About The Role
We are looking for a highly skilled Senior Data Engineering Manager to lead the data engineering team powering our Public Investor business. This is a hands-on player-coach role for someone who can develop engineers, guide technical architecture, and contribute directly to the systems that support our investment research products and customer-facing data feeds.
You will own critical, customer-facing data systems built on large-scale alternative datasets, including transaction data, email receipt data, B2B spend data, and other third-party datasets. Your team will transform complex data into reliable, production-grade assets used by research analysts, product teams, internal applications, and external investor clients.
This role is ideal for an engineering leader who combines strong technical judgment, operational rigor, people leadership, and modern AI-assisted development practices. You should be comfortable using tools like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or similar systems to accelerate implementation, code review, testing, documentation, debugging, and technical exploration while maintaining a high bar for correctness, reliability, and production ownership.
What You’ll Own
You will lead the data engineering team responsible for building and scaling data systems across YipitData’s Public Investor business, including:
- Large scale data pipelines built for the investor team supporting applications, feeds, and insight agents.
- Production datasets and analytical models used in research workflows, internal products, and customer-facing deliverables.
