About the role: The Product Engine of Change

As a Product Lead for the Data Platform at Tapestry, you will be the visionary yet hands-on producer leader of the next-generation foundation that powers transformative x-functional use cases, from Agentic insights to hyper-scale grid planning. You will build a scalable, secure, and user-centric platform that empowers internal product teams and global partners to discover and harness data at unprecedented scale. Your mission is to democratize energy data while rigorously enforcing the privacy, compliance, and governance standards essential for the world's most critical infrastructure.

How You Will Make 10x Impact

• Platform Strategy: Architect the technical vision for usability, scalability, and reliability, ensuring the platform serves as a robust foundation for diverse internal and partner-led energy innovations.
• Grid Model Orchestration and Collaboration: Define the strategy for multi-user collaboration and branching within the Grid Data API. You will architect the "git-like" versioning systems that allow teams to manage concurrent "future-state" grid proposals, ensuring seamless merging, conflict resolution, and change-tracking across the Tapestry ecosystem.
• Discovery and Truth: Implement advanced data governance through automated lineage and metadata management, creating a single source of truth that powers high-fidelity derived insights.
• Security Architecture: Architect the Zero-Trust identity framework aligned with industry standards (ISO, pen testing, threat detection).
• Privacy by Design: Lead the development of automated controls for GDPR, CCPA, and access management.
• Build vs. Buy: Evaluate 3rd party tools and shepherd procurement to optimize for a lean, high-velocity architecture.
• Durable Decision Making: Lead complex architectural trade-offs, balancing immediate application pressure against long-term platform stability.
