About the Role

At Dropbox in the Software space, Design a more enlightened way of working for everyone, everywhere.

<h2 class="p1">Role Description</h2>

This is a critical leadership role at the intersection of data science, data engineering, finance, and AI. As Director, Data Science &amp; Data Engineering for Finance, you will lead a small, high-impact team that enables Finance to make better decisions through trusted data, robust analytical systems, applied modeling, and increasingly AI-powered capabilities.

You will manage two direct reports: a data scientist and a data engineer. Together, the team supports the financial organization across recurring business operations, driver-model maintenance, knowledge coordination, analytical insights, and the development and operationalization of AI and machine-learning use cases. The role requires enough technical depth to guide both disciplines, while maintaining a clear focus on business outcomes, reliability, and team growth.

You will partner closely with Finance leadership, Engineering, Data, Product, and other cross-functional stakeholders to establish priorities, improve the quality and accessibility of financial data, and shape a forward-looking roadmap. You will be expected to move the team beyond request-driven execution: identifying the highest-leverage opportunities, clarifying the problems worth solving, and creating the operating mechanisms needed to deliver durable impact.
