YOUR IMPACT

We are looking for an experienced Technical Program Manager to join our Data Engineering team. Data is the lifeblood of Goldman Sachs, and our data platform is critical in delivering commercial success. In this role, you will partner directly with the leadership of our Data Platform organization to drive the strategy, planning, and execution of the two engines that power data at the firm: our data curation capabilities (data modelling, data APIs, data connections, and SQL query support) and our Lakehouse, the firm's centralized cloud data store. This is a hands‑on, technical role at the center of the organization. You will own the roadmap and the commitment book for a large engineering estate, run the risk and controls book of work, steward the financials, support the people agenda, and personally lead the cross‑cutting programs that are too important, too complex, or too cross‑functional to leave to chance. You will spend your days with engineers, architects, and engineering leaders — so you will need enough depth in data and computer science concepts to hold your own in an architecture discussion, read a data model, reason about a query plan, and ask the second and third question, not just the first. Our open‑sourced Legend Data Platform is central to our strategy; you will help drive its adoption by supporting new workflows and AI‑driven use cases across the firm. Our Lakehouse underpins analytics, reporting, and AI for every division. You will contribute to a team that values customer‑centricity and collaborative development, working alongside Data Engineering leadership, divisional users, and engineers to deliver solutions for internal and external business opportunities — serving a community of 35k+ monthly active users. Our #1 business principle is "Our clients' interests always come first. Our experience shows that if we serve our clients well, our own success will follow". Every customer is given maximum attention to understand their needs. We adopt the most appropriate approach to drive the business of the customer or institution towards the desired growth. We apply the same approach to the way we build products and deliver customer‑centric, world class products through the collaborative work with our business clients.
