Reporting directly to the CTO, the Principal Data Architect will lead
the data architecture across all of Rapid7’s product lines. We see a
scalable, consistent and flexible data architecture as one of the key
drivers to continued innovation. The ideal candidate will have
expertise in big data, data warehousing, and “mixed workload”
environments blending both operational and analytics use cases. The
Principal Data Architect will be expected to work "hands-on" with the
product teams to see his or her visions and designs become a reality.
He or she will work closely with the CTO, Product Management,
Engineering and our customers to understand today’s data problems and
develop a roadmap for the evolution of Rapid7’s data architecture.
