TEAM MANDATE

The Data Platform team is a small and mighty senior team that owns 5 major functional areas:

While everyone has their area of preference & expertise, the team tries to be as cross-functional as possible to be able to support each area, with the exception of MLOps which is very specialized. This role is for mainly batch pipelines and terraform, but will also extend to the other categories as needed.
Data Platform is one of 3 data specific teams: with the Data Science team & Customer Data Team. The Data Platform team works with many different other teams as well.
We’re very collaborative at League as we’re often faced with problems that we don’t necessarily know the answer for. We value critical thinking, discussion, learning and transparency over the “right” textbook skillset for the role. That being said, the range of skills we’re looking for is very wide and we can compromise as long as the candidate is transparent and open to learning.

• Be a subject matter expert in League’s task orchestration infrastructure (Airflow/Cloud Composer), which supports many products
• Utilize a variety of distributed computing platforms and tools to build scalable & customer facing data pipelines
• Drive architectural choices and data platform tools
• Translate business needs into data and analytics requirements, with attention to detail
• Be part of an on-call rotation to analyze, tune, troubleshoot and support League’s data infrastructure ensuring the performance, integrity, and security of data
• Use sound agile development practices (testing and code reviewing, etc.) to develop and deliver data products
• Guide and mentor data engineers

SECURITY-RELATED RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Compliance with Information Security Policies
• Compliance with League’s secure coding practice
• Responsibility and accountability for executing League’s policies and procedures
• Notification of HR, Legal, Compliance & Security of any incidents, breaches or policy violations
