Lightning AI · New York, NY · 1 wk ago
HybridInformation Technology$188k–$275k/yrFull-time

About the role

This is an early, high-scope role reporting to our VP of Product. You'll own data reliability across the company: clean tables, documented lineage, and signal flowing to where it's needed. You drive projects from conception to production without waiting to be told what to do next.

Responsibilities

  • Design and own ETL/ELT pipelines that move GPU telemetry, product usage, operational data, and customer data from where it lives to where it's useful
  • Build and maintain the clean, documented tables that analysts and data scientists actually work from — not raw dumps
  • Own data quality end-to-end: schema management, freshness monitoring, lineage tracking, and alerting when something breaks
  • Partner with engineering and GTM teams to instrument what isn't already tracked
  • Work closely with product, infra, and ML teams, primarily unblocking them

Requirements

  • 10+ years of total experience in analytics engineering, data engineering, or similar data-focused roles
  • Deep expertise in data modeling, ETL pipelines, and data warehouse architecture
  • Strong technical foundation with expertise in SQL, Python, and modern data stack tools (dbt, SQLMesh, etc)
  • Proven track record of building and leading high-performing teams
  • Experience partnering with Data Science, Product, and Engineering leaders to deliver key product metrics and user behavior insights
  • Demonstrated ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on technical leadership
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical concepts for diverse audiences
  • Experience scaling analytics functions from early stage to maturity in rapidly changing environments
  • Track record of establishing data governance, quality standards, and best practices
  • A bias for action and urgency, not letting perfect be the enemy of the effective
  • A “full-stack mindset”, not hesitating to do what it takes to solve a problem end-to-end

Qualifications

  • We are committed to offering competitive compensation that reflects the value each team member brings to our mission. Final offers are based on factors such as experience, skills, geographic location, and role expectations. In addition to base salary, our total rewards package for eligible roles includes a discretionary bonus, a meaningful equity component, and comprehensive benefits.
  • The anticipated annual base salary range for this role is: $188,000 - $275,000 USD

Benefits and Perks

  • We offer a comprehensive and competitive benefits package designed to support our employees’ health, well-being, and long-term success. Benefits may vary by location, team, and role.
  • Benefits include:
    • Comprehensive medical, dental and vision coverage (U.S.); Private medical and dental insurance (U.K.)
    • Retirement and financial wellness support (U.S.); Pension contribution (U.K.)
    • Generous paid time off, plus holidays
    • Paid parental leave
    • Professional development support
    • Wellness and work-from-home stipends
    • Flexible work environment

Location

We work in-person from our NYC office 2 days a week—we've found it accelerates how fast we ship.
