The Atlantic is seeking a highly-technical leader to oversee our newly-formed Data and Delivery Engineering team. As the head of Data and Delivery Engineering, in either our DC or NYC office, you will be at the forefront of The Atlantic’s ambitious reimagining of our digital operations. Under your leadership, this team will establish and implement organization-wide approaches to system design, cloud architecture, continuous delivery and data formats. This team will also operate and expand The Atlantic’s existing digital and data infrastructure. In this role, you will be central to our Amazon Web Services migration and to our transition to a service-oriented architecture.
The Atlantic
With over 160 years of history and 36 million readers a month. As a technical organization, we use a wide range of technologies—including AWS, Google BigQuery, Python and Terraform — and we are actively evaluating new technologies to improve our workflow and products. As a team, we value curiosity and willingness to learn over specific technical experience.
The Data and Delivery Engineering Team
The Data and Delivery Engineering Team creates, builds, maintains and runs the delivery, data and production infrastructure at the heart of The Atlantic’s product, editorial, subscription, advertising and data operations. Over the last few years, The Atlantic has grown from a small digital organization to a team of dozens. Today, our biggest challenge and our greatest opportunity as the Data and Delivery Engineering team is to adapt the way The Atlantic builds and operates technology to the new scale of our operations. To address this challenge, we intend to develop standardized approaches to systems architecture, create new pipelines for deploying software and warehousing data, specify new data formats to simplify interoperations between platforms and successfully introduce these changes to all of our colleagues in technology.
Moving forward we intend to strongly favor serverless architectures, operate our systems on Amazon Web Services, provision our infrastructure with Terraform and author systems in Python and JavaScript.
