Responsibilities

Build scalable platforms, frameworks, and self-service tooling that enable engineers, analysts, and data scientists to work effectively with data and machine learning. Partner closely with Product, Engineering, and ML teams to understand their needs and translate them into intuitive, well-documented capabilities that improve developer experience and reduce friction
Design, operate, and evolve core platform systems—including compute platforms, job orchestration engines, CI/CD workflows, and production ML infrastructure—with a focus on performance, scalability, and cost efficiency. Continuously improve automation and operational practices to reduce toil and enable teams to move faster with confidence
Apply strong software engineering fundamentals to build new platform capabilities that unlock faster experimentation, safer deployments, and more scalable data and ML use cases. Contribute to long-term technical direction by identifying gaps, proposing improvements, and evolving the platform to support Jobber’s growth and future ambitions
Collaborate with upstream and downstream teams to ensure high-quality data flows through the platform, including reliable ingestion, schema enforcement, and foundational transformations. Establish standards and guardrails that promote data integrity, consistency, and trust while enabling teams to build on top of the platform without duplicating effort
Team members participate in a one-week on-call rotation to support the reliability of our data and ML platforms that may include off business hours support. Incidents outside regular working hours are compensated with time off in lieu to support a healthy balance. Occasionally, planned maintenance or major changes may require weekend on-call coverage, with a strong focus on preparation and minimizing disruption
