ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for a part-time Data Engineering and Infrastructure Lead to audit AWS architecture, CI/CD processes, and ETL pipeline decisions in an advisory capacity. This person weighs managed tooling against custom builds, reviews SageMaker-based MLOps pipelines, and mentors the team on engineering standards. Evaluating AI-assisted development workflows is part of the role.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Audit the current AWS architecture across live applications (MAT / Signal IQ and the Impact Engine), including ECS/ECR, RDS (Postgres), S3, VPC, CloudFront/SSO, and SageMaker-based MLOps pipeline design.
- Review the CI/CD process and end-to-end app development lifecycle, recommending SDLC governance layers (schema versioning, environment separation, release gating).
- Evaluate how the team uses Claude Code (PR generation, automated reviews, token/cost management) to confirm output meets professional engineering standards.
- Provide an early technical opinion on ETL / data‑ingestion pipeline architecture (managed ELT tooling vs. custom build).
- Mentor and accelerate the day-to-day infrastructure build team, focusing on AWS, DevOps, CI/CD, and data engineering practices.
- Set out recommendations and technical direction where the audit surfaces necessary changes to the current build.
- Report findings and recommendations directly to leadership, framing high-level risk and readiness.
MUST HAVES
- 6+ years of deep, current hands‑on experience with AWS: ECS/Fargate, ECR, RDS (Postgres), S3, SageMaker, EventBridge, VPC/ALB/CloudFront, IAM.
- Fluency in Infrastructure-as-code, specifically Terraform.
- Proven track record designing or auditing CI/CD pipelines and SDLC governance (e.g., Alembic for schema/version control, environment separation, release gating).
- Strong data engineering depth to provide defensible opinions on ETL / ingestion architecture (managed tools vs. custom builds).
- Experience evaluating AI-assisted / LLM-assisted development workflows (e.g., Claude Code) from an engineering‑quality and cost‑governance standpoint.
- Comfortable operating in a part-time advisory capacity (50% stepping down to 25%) as a strong communicator who can mentor less experienced engineers.
NICE TO HAVES
- Prior experience working with small, fast-moving engineering teams.
- Understanding of MLOps pipelines and data science infrastructure.
- Media/AdTech domain knowledge is helpful but not required.
PERKS AND BENEFITS
- Professional growth : Accelerate your professional journey with mentorship, TechTalks, and personalized growth roadmaps.
- Competitive compensation : We match your ever‑growing skills, talent, and contributions with competitive USD-based compensation and budgets for education, fitness, and team activities.
- A selection of exciting projects : Join projects with modern solutions development and top‑tier clients that include Fortune 500 enterprises and leading product brands.
- Flextime : Tailor your schedule for an optimal work‑life balance, by having the options of working from home and going to the office – whatever makes you the happiest and productive.
The Executive Director, Data Engineering is the functional leader for network data within Global Network Services, directly leading a 25 person engineering organization focuses on Network Data. Data is the foundation layer of the platforms we build: automation, observability, analytics, and AI all depend on trustworthy, queryable network state. This leader owns the network data platform end to end, from sourcing and modelling through to the serving layer that engineering teams consume, and sets the strategy for how network data is governed, delivered, and continuously improved at scale.
In parallel, the Executive Director serves as the Argentina (Buenos Aires) Regional Lead for Infrastructure Platform Foundational Services (Network, Storage, DataCentre, Data Protection and Recovery). Accountable for site strategy, talent development, governance, executive presence, and operational alignment across the region. The role establishes Argentina as a strategic engineering hub by building and sustaining high‑performing engineering teams aligned to global priorities and outcomes.
This leader partners closely with the automation platform, SRE, and Product Engineering teams, and with firm‑wide data governance and data quality programmes, to ensure network data is well governed and fit for production use.
Key Responsibilities
Functional Responsibilities - Data Engineering
- Define and execute the network data strategy, covering data modelling, authoritative sources, distribution, and how data is made available to consuming platforms
- Build and operate the data platform: ingestion and streaming pipelines, transformation, storage and modelling, and performant serving APIs and self‑service access for engineering teams
- Establish consistent data models and identity standards for network entities (device, circuit, site, interface) so data can be reliably joined and reused across systems
- Drive data quality as an engineering discipline: validation, automated testing, monitoring, and measurable quality targets across the data lifecycle
- stablish data contracts and data SLOs covering freshness, completeness, accuracy, and availability, with clear ownership, versioning, and schema‑evolution standards
- Implement lineage and observability across data pipelines so issues can be traced to source and change impact can be assessed ahead of time
- Partner with firm‑wide data governance and data quality programmes to meet audit, risk, and regulatory obligations
- Make network data AI‑ready: structured, well‑described, and accessible so agentic and LLM‑driven capabilities can reason over accurate state, and apply AI within the data lifecycle itself
- Establish engineering standards, testing frameworks, and CI/CD pipelines so data pipelines and services are production‑grade, secure‑by‑design, and observable
Deliver measurable outcomes: data SLO attainment, improved data quality metrics, faster access to network data, and demonstrable downstream gains in automation, reliability, and analytics
Regional Responsibilities - Argentina IP Foundational Services Site Lead
- Represent the Argentina hub in global Infrastructure Platforms Foundational Services forums.
- Drive site culture, retention, and consistent engineering standards across functional silos

Ensure governance, risk, and audit compliance for in‑country operations
- Strong ownership of data platform and data quality outcomes
- Ability to build and scale engineering teams as a manager‑of‑managers across functional and matrixed reporting lines
