About Tala
Tala is AI-native credit infrastructure for the global majority, combining proprietary risk intelligence with an expanding network of capital and distribution partners to power credit access at scale. Backed by more than $500 million in funding, Tala has distributed more than $7 billion in capital to more than 13 million customers across Africa, Latin America, and Asia—building one of the most robust datasets on thin-file borrowers anywhere in the world. Our mission is simple yet bold: to unleash the economic power of the global majority. We are looking for daring, data-driven leaders passionate about building the trust and credit infrastructure for the global majority.
Our pioneering work and proven impact have earned us consistent recognition, including being named to:
CNBC’s Disruptor 50 for five years.
CNBC’s World's Top Fintech Companies for two consecutive years.
Forbes’ Fintech 50 list for nine consecutive years.
Visionary investors, persuaded by the economic power of the global majority, have committed half a billion dollars in equity and debt to Tala's success.
Given the global nature of our team, we operate on a remote-first approach with office hubs in Santa Monica, CA (HQ); Nairobi, Kenya; Mexico City, Mexico; Manila, the Philippines; and Bangalore, India.
Most Talazens join us because they connect with our mission. If you are energized by the impact you can make at Tala, we’d love to hear from you!
The Role
We're looking for an Analytics Platforms Architect to be the senior technical leader responsible for making Tala's data easier to trust, understand, access, and use across the company.
This is a highly hands-on technical leadership role. You'll define the architecture and technical direction for shared data and analytics platforms while also building alongside our engineers.
You'll work across Product, Analytics, Engineering, Finance, and Accounting to create infrastructure that becomes the foundation for how Tala uses data. A major focus will be building a semantic layer that gives the organization consistent, governed definitions for important business metrics. You'll also help establish how our analytics teams and AI tools safely work with that data.
This isn't an architecture role where you simply create designs and hand them off to someone else. You'll be expected to make technical decisions, write code, build production systems, and drive important platform initiatives through delivery.
Initially, this role is an individual contributor position with no direct reports, operating at a Principal/Staff-level scope. As our platform organization grows, there will be an opportunity to build and lead a team.
What You'll Do:
Own Data Platform Architecture
• Define the technical architecture for Tala's semantic layer and shared analytics platform.
• Establish consistent, governed definitions for business metrics across markets and teams.
• Determine how data and metrics should be stored, modeled, accessed, and consumed across BI tools, notebooks, applications, and AI agents.
• Make architectural decisions that balance scalability, reliability, usability, governance, and regulatory requirements.
• Set technical priorities and sequencing for major platform initiatives and ensure they reach completion.
Build, Don't Just Architect
• Design and build production data models, pipelines, services, tooling, SDKs, and other platform components.
• Partner closely with Analytics Engineering and Data Infrastructure as a senior technical contributor.
• Take ownership of specific platform capabilities from concept through production.
• Identify and eliminate technical debt and architectural bottlenecks that slow down the broader data organization.
• Establish reusable patterns and standards that make it easier for engineers and analysts to work with data.
Build AI-Native Analytics
• Define how Tala's Analytics organization can effectively use AI in everyday workflows, including development, analysis, testing, documentation, and data exploration.
• Build the context and governance layer that enables AI agents to safely work with trusted business metrics and data.
• Establish standards and best practices for using AI across analytics and data workflows.
• Help move AI initiatives from experimentation and prototypes into reliable, adopted tools and processes.
Drive Cross-Functional Data Initiatives
• Lead technical initiatives that span Product, Engineering, Analytics, Finance, and Accounting.
• Bring clarity to ambiguous problems and drive technical decisions to completion.
• Unblock engineers and teams by resolving dependencies, architectural questions, and technical debt.
• Partner with Finance and Accounting to ensure important financial and business metrics reconcile with the company's books and reporting.
• Build strong relationships across teams and influence technical decisions without relying on formal authority.
Raise the Technical Bar
• Provide technical mentorship through design reviews, pairing, and hands-on collaboration.
• Establish engineering and data architecture standards.
• Improve documentation and make data easier for teams to understand and use.
• Help create a culture where governance, reliability, and usability are built into data products from the beginning.
What You'll Need:
• Significant experience in data engineering, software engineering, analytics engineering, data platforms, or a related technical field.
• Experience designing and building large-scale or shared data platforms and infrastructure.
• Strong experience with data architecture, data modeling, pipelines, and production systems.
• A track record of making complex architectural decisions and translating them into working systems.
• The ability and willingness to write production code and build alongside engineers.…
