Summary from the posting
Lead as a technical manager. You'll make and defend modeling and architecture decisions, not just route them.
In order to be successful, you must bring
2+ years managing engineers, or experience as a tech lead ready to step into first-line management.
6+ years building data or software systems in production.
Depth in SQL and dimensional and event modeling, and comfort in Python. You'll be in code reviews, in the DAG when something breaks, and in modeling design discussions.
Experience owning datasets that other teams depend on, with the testing, contracts, and versioning discipline that requires.
Track record of translating ambiguous business questions into durable models and metric definitions.
This is a short summary. The full description, requirements and the application form are on Thumbtack's own career page.
