This dual mandate combines solution architecture with organizational leadership, bridging business needs with Statara’s Data, Insights, and Activation capabilities. As department head, this person will assume direct leadership of the Data Products & Engineering team—setting technical direction, managing priorities, and ensuring the reliability and continued evolution of Statara’s core data infrastructure, with particular emphasis on Snowflake and modern cloud data architecture. On the solutions side, this role partners closely with Business Development, Product, Data Science, and Engineering to shape scalable solution approaches, support pre-sales technical strategy, and help ensure complex opportunities are well-defined and feasible. This role is ideal for a strong technologist with leadership instincts—someone who can own a technical function, contribute meaningfully to client conversations, and bring structure to how Statara designs and delivers solutions. You don’t need to have done all of this before, but you should be ready to grow into the full scope. **Key Responsibilities** _**Department Leadership: Data Products & Engineering**_ •       Serve as the head of the Data Products & Engineering department, setting vision, priorities, and technical direction •       Lead, manage, and develop team members, including coaching, mentorship, performance oversight, and capacity planning •       Own the operational health of Statara’s data infrastructure, including pipeline reliability, platform stability, and data product quality •       Drive continued evolution of Snowflake-based architecture and modern data workflows across the organization •       Align engineering and data product priorities with commercial objectives and the broader product roadmap _**Solution Architecture & Strategy**_ •       Lead the technical shaping of client solutions, from initial concept or test through high-level design and delivery planning •       Translate business objectives into clear data, analytics, and activation approaches that align with Statara’s capabilities •       Serve as a key technical voice on complex or novel solution designs •       Identify opportunities to standardize and scale solutions across clients and use cases _**Client & Pre-Sales Support**_ •       Partner with Business Development to scope opportunities, clarify technical requirements, and assess feasibility •       Participate in client conversations as a technical resource, translating capabilities into clear business value •       Support the development of technical demonstrations, solution walkthroughs, and related materials for key opportunities _**Feasibility & Validation**_ •       Guide data and analytical validation efforts to confirm solution viability, scalability, and expected outcomes •       Review data structures, assumptions, and analytical outputs to ensure technical soundness •       Support proof points (e.g., pilots, prototypes, demonstrations) where they strengthen solution confidence _**Cross-Functional Alignment**_ •       Collaborate with Product, Data Science, and Engineering to align solution designs with platform capabilities and delivery realities •       Surface risks, dependencies, and tradeoffs early to maintain momentum and clarity •       Bridge commercial intent and technical execution across teams **What Success Looks Like** •       The Data Products & Engineering team operates with clear direction, strong execution, and alignment to company priorities •       Snowflake-based data infrastructure is reliable, well-maintained, and evolving to meet growing demands •       Client opportunities are scoped accurately and efficiently, with strong technical grounding •       Technical solutions are feasible, scalable, and clearly aligned to business value •       Cross-functional teams are aligned on requirements, risks, and delivery plans •       The solutions function becomes more repeatable, effective, and scalable over time ## Requirements We’re looking for demonstrated technical depth and sound judgment—earned through real exposure to complex problems—more than a specific career path or title history. •       Snowflake working experience required. You should have hands-on working knowledge of Snowflake. You don’t need to be a certified architect, but you need to be able to contribute to technical decisions confidently in a Snowflake-centric environment. •       Experience in solutions engineering, data engineering, analytics, data products, or a related technical role •       Familiarity with data integration, pipelines, data modeling, and solution architecture concepts •       Experience with modern cloud data platforms and analytics workflows; AWS environment experience is a plus, as is Alteryx •       Ability to translate business needs into technical requirements and executable solution plans •       Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, including comfort working with complex datasets •       Ability to communicate technical ideas clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences •       Team leadership experience required—whether through direct management, tech-lead roles, or running cross-functional workstreams.
