Description

Jellyfish is the backbone for elite engineering organizations, and our data infrastructure needs to be as high-performing and insightful as the teams we serve. We are looking for a Staff/Lead Data Architect to help us design, automate, and scale the next generation of our Jellyfish data platform. You’ll be responsible for maturing our core data models, automating environment boundaries, and driving advanced observability and cost-attribution deeper into our data pipeline architecture. If you view manual data intervention as a technical debt to be solved and want to work in an environment where your architectural decisions directly impact how the world’s best engineering leaders measure their productivity, you’re the perfect fit. What you’ll actually be doing: Architectural Evolution & Blueprinting – You’ll own the blueprint for the next-generation Jellyfish data platform. You'll tackle our existing data footprint, refactoring pipelines and structures into highly efficient, scalable patterns (like Medallion-style schemas or unified semantic layers). Automated Data Governance – You’ll design and automate strict, code-driven environment isolation boundaries. You'll ensure dev, staging, and production data catalogs (and their underlying cloud storage) never dangerously cohabitate, eliminating the risk of "fat-finger" data drops or PII leakage. Orchestration & Compute Scaling – You’ll lead the modernization of our workflow orchestration and distributed compute engines. You’ll focus on slashing engine runtime overhead, eliminating API bottlenecks, and streamlining heavy parallelized or mapped data tasks. Modern Integration Middleware – You'll partner with application teams to ensure our React frontends and backend services hit highly secure, cached API and Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) layers rather than querying raw data services directly, protecting our warehouses from concurrency spikes. Proactive Data Observability & FinOps – You’ll build and maintain granula
