Partner with Security, Compliance, Legal, and Internal Audit to meet SOX and SOC 2 requirements, backed by monitoring, alerting, and incident response

Set the technical roadmap, make build-vs-buy calls on ERP, billing, and revenue tools, and mentor engineers as the team grows

What you need:

8+ years of experience in data engineering, analytics engineering, or a closely related field

Owned production data pipelines end-to-end on AWS, GCP, or Azure

Production experience with Kafka, ClickHouse, Tinybird, and Snowflake

Built data pipelines that feed financial reporting, revenue recognition, billing, or consumption-based pricing

Supported audit, SOX, or SOC 2 requirements for data systems

Translated Finance or Accounting requirements into technical architecture
