Sr Manager, Software Data Engineering

Job Summary:

Do you remember seeing trailers for The Devil Wears Prada 2 earlier this summer? What about digital spots for a cruise on the Disney Wish? Or the California Adventure Food and Wine Festival? If you did, it was likely because of the detailed planning and execution of The Walt Disney Company’s Enterprise Media and Marketing team…and if you didn’t – it’s probably because our targeting is that good.

We are looking for a Sr Manager, Software Data Engineering to join the Performance Marketing arm of this media team. We are an integrated, cross-functional team of marketers, software engineers, data scientists, and analysts who help the media team execute highly data-driven marketing campaigns and tactics.

This role is unique – our team is embedded directly within the Disney media team. We're aligned, mission-driven, and free to move fast and innovate towards our goals. You'll tackle the challenges of executing and optimizing precise paid media strategies, using the latest technologies and tools. If you're excited about this, please get in touch – we'd love to hear from you!

• Act as a “player/coach” - lead a team and contribute to the development and roadmap execution of the suite of tools used by the Performance Marketing group
• Uplift software engineering, data modeling, and architectural standards within the team; uphold standards and rigor around software development, testing, deployment, and documentation
• Create sophisticated data pipelines and workflows
• Implement full stack applications that empower planners and creatives to make more data-informed decisions during active campaigns; express insights by balancing the art of web design with the science of data and analytics
• Collaborate with the broader team of media/marketing experts to rapidly iterate from prototypes to high-quality, production pipelines and applications
