Engineering Manager, Data Cloud

The engineering team at Chainalysis is inspired by solving the hardest technical challenges and creating products that build trust in cryptocurrencies.

- Serve the team by removing obstacles, shielding them from organizational noise, and ensuring they have what they need to ship

- Own the quarterly plan and sprint-level execution: translate OKRs into milestones with clear owners, timelines, and success criteria — and keep them updated without being asked
