- Lead, mentor, and grow a team of Analytics Engineers focused on building a scalable, reliable, and well-documented data foundation while fostering a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement.
- Design and operationalize a unified semantic layer with canonical datasets, enforced modeling standards, lineage graphs, query corpus, and business context that powers self-serve analytics at scale, conversational data access, and advanced analytics with maintained governance and trustworthiness.
- Define and enforce comprehensive standards for data modeling, metadata management, data governance, data quality, lineage, and access control.
- Build and maintain a skills repository for analytics agents, including validation frameworks to ensure data-informed decisions remain accurate and reliable over time.
- Represent Analytics Engineering in strategic, cross-functional discussions, bringing systems thinking, deep data lifecycle expertise, and a focus on AI-native architecture to unlock insights and drive data-informed decision-making.
- Partner with other analytics teams to understand business needs, define trusted metrics, and continuously improve data systems and usability.
About you: Requirements:
- 10+ years of hands-on experience in data and analytics engineering, with deep expertise building and maintaining scalable, reliable data models and infrastructure in modern data stack environments.
