About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Design and deliver product data products on Databricks — owning ingestion, transformation, and serving layers across the medallion architecture (bronze/silver/gold) to produce certified datasets consumed across product, analytics, and the wider business
- Lead the hard problems in the domain — event schema governance across multiple products, identity resolution and sessionisation, high-volume event pipelines, and modelling the path from product usage to engagement and learner outcomes
- Define and evolve engineering standards — dbt patterns, event ingestion patterns, data contracts, testing, observability — and contribute to cross-cutting standards across the wider data function
- Own data quality and contracts for the data products you ship — implementing quality checks, maintaining contracts as the interface between producers and consumers, and ensuring issues are caught early and remediated cleanly
- Raise the technical bar around you — through code review, design input, pairing, and the kind of senior IC presence that lifts the engineers and analysts you work with
- Translate operational complexity — multiple product event sources, schema drift, ongoing integration of acquired products — into clean, durable engineering execution the business can rely on

- Experience working with product, behavioural, or event-based data sources at scale
- Track record of defining and applying engineering standards across testing, CI/CD, documentation, and observability
