Mejuri is the category-defining fine jewelry brand redefining luxury, your way. Feeling disconnected from an industry that typically markets to men, co-founder and CEO Noura Sakkijha leveraged her learnings as a third-generation jeweler to rethink the way women purchase jewelry—for themselves. In only seven years, and with a team of over 75% women, Mejuri has shipped over one million orders and opened retail stores across the globe, all while introducing new products weekly.
As part of Noura’s original vision to empower women to invest in themselves, the brand launched the Empowerment Fund to support underrepresented women and non-binary individuals with the tools to empower themselves. Mejuri continues to reach new customers through exciting community initiatives and expansion into international markets, such as the UK, Australia and Germany.
We are a team of retailers, creatives, technologists and strategists, and we are looking for someone special to join our team.

Mejuri is searching for a Engineering Manager to oversee the Data Platform & Growth Product team. Reporting into the Director of Engineering, this individual will be responsible for strategizing and driving execution against the data platform & growth product roadmap, architecting & implementing scalable infrastructure, developing growth products, and hiring, managing, and coaching a team of engineers.

What You'll Do:

  • Management. Hire, manage, and coach a team of software, platform, and data engineers. Partner with product managers to understand business needs and establish the product & platform roadmap.
  • Platform Strategy. Own the vision and architecture for developing & scaling the data platform (consumer and operational).

Support information management & master-data initiatives, champion data-governance and quality programs, and democratize platform use for all stakeholders (engineers, data-scientist, ML engineers, analysts, etc.) - including scaled insight solutions.
  • Growth Engineering. Own the product engineering roadmap against growth product and growth marketing needs. Enhance acquisition and retention through initiatives such as user-profile development, MarTech enablement, cross-channel personalization, and experimentation.
  • Data & Engineering Champion. Partner with data and engineering leadership to develop platform efficiencies and a strong cross-team culture.

Experience using tools such as Airflow/Dagster, leveraging the “big data stack” (Kafka, Hadoop, Spark, Flink, Hive, ...) on cloud platforms such as AWS or GCP. Experience working with marketing technologies (ads, email, ...), developing user identities & user profiles, and building and/or implementing experimentation platforms.
  • Engineering Leadership. Experience managing a team of engineers and leveraging agile software development practices. Experience managing roadmaps that require balancing new-feature, platform development, and technical debt initiatives. Experience establishing metrics that showcase business impact and speaking to senior leadership on performance.
  • Management & Communication. Experience working with cross-functional stakeholders, managing a team & long-term roadmaps, and prioritize competing initiatives. Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, being able to explain complex technical information to a non-technical audience.
