# Director of Data Engineering at 2K

2K is seeking a Director of Data Engineering to lead the architectural vision and strategic evolution of its global data platform across major gaming franchises like NBA 2K, BioShock, Borderlands, and Civilization. This leadership role oversees telemetry standards, infrastructure frameworks, and engineering strategy that convert player data into actionable business intelligence. You'll drive the transition toward AI-augmented data processing using platforms like Snowflake Cortex and Databricks, while championing FinOps principles to ensure cost efficiency and measurable ROI across cloud infrastructure investments.

The ideal candidate brings extensive experience with high-scale distributed systems and telemetry architecture, combined with a demonstrated track record leading engineering teams through complex, multi-title environments.
