About the role

Upstart, a digital-first AI lending platform, is seeking a Senior Director of Data Platform Engineering. You will lead the data platform organization, shape the strategy, and drive modernization across data infrastructure to empower engineering teams. This remote-friendly role offers collaboration across teams nationwide, with the chance to impact data quality, reliability, and governance while building and mentoring leaders across a growing data organization.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
