Nice to Have

~1 min read

Own the technical architecture of our data platform: warehouse, ingestion pipelines, identity resolution, and a unified data model across the business.
Make the early infrastructure calls: ETL tooling, dbt structure, BI layer, orchestration, and data governance posture.
Sequence the platform buildout to ship a working unified dataset within the first few months.

Define the technical relationship between our consumer app and our data platform: what gets captured, how identity flows, what gets enriched, and what flows back to the user.
Partner with the app engineering team (initially contractor, transitioning to FTE) on the consumer surface and event credentialing.
Ensure event credentialing is production-grade and survives tens of thousands of users on day one.

Hire and develop the engineering team. Model constraint before headcount: automate, simplify, and ship before you hire.
Establish the engineering culture: code review, on-call, observability, technical writing, and a high IC bar.
Be the technical interviewer and bar-raiser on every engineering hire.
Set and enforce engineering standards company-wide, favoring shipped reference implementations over policy memos.
Own standards on day one; the broader technology portfolio consolidates under you as systems mature.
Surface technical constraints to the leadership team in plain language, and carry commercial constraints back into engineering planning.

Stand up SOC 2 readiness on a timeline that supports enterprise-grade commercial products.
Own GDPR, consent tiering, and right-to-erasure capability across the platform from day one.
Make vendor and tooling decisions that survive audit and scale.
Work with existing technology team to architect and enact future IT infrastructure and steward technical philosophies org wide.

10+ years in software engineering, with at least 3 years as the senior-most technical leader at a startup, data-intelligence company, fintech, or media-intelligence business.
Personally architected and shipped a data platform that powered a revenue product.
Deep, current expertise in a modern data stack: BigQuery or Snowflake, dbt, Fivetran or Airbyte, an orchestrator (Airflow, Dagster), and a BI layer (Looker, Hex, Metabase).
Track record hiring and growing senior ICs in a small, high-trust environment; no preference for command-and-control management styles.
Comfortable making product and commercial trade-offs, not just technical ones; able to push back on commercial leadership when the engineering reality requires it.
Bitcoin-literate, or genuinely curious about Bitcoin as a monetary network, the Bitcoin treasury thesis, and the Lightning/x402 stack.
Strongly preferred: AI native with experience building consumer mobile, agent-facing APIs (MCP, x402), or research/intelligence data products at production scale.
