Technical Engineering Lead-Local to Bay area--California Needed - Full-time

Technical Engineering Lead-

Local to Bay area

1 day onsite @ Oakland office.

Preferred candidates from Hitech clients.

 

Role must interface with both business and engineers; expected to work directly with engineering teams.
 Focus is on the enterprise data platform and data engineering; not an analytics/visualization role.

Core technical expectations
Strong data ecosystem background: experience leading data products or data warehousing initiatives.
Solid understanding of schemas, databases, and ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) processes; no hands-on coding expected but must be able to engage deeply with engineers and “know what they are talking about.”
Primary data warehouse platform: Snowflake.
Broader big data background acceptable if not purely Snowflake (e.g., Databricks, BigQuery, Redshift).
Current ETL tool: Informatica; hands-on Informatica expertise is not required.
Analytics/visualization not in scope; Power BI knowledge is a nice-to-have, not mandatory.

 

Role and scope
Titles vary across industry: product owner (PO), project manager, scrum master, TPM; at PG&E, similar roles may be labeled “product managers.”
Not seeking a pure scrum master or a typical external-facing PO who only writes requirements.
Role must interface with both business and engineers; expected to work directly with engineering teams.
