Job Description

Come join a fast-growing team within Tableau whose mission is to engage with and grow the Tableau developer ecosystem. Tableau has been transitioning from a pure product offering to also having more platform features. With that, we have also increased our engagement with partners integrating technology to enhance the experience in Tableau, consultants building bespoke solutions, and customers creating deeper integrations to fit their specific environments and needs. Come be a part of this team as we look to grow this ecosystem and the corresponding value proposition of Tableau.

In your role on the team, you will manage a distributed team of developers working to define and grow our API surface to support automation and embedding scenarios. The team is working closely with our peers in product management and sales to help drive the features needed for the embedding business and the automation needs of customers. We are looking for an engineering manager with a strong technical background but of equal, perhaps higher, importance is organization, communication and leadership. This effort requires cross team and cross organization work to help others with the transition from product to platform. You will clearly track our internal partner teams’ progress / needs as well as feedback from our customers. You will work with Product Owners to use this to give clarity to our priorities. You will work with the team to define intermediate deliverables and track progress. And you will help define and track our measures for success. All this while supporting your team and helping grow each member in their career. It is a great time to join this team and it is a great team to join.

Who you are…

• Leader: You lead the team in an authentic servant leadership style approach.

• Mentor: You mentor, coach, guide, and correct the team to ensure that our devs are supported, unblocked, and empowered to achieve their full potential.

• Project manager: You have project management skills and experience with Agile practices, but also understanding of more traditional project management concepts to ensure maximum predictability, transparency, and accountability of deliverables. You are able to help with prioritization of bugs, feature work, and architectural enhancements.

• Technical leader: You have strong architectural and engineering excellence skills through years of development experience on a development team, where you grew to be at least a senior or staff level engineer. You have applicable experience as a coder in large systems and have worked at scale with On Prem and SaaS products. You are familiar with Java/Python/C++ and ideally have some real world experience with API platforms for internal or external developers. You understand and advocate for modern architecture patterns and engineering practices. Bachelors degree in CS or equivalent.

• Product partner: You work as a team with your product partner and partner teams and have a strong customer focus and product / business acumen. You are passionate about building the right thing, in the right way and can motivate the team to do the same.

• Recruiter: You are constantly looking for the best talent to bring onboard, helping Tableau continue to build one of the best companies in the world.
