Role Overview
Statara is seeking a Data Solutions & Engineering leader to guide the design and evolution of client-facing data and analytics solutions while serving as the department head for Data Products & Engineering. This dual mandate combines solution architecture with organizational leadership, bridging business needs with Statara’s Data, Insights, and Activation capabilities.
As department head, this person will assume direct leadership of the Data Products & Engineering team—setting technical direction, managing priorities, and ensuring the reliability and continued evolution of Statara’s core data infrastructure, with particular emphasis on Snowflake and modern cloud data architecture.
On the solutions side, this role partners closely with Business Development, Product, Data Science, and Engineering to shape scalable solution approaches, support pre-sales technical strategy, and help ensure complex opportunities are well-defined and feasible.
This role is ideal for a strong technologist with leadership instincts—someone who can own a technical function, contribute meaningfully to client conversations, and bring structure to how Statara designs and delivers solutions. You don’t need to have done all of this before, but you should be ready to grow into the full scope.
