Manager, Data Platform Engineering

We take play seriously. We’re looking for curious adventurers ready to find their party, fueled by imagination and drive to build what’s never been built before. At Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast, you’ll collaborate with passionate teams to reimagine our iconic brands and create experiences that spark joy, connection, and community through the magic of play. This is your chance to shape legendary play that lasts a lifetime. We're looking for a Manager to lead the team responsible for the infrastructure, platform, frameworks, and tools that power data and analytics across the company. This team builds and operates the shared platform that data engineers, analytics engineers, data scientists, and ML engineers depend on every day, and which provides the critical substrate for an AI native enterprise. This is a hands-on leadership role at an inflection point. The platform has grown organically alongside the business, and we're now ready to be far more intentional about it: fewer, better-supported capabilities; clearer standards; a simpler operating footprint. You'll lead a team of platform engineers through that evolution, setting technical direction, growing the people on the team, and building the organizational alignment that makes real change stick. If you're energized by taking capable platforms and turning them into a coherent product that other teams love using, this role is for you. What You'll Do: LEAD AND GROW THE TEAM Manage, coach, and develop a team of data platform engineers spanning early-career through senior levels. Run a healthy engineering practice: clear priorities and process, diligent code review, sustainable support, and blameless retrospectives that produce continuous improvement. Own hiring and team design as the platform's scope grows, assessing where you need depth or breadth and making great hires. Create development paths for your engineers, and establish real ownership of the platform and its components within the team. SET PLATFORM STRATE
