Lead Data Engineer

About Us Trimble is a global technology company that connects the physical and digital worlds, transforming the ways work gets done. With relentless innovation in precise positioning, modeling and data analytics, Trimble enables essential industries including construction, geospatial and transportation. Whether it's helping customers build and maintain infrastructure, design and construct buildings, optimize global supply chains or map the world, Trimble is at the forefront, driving productivity and progress. About Document Crunch (a Trimble Company) Document Crunch is Trimble’s premier AI-powered risk intelligence platform, transforming how teams manage risk from bid to closeout. Powered by CrunchAI™, the platform ensures risk is identified, acted on, and transparent as work moves through an entire project.  ROLE SUMMARY The Lead Data Engineer will own Document Crunch's end-to-end data platform and serve as the organization's primary data champion within Trimble's hub-and-spoke operating model. This is a hands-on technical leadership role responsible for modernizing the Document Crunch data estate, aligning it to Trimble enterprise standards, and enabling trusted analytics, product telemetry, operational reporting, and AI-powered decision support. The role combines deep data engineering execution with cross-functional leadership. The successful candidate will build and operate production data systems while partnering closely with Document Crunch Product and Engineering, go-to-market leaders, and the central Trimble Data Team. The position is expected to influence architecture and standards broadly without requiring an initial people-management mandate. WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS Document Crunch needs a single accountable owner for data architecture, pipelines, modeling, quality, observability, governance, and analytics enablement. • Post-acquisition integration requires a dedicated technical bridge between Document Crunch and the central Trimble Data Team. • Reliable product, customer, revenue, marketing, and support data is foundational to executive visibility and operating decisions. • AI agents and conversational analytics require governed data, stable semantic definitions, and production-grade orchestration - not disconnected dashboards or one-off queries. • A code-driven integration approach can establish a repeatable M&A data playbook for Trimble. Key Responsibilities 1. Data Platform Architecture and Modernization Own the technical architecture and roadmap for Document Crunch data systems in alignment with business priorities and Trimble enterprise standards. Lead the migration from Redshift to Snowflake as the unified enterprise cloud data platform, including source assessment, target design, migration sequencing, validation, and cutover. Build and maintain ingestion pipelines, warehouse models, transformation layers, orchestration, data contracts, and deployment workflows using warehouse-as-code practices. Establish patterns that are maintainable, observable, secure, and reusable across teams and future integrations. 2. Product Telemetry and Enterprise Integration Implement standardized telemetry on priority Document Crunch product and data pipelines to produce reliable product-usage data. Integrate Document Crunch CRM and operational data into Trimble DX and relevant enterprise master-data processes. Map Document Crunch data into Trimble processed-layer and Customer 360 master entities, including Account, Opportunity, Support, and related domain models. Partner with central teams on Master Data Management pilots, survivorship rules, account cleansing, identity resolution, and reconciliation. 3. Data Modeling, Quality, and Observability Define scalable dimensional, domain, and semantic data models that support analytics, operational reporting, and AI consumption. Implement layered data-quality controls through dbt tests, business-rule validation, orchestration-level asset checks, and pipeline alerting. Integrate enterprise observability capabilities, including table freshness, volume anomalies, schema drift, lineage, and incident response. Set service expectations for data freshness, reliability, completeness, and recovery. 4. Governance, Cataloging, and Shared Definitions Onboard Document Crunch metadata into the enterprise catalog and establish a practical business glossary, ownership model, and lineage standards. Document business logic, metric definitions, data contracts, and source-of-truth decisions for both human and AI-agent consumption. Partner with Security, Privacy, Legal, and enterprise Data Governance teams to apply appropriate access controls, retention practices, and policy requirements. 5. Analytics, BI, and Self-Service Enablement Own the strategy and technical foundation for executive dashboards and self-service analytics across revenue, marketing, customer success, product, and operations. Evaluate and rationalize BI tools, data products, and reporting workflows to reduce duplication and inconsistent metrics. Enable product managers and business teams to answer routine questions independently while preserving governed definitions and access controls. 6. AI-Enabled Data Products Develop the data and semantic foundation for conversational analytics, AI agents, natural-language querying, and AI-assisted dashboard creation. Align Document Crunch orchestration and agent capabilities with Trimble strategies such as Snowflake Cortex Search, Cortex Agents, and enterprise NLP frameworks. Build or integrate secure interfaces—including MCP-style services where appropriate—that allow approved AI systems to discover and use governed data assets. 7. Hub-and-Spoke Leadership Serve as Document Crunch's primary technical and operational contact for the Trimble Data Team. Translate central standards into practical implementation plans for Document Crunch and surface product-specific requirements back to enterprise teams. Lead cross-collaboration workshops, architecture reviews, roadmap alignment, and knowledge exchange with Data Ops, Analytics, Product, Engineering, and GTM stakeholders. Codify the Document Crunch integration into a reusable, code-driven M&A Data Integration Playbook.
