Who we are looking for

Have you ever coded in your sleep? Does AI come to you for answers? Do you complete tasks before people ask you to do them? Are you secretly bullet-proof? No? Fortunately, we would accept 3 out of 4! Seriously, in short, if you believe the impossible has just not been proven possible yet, have a passion for delivering results over words, urgency over delay and leading a team of accountable people with grit and determination, keep reading.

We are seeking an experienced, skilled and motivated …. Ok nope, let’s get real…

We are seeking someone who runs into the fire, not away. Someone who eats challenges for breakfast and disasters for lunch. Someone who thinks there is not enough data in the world to consume, curate and crunch. Someone who embraces the future and prides themselves on delivering not just results, but exceptional solutions that should win awards. Someone who laughs when they hear “it can’t be done” and someone who holds themselves to a standard higher than they can achieve. We are looking for an absolute go-getter to join our rapidly growing company as the Data Engineering Manager. This is a key leadership role on our data team and will go to the person who demonstrates exceptional performance and continuous improvement. You will be directly responsible for leading our Data Architecture, Data Engineering and Data Science teams to deliver world class solutions that run our business today and scale for the future.

    • What does the interview process look like?

    We are passionate and deliberate about hiring high performance individuals. This means our interview process is not for average people. After the 5 mile run, you will be given a cognitive test to ensure you can do complex quantum calculations in your head while doing pull ups. OK not really but our interview process is designed to find the people who will thrive here. It looks basically like the following :

  • Recruiter screening
  • 90 Min - Interview #1 is a culture fit interview with some sanity checks of your skillset.
  • 90 Min - Interview #2 is a technical interview to probe your knowledge. This role is not a hands-on technical role day-to-day but you need to be technically sound to lead technical people and especially to lead strategy.
  • 90 Min - Interview #3 is a collaboration interview where you will meet with other leaders to see what working with you is like.
  • 30 Min - Interview #4 is rare but could have a small follow up for any clarifications.

    • On the whole, our interviews fly by and are more like conversations and celebrations of your biggest achievements but you will absolutely be challenged and evaluated. It won’t feel like a court trial but it will be thorough. This is your time to shine and be authentic and recognize we are looking for a fit for the company but the company must fit you also or this won’t work.

    In Return for Your Expertise, You Will Receive :

  • Excellent benefits including health, dental, and vision insurance, stock options, work from home and flexible scheduling depending on job requirements, professional development opportunities, 9 paid holidays, and 15 days PTO.
  • Home office setup support for remote employees.
  • A welcome “swag bag” with branded clothing as an official welcome to the team.
  • The chance to work for an organization that puts people first and fosters a culture of teamwork by embracing our 5 core values :
  • Success Driven – We strive for excellence with continuous improvement and grit.
  • Delivering Results – We deliver a high quality of work, and we don’t confuse effort with results.
  • Sense of Urgency – We know our priorities and take decisive action.
  • Accountability – We take extreme ownership and deal with the consequences of our actions.
  • Positive Attitude – We have a positive mindset, and we enjoy what we do.

    • Dynatron Software is an Equal Opportunity Employer and encourages all qualified individuals to apply.

    Compensation : $160,000 - $190,000 / yr
