Tech Lead (Data Engineering) (вакансія неактивна)

Our Mission and Vision

At Solidgate, our mission is clear: to empower outstanding entrepreneurs to build exceptional internet companies. We exist to fuel the builders — the ones shaping the digital economy — with the financial infrastructure they deserve. To achieve that, we’re on a bold path: to become the #1 payments orchestration platform in the world.

About the Team and Role:

As our processing volume is skyrocketing, the number of engineering teams is growing too — we’re already at 14. This gives our Data Engineering function a whole new scale of challenges: not just building data-driven solutions, but creating products and infrastructure that empowers other teams to build them autonomously.

That’s why we’re launching the Data Platform direction and looking for a Tech Lead for the Data Engineering team — someone who’ll become the technical driver of the function and build a platform that provides every Solidgate team with scalable, reliable and frictionless access to data.

You’ll work side-by-side with Artem, Senior Engineering Manager of the Platform stream, and take on the technical leadership of a four-person team of data enthusiasts — with the mandate to scale the team further.

— People & tech leadership: coach the DE team and grow the engineering culture
