TripAdvisor, the world’s largest travel site, operates at scale with over 700 million reviews, opinions, photos, and videos reaching over 390 million unique visitors each month. We are a data driven company that has lots and lots of data and we are looking for a new Technical Manager for our Data Warehouse team.

The Data Warehouse team is responsible for building and managing the infrastructure and tools that enable the rest of the company to interact with the petabytes of data in our data lake. Our mission statement is to create a new world-class analytics infrastructure for TripAdvisor. The desired individual will not just be able to lead a team responsible for handling the day-to-day operational responsibilities of the Data Warehouse team but also for creating a vision of how we move our analytics infrastructure forward enabling the rest of the TripAdvisor organization to perform cutting edge data science, machine learning, data analysis, forecasting, etc.

The job requires both serious technical chops and management skills. You will provide technical leadership in an environment that moves fast, collaborates between teams and team members, and support a vital piece of company infrastructure.
