• Design, execute, and analyze A/B tests and other experimental designs for feature launches and platform optimizations, including defining success metrics, applying causal inference techniques, and delivering clear post-test readouts and recommendations.

• Build and integrate basic predictive or heuristic models into platform features to enhance personalization and governance—for example, modeling the value/impact of communications across campaigns or developing conversation sentiment and engagement signals.

• Collaborate with data engineering and product teams to design and optimize data pipelines and new data products/tables (primarily in Databricks) that power WBRs, experimentation, and client-facing reporting, ensuring data integrity, usability, and scalability.

• Work closely with cross-functional partners (product, field operations, strategy, and other analytics teams) to translate complex analytical findings into clear narratives and actionable strategies that inform roadmaps and day-to-day decisions.

• Mentor and support other analysts or partners on best practices in querying, experimentation, and data storytelling, including code reviews and shared standards, to raise the overall bar for analytics across the platforms.

• Apply SRE principles such as observability, automation, and fault tolerance through platform solutions instead of manual intervention
• Lead by example by raising the engineering bar through strong system design, high-quality code, thorough documentation, and operational rigor

We’re creating innovative, connected, and equitable solutions that help people move from dreaming to transacting. The Engagement Data Warehouse (EGDW) team sits within Zillow’s Data Engineering, Science & Analytics organization and is at the heart of that mission. This team builds and operates engagement and top‑of‑funnel data products that show how customers discover, explore, and return to Zillow across our Growth and Shopping experiences.

We work primarily with large‑scale clickstream and engagement data, plus core email, push, SEO/traffic, and seller engagement data. Our data products are used every day by partners in Data Science, AI/ML, Marketing Analytics, Experimentation, and Product to make high‑impact decisions, design experiments, and build better customer experiences.

Over the next few years, the team will continue to evolve top‑of‑funnel and search/traffic metrics into well‑modeled, self‑serve datasets, build new user retention and engagement metrics that shape how we understand long‑term customer value, and deepen SEO and landing‑page analytics while continuing to build and enhance petabyte‑scale clickstream datasets.

You will serve as a bridge between technical and business leaders, translating ambiguous, high‑level goals into clear data strategies and execution plans, and you’ll build a team culture that prioritizes proactive problem‑solving, strong ownership, and thoughtful support for people’s growth and well‑being.

You Will Get To

· Define & Drive the Data Roadmap: Own the strategy for engagement and top‑of‑funnel data products (clickstream, SEO, retention, and lifecycle marketing). Partner with Data Science, AI/ML, and Product leaders to identify gaps and deliver end‑to‑end solutions that define how Zillow understands the customer journey.

· Lead & Scale a High‑Impact Team: Manage and grow a team of engineers, aligning them around measurable outcomes. Prioritize team health by balancing new product work with platform stability and ongoing operational work to prevent burnout.

· Champion Engineering Excellence: Serve as a technical thought partner, raising the bar through rigorous design reviews, strong data modeling standards, and robust observability for petabyte‑scale systems.

· Communicate with Influence: Translate complex technical trade‑offs into business‑relevant terms for senior leadership. Author clear design docs and stakeholder updates that align cross‑functional teams on scope, timelines, and expected impact.

About the role

As the Senior Engineering Manager for Guardians, you will lead a team of ~8 engineers responsible for the reliability, evolution, and adoption of Zillow’s centralized leads platform.

• Modernize a mission‑critical platform, replacing legacy systems with more reliable, observable workflows so that lead processing is resilient, auditable, and easy to reason about for engineers and stakeholders.
• Design end‑to‑end lead journeys in partnership with product, operations, and analytics — from the moment a consumer raises their hand through to hand‑off into partner systems — reducing friction and improving conversion for buy, sell, and finance customers.
• Shape and execute the reliability and observability strategy, defining the roadmap, metrics, dashboards, and alerts that give teams fast, self‑service insight into system health and incidents.
• Use data and AI‑powered insights to improve routing and lead quality, working with analytics and finance partners to define the signals and data products that help prioritize the right customers at the right time.
• Raise the bar on operational excellence, including on‑call practices, incident response, post‑incident reviews, and runbooks, while continually reducing toil and improving the on‑call experience for engineers and partner teams.
• Set clear goals, development plans, and performance expectations for each engineer, grow technical leaders within the team, and manage performance with clarity, empathy, and accountability.
• Collaborate with peer engineering and product leaders across marketplace, CRM, contact center, and mortgage experiences to align APIs, contracts, and shared roadmaps around a cohesive long‑term vision for the leads platform.
