About
the role Our Engineering team tackles the toughest challenges, so our users never have to. Real-time infrastructure, AI-native architecture, and a frontend that feels effortless — all powered by a team that moves fast, thinks rigorously, and holds an exceptionally high bar for quality. We’re hiring Attio’s first dedicated Data Engineering Lead to build the infrastructure, pipelines and standards that enable the company to operate on reliable, trusted data at scale. As our inaugural Lead Data Engineer, you’ll own and evolve our internal data platform end-to-end — improving reliability, enabling better decision-making, and shaping the long-term foundations of data across the business. Your work will directly support teams across Product, Engineering, Marketing, Finance and Go-To-Market. We see this as far more than a traditional Data Engineering role. It’s an opportunity to define and shape Attio’s future data capability from the ground up — operating as a highly hands-on senior IC initially, whilst helping establish the foundations, standards and strategic roadmap for how the broader data function evolves over time.
The role is ideally suited to someone who enjoys bringing structure to ambiguity, solving complex infrastructure challenges, and working closely with the business in a fast-moving, product-led environment. We’re looking for someone who is equally comfortable being hands-on and building, whilst also thinking strategically about how scalable data systems, processes and teams should evolve over time.
