You'll report to the Director of Data Engineering & AI and work hand in hand with the wider Data & BI team, Product, and business stakeholders.It's a small, high-leverage team, so this is a player-coach role by design: you'll set the technical direction, standards, and roadmap, but you'll also be in the code and in the pipelines yourself whenever it counts.

and the semantic layer that defines our metrics.Own the ingestion and orchestration stack — Airflow, dlt, and the move to serverless CDC — and the reliability, quality, and observability of our data pipelines.Own the self-service BI and reporting toolkit (Tableau, Metabase, and our move to Lightdash / dashboards-as-code) so stakeholders can trust and explore their own data.Establish and maintain data governance: data quality, lineage, documentation, PII and access controls, and self-service standards.Drive AI across the team — AI-assisted engineering and production AI data pipelines — and its adoption as a standard practice.Partner with the Director of Data Engineering & AI, the Data & BI team, Product, and business stakeholders to translate company priorities into a data roadmap.What you'll bring to the table:5+ years in data engineering / analytics engineering in fast-growing product companies, including designing and evolving cloud data warehouses and pipelines (BigQuery / GCP a strong plus)Experience as a manager, leading and mentoring engineers — you know when to delegate, when to manage, and when to be hands-on (it's a small, senior team).Strong SQL and hands-on expertise with dbt, modern ELT / ingestion (dlt or similar), and workflow orchestration (Airflow).Experience with BI and dashboarding (Tableau, Metabase, Lightdash or similar) and building a semantic / metrics layer on top of the warehouse.A track record of establishing data governance — quality, lineage, documentation, PII and access management, and self-service.Demonstrable use of AI-assisted engineering and AI in data pipelines, and driving its adoption across a team.Excellent communication skillsFluent English; comfortable in a fast-paced, multi-market,
remote-first environment.You will love working at WeRoad if:You dream big, aim higher, and push yourself beyond limits you didn't think possible.
