Details

Within Applied Engineering, the Financial Engineering team ensures that products are monetized effectively to accommodate customers' varying needs and scales. The team collaborates closely with GTM and Finance to tailor the billing stack to evolving internal requirements.

About the Role

We are looking for a Senior Engineering Manager to own Financial Data Quality. You will lead a team spanning Software Engineers and Data Engineers to ensure financial data remains consistent, fresh, and accurate as billing systems evolve and integrations with additional vendors are added. This role partners across Finance and go-to-market (GTM) functions to ensure financial data is accurate, consistent, and usable as systems architecture and scale change.

Responsibilities

  • Own financial data quality end-to-end (consistency, freshness, accuracy) across billing, revenue, and related financial data flows.
  • Drive strategy and execution to bring systems and data capabilities in-house, reducing dependence on external vendors while maintaining operational rigor.
  • Partner with stakeholders across Finance and GTM to define data needs, deliver outputs in expected formats, and ensure data reliability as systems evolve.
  • Establish mechanisms for data quality monitoring, validation, and observability so issues are detected quickly and trust in metrics remains high.
  • Ensure the data model and reporting outputs support both operational needs and finance workflows at scale.

Requirements / What You Might Thrive In This Role If You

  • Have managed teams that include software engineers (who build/modify core systems) as well as data-focused engineers, especially in domains where correctness matters.
  • Have a passion for data and treat data as a product, able to act as the product owner for data assets.
  • Are strong in SQL and data concepts, and can reason about data modeling, validation, lineage, and reliability.
  • Have experience with system migrations, reducing vendor dependency, or integrating multiple providers/sources into a consistent set of metrics.
  • Can communicate effectively with Finance and GTM stakeholders, translating needs into technical plans and delivering outputs (dashboards, curated tables, exports, APIs, etc.).
  • Care deeply about operational excellence: monitoring, incident response, and building resilient systems.
