Coast is re-imagining the trillion-dollar U.S. B2B card payments infrastructure, with a focus on the country’s 500,000 commercial fleets, 40 million commercial vehicles, and many millions of commercial drivers. The incumbent technologies that cater to these customers are decades old, and businesses with fleets increasingly demand modern digital experiences and transparent financial services products. Coast’s mission is to deliver this at a transformational scale, beginning with the Coast Fleet and Fuel Card built on a cutting-edge spend management platform.
We are looking for a leader of the Coast data engineering team to shape our company’s data culture and underlying infrastructure.
At Coast, the success of our data platform is driving accelerating demand from all corners of the company. We’re looking for a key builder to help us meet this moment. In this role, you will drive the evolution of our modern, cloud-native data platform. This is a chance to lead a small, high-leverage team and make a definitive impact, building the systems that help us understand risk, acquire customers, and create a better financial product. You will be building on a solid foundation that lets you focus on high-impact work from day one. Our data engineering organization follows the federated model of data product ownership—the data platform serves as the foundation, not the first line of defense against data issues.
We need you to help us establish a vision for the data ecosystem evolution while satisfying day to day demands of a rapidly growing early stage startup.
You will report directly to the Head of Engineering and work from our NYC office.
Our salary ranges are based on paying competitively for our size and industry, and are one part of our total compensation package that also includes benefits, signing bonus, and equity. Pay decisions are based on a number of factors, including scope and qualifications for the role, experience level, skillset, and balancing internal equity relative to other Coast employees. We expect the majority of candidates who are offered roles at Coast to fall healthily within the range based on these factors.
Salary range: $170K-$220K
Equity Grant: Meaningful potential upside given Coast’s early-stage trajectory
Benefits Overview:
Coast is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We are building a diverse and inclusive environment, so we encourage people of all backgrounds to apply. We’re an Equal Opportunity Employer and do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, religion, disability, national origin, protected veteran status, or any other status protected by applicable federal, state, or local law.
