The Manager of Data Services will lead the strategy, reliability, and evolution of the organization’s enterprise data ecosystem. This role is accountable for delivering trusted, decision-ready data to Finance, Marketing, Operations, Clinical, and Executive teams while reducing technical debt and building scalable infrastructure for future growth.
This is a hands-on leadership position overseeing both modern cloud platforms and legacy systems, with direct ownership of platform reliability, data quality, and team performance.
Key Responsibilities

• Own the strategic direction and day-to-day operation of enterprise data platforms (Snowflake and legacy systems).
• Ensure uptime, performance, security, monitoring, and cost optimization.

• Stabilize legacy SSIS pipelines while driving modernization to scalable ELT frameworks.
• Establish SLAs, production support, and incident response processes.
• Embed data quality, validation, and governance standards into pipelines.
• Partner cross-functionally to translate business priorities into scalable technical solutions.
• Lead, mentor, and develop a high-performing data engineering team.

Qualifications

• 8+ years of experience in data engineering or data platform roles.
• 3+ years leading enterprise data or platform teams.
• Strong experience with cloud data warehouses (Snowflake preferred).
• Hands-on experience with dbt (or equivalent), Airflow (or equivalent), Fivetran (or equivalent), and legacy ETL tools such as SSIS.
• Experience operating production data systems with defined SLAs and support models.
• Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively with both technical and business stakeholders.
• Why This Role Stands Out
• Direct ownership of enterprise-wide data reliability.
• Opportunity to reduce technical debt and define the modernization roadmap.
• High visibility with executive stakeholders.
• Leadership impact in a growing healthcare organization.
