Staff Data Engineer, Marketing Technology

Thumbtack is relatively early in the journey of building out a world-class Marketing Tech stack. This role reports to the Embedded Data Engineering team, but works day-to-day with the Marketing Tech engineering team, with a small sub-team of two other Data Engineers. You'll work collaboratively to develop and build the vision of incorporating data through all aspects of marketing at Thumbtack, designed with our cross--functional team. Thumbtack fosters a very collaborative culture of builders, and as such, you’d help set the data architecture, be hands on in building our datasets and mentor engineers as we go.

You will be responsible for collaboratively refining and evangelizing a comprehensive framework for integrating data-thinking into the software development lifecycle for marketing. You will Design, architect, and maintain core marketing datasets, data marts, and feature stores that support a blend of mature products and features with a rapidly evolving product line, in partnership with analytics, data science, and machine learning.

Integrate with teams consisting of product engineers, analysts, data scientists, machine learning engineers throughout marketing to understand their data needs, and help design datasets with the same engineering rigor as any other software we design. Drive data quality and best practices across marketing and business areas. Help build the next generation of marketing data products at Thumbtack, based on real-time data products on top of Apache Kafka.
