The Role

Data is at the core of Outreach's strategy. It drives our customers and ourselves to the highest levels of success. We use it for everything from customer health scores and revenue dashboards, to operational metrics of our AWS infrastructure, to helping increase product engagement, to predictive analytics and causal inference via experimentation. As our customer base continues to grow, we are looking towards new ways of leveraging our data to save our customers time and improve their sales efficiency. Our team is expanding and we are looking for a Software Engineering Manager to lead the Data Platform organization.

About the Team

The mission of the Data Pipeline team is to utilize trustworthy data analysis and experimentation to build new product features, build an efficient event pipeline for third party applications, and help others in the company use data effectively. The team consists of a group of senior engineers who are passionate about building platforms. Many of the day to day tasks will involve working closely with:

1) The Data Science team in training set pipelines and model scaling.

2) Application teams to strategize breaking down applications to services and migrating data.

3) Business Intelligence to provide near real time data stream

4) Large customers who need data streamed to optimize and effectively run their business

As the manager of Data Platform you will be a key player in what makes Outreach and our customers effective.
