • Lead data engineering initiatives including data ingestion, transformation, orchestration, and analytics platforms.
  • Establish and scale MLOps practices including model lifecycle management, feature engineering, monitoring, governance, and deployment automation.
  • Drive adoption of Agentic SDLC and AI-assisted engineering practices to improve developer productivity and software quality.
  • Partner with Product, Data Science, and Business stakeholders to deliver personalization, recommendation, and offer optimization capabilities.
  • Mentor engineering leaders and build a high-performing culture focused on innovation, accountability, and continuous improvement.
  • Manage technology roadmaps, vendor relationships, and resource planning across multiple initiatives.

Experience You'll Need to Have:
  • 12+ years of experience designing and delivering enterprise software solutions using Java and Python.
  • 8+ years of leadership experience managing engineering, data engineering, and machine learning teams.
  • Experience leading organizations of 15+ associates, contractors, and vendor resources.
  • Deep expertise with AWS services including SageMaker, Glue, S3, Lambda, ECS/EKS, and cloud-native development.
  • Strong experience with Snowflake, data architecture, data modeling, and large-scale data platforms.
  • Experience building data pipelines, ETL frameworks, and data integration solutions using AWS Glue and Qlik Data Integration.
  • Proven experience implementing machine learning platforms and enterprise MLOps capabilities.
  • Experience driving Agentic Engineering, AI-assisted development, and modern software delivery practices.
  • Strong understanding of microservices, APIs, event-driven architectures, and distributed systems.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence technology and business leaders.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Information Systems, or a related field (or equivalent industry experience).

Experience That Would Be Great to Have:
  • Experience with Digital Onboarding, Customer Acquisition, Identity Verification, or Account Opening solutions.
  • Experience building recommendation engines, personalization platforms, or real-time decisioning systems.
  • Experience with Generative AI, AI agents, Agentic workflows, RAG architectures, and LLM-powered applications.
  • Experience within financial services, fintech, banking, or payments organizations.
  • AWS Professional, Machine Learning, or Data Analytics certifications.
