About the Role

As Technical Lead for the Data team at CapIntel, you’ll own the platform that every CapIntel product depends on: the pipelines, workflows, and services that ingest, normalize, and serve financial instrument data and client portfolio data to advisors and institutions. This is a hands‑on leadership role. You’ll split your time roughly evenly between leading the team and building alongside it, and you’ll be accountable for both the reliability of the platform and the growth of the people who run it. The team has built a mature, observable platform. Durable workflow orchestration, standardized logging and metrics, continuous monitoring, and a quality‑first definition of done are now in place, and production incidents have become rare. Your job is to take that foundation to the next level: build a team that owns outcomes and can turn data reliability into a product advantage that advisors and investors actually feel.



You’ll work closely with the Data Product Manager, the other engineering team leads, Architecture, Client Solutions, and Implementation. You’ll also be a go‑to resource for other teams adopting the workflow and observability patterns the Data team pioneered. This role is ideal for a senior data engineer who has already led a small team, prefers building leverage over being the hero, and gets energy from raising the bar for everyone around them.
What You’ll Do
Lead the teamLead a team of data engineers day to day, matching people to work deliberately and planning capacity ahead of need rather than in reaction to itGrow ownership and technical leadership across the team, so delivery, client onboarding, and production support do not depend on any single person, including youRun performance management with clear expectations, and timely actionsHire, onboard, and ramp new engineers so they are independent quickly, and handle transitions and handovers without disruption to clientsOwn the platformOwn the architecture and health of the Data platform: serverless services, batch and streaming pipelines, legacy pipelines, search indexes, and durable workflow orchestrationDrive the evolution toward an enterprise‑grade data architecture, covering data contracts, lineage, data quality checks, and DataOps practicesBuild systematic,



proactive monitoring of data flows so data quality issues are caught before a client or advisor sees themFormalise and embed incident response for the team: on‑call expectations, runbooks, severity classification, communication during incidents, and blameless post‑incident reviews that actually change the systemKeep the quality bar high through design review, code review, testing discipline, and a definition of done the whole team holds each other toOwn client data onboarding and implementation work for the Data team, making it faster and more predictable for clients and other teams.
Partner with Product to translate client and advisor needs into data capabilities that create visible, positive moments for users, not just a platform that stays upContribute hands‑on code to the platform, particularly on recent systems, high‑risk changes, and areas that need a reference implementationMultiply beyond the teamMeasure and communicate the team’s outcomes (reliability, data quality, onboarding time, delivery predictability) so leadership, other teams, and clients can see the impactCoach other teams on the workflow, observability, and data patterns the Data team owns, and contribute standards that other teams adopt because they workUse AI tooling as a core part of how the team works, from development and review agents to internal knowledge tools, and help define how the team uses AI safely on financial dataWhat We’re Looking For
