Job summary

The National Hockey League (NHL) is seeking a Senior Manager, Digital Data Solutions to own how digital data moves through our systems—from source to pipelines, storage, and APIs used across the business.

You will lead the Adobe Experience Platform/Adobe Analytics implementation, design data integration standards, manage vendor relationships, and partner with security and engineering on data access and privacy in a hybrid New York environment.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in data engineering, data architecture, or technical data solutions roles, with at least 2–3 years managing people / projects.
• Hands-on experience with the Adobe Experience Platform stack (Adobe Analytics, AEP, Real-Time CDP, or similar) at an implementation/architecture level.
• Strong SQL and experience with schema design, data modeling, and API design for data access.
• Experience with cloud data platforms (AWS preferred) and data security practices.

Responsibilities

• Own the architecture and delivery of digital data integrations — connecting web, app, game platforms, and third‑party vendor feeds into our core data infrastructure.
• Own our Adobe Experience Platform / Adobe Analytics implementation strategy — data collection, schemas, and integration with downstream systems.
• Translate requirements from analytics, product, and business stakeholders into concrete data solutions (pipelines, APIs, schemas, integration specs).
• Define and enforce data integration standards across digital properties, including third‑party/vendor‑built platforms, to ensure consistency and data quality.
• Manage the technical relationship with external vendors/partners building on our platforms — reviewing their data architecture, access requests, and integration approach.
• Partner with security and platform engineering on data access, connectivity, and hosting decisions for new digital integrations.
• Help with the data strategy behind ad monetization — ensuring ad platforms have the data needed to maximize yield, and that ad data flows back into reporting.
• Design and own identity resolution strategy — stitching fan identity across web, app, game, and club properties into a single addressable profile, while respecting privacy and consent requirements.
• Support clubs directly with their data needs — building the data feeds, dashboards, or integration points that let clubs access and use their own fan/engagement data.
• Troubleshoot and resolve data pipeline issues, working across engineering and business teams to unblock delivery.
• Document data flows, schemas, and integration patterns so other teams can build against them confidently.
