Job description

Who is Boulevard?

Boulevard provides the first and only client experience platform for appointment-based, self-care businesses. We empower our customers to give their clients more of the magical moments that matter most.

Before launching in 2016, our founders spent months interviewing salon managers and working behind front desks to understand their pain points so we could design a modern, user-friendly platform that meets the unique needs of their business. Our roots may be in hair salons, but we are built for the broader self-care industry, including many types of salons, spas, medspa, barbershops, and more. Our technology not only helps our customers survive but thrive. Take a look at how we (and YOU) can make that happen.

We have an insatiable curiosity and embrace experimentation. We believe that simple solutions require the most sophistication, and we design each and every detail to maximize potential, power, and impact. Do our values match? Read through our story and what we value the most.

Our team values and celebrates our diverse backgrounds. Being open about who we are and what we do allows us to do the best work of our lives. We believe in equal opportunity for all, and you should too.

Come do the best work of your life at Boulevard.

We’re hiring a Director of Engineering (Data) to lead and scale the technical foundation that powers our products. This role is responsible for our data platform, machine learning and AI capabilities, and core infrastructure systems. You’ll define and execute the long-term strategy that enables us to deliver trusted, intelligent, and real-time data products to our customers.

Reporting to the SVP of Engineering, you’ll play a critical leadership role at the intersection of infrastructure, data, and product. Your work will shape how data is collected, processed, and leveraged across the company - driving insights, powering product innovation, and ensuring operational excellence.

You’ll lead a high-impact team across data engineering, ML, infrastructure, and data science, with a mandate to grow and scale the organization. This is a rare opportunity to own one of the most strategic functions at a company where data is core to the product, and where your leadership will influence both technical direction and company trajectory.

    • Strengthening data governance and approach to data quality
    • Progressing more of a self-service model for data analytics and reporting
    • Tuning performance – e.g. cost, speed, resiliency – for data processing

What you’ll do here:

  • Become an expert in the subject of business identity.
  • Interact with product and other functional teams to align our technical strategy with customer goals and business needs.
  • Influence long-term vision for Boulevard infrastructure and data platform.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate data strategy into product and business impact.
  • Act as a thought partner to the executive team on our long-term data vision.
  • Drive development by establishing highly collaborative, transparent, and efficient execution practices.
  • Work through the team to establish feedback loops that facilitate continuous improvement of the development process.
  • Develop your team and organization through technical leadership, coaching, mentoring, hiring, and being the glue.

What you’ll need to thrive:

  • 10+ years of experience in data infrastructure, platform engineering, or machine learning, with deep technical expertise across systems design, distributed data processing, and data governance.
  • 5+ years of people management experience, ideally including managing managers, with demonstrated success in building and scaling high-performing teams.
  • A track record of delivering business impact through strong cross-functional collaboration with product and engineering teams.
  • Experience guiding the evolution of data platforms and ML systems in fast-paced, high-growth environments.
  • A passion for coaching, mentoring, and building culture, and the ability to inspire a team through clarity, context, and trust.
  • A strategic mindset with the ability to translate business goals into technical roadmaps, balancing short-term execution with long-term vision.

How we’ll take care of you:

Your total budgeted cash compensation for this role is between $200,000 and $288,000 USD, depending on your current skills, experience, training, and overall market demands. This range is subject to change, and there is always room for growth and advancement.
