• Solution architecture: Own the target-state EDW, data lake, and analytics architecture and guide its evolution through design reviews and clear decision-making. Direct and review logical and physical data models, integration patterns, security controls, metadata, lineage, and nonfunctional requirements, ensuring designs meet business priorities and enterprise standards
• Roadmap and resource planning: Own the enterprise data and analytics delivery roadmap and backlog, prioritize initiatives with business stakeholders, and align commitments with team capacity and dependencies. Develop resource and investment recommendations, manage delivery within approved allocations, and review platform consumption, licensing, and operating costs with the relevant owners
• Data ingestion and integration: Lead the team’s design and delivery of batch and near-real-time Informatica pipelines that ingest data from enterprise applications, databases, APIs, files, and third-party platforms. Establish reusable integration patterns, review critical designs, and ensure delivery meets agreed reliability and data-freshness requirements
• BigQuery engineering: Direct the team’s development and optimization of curated data layers, dimensional models, data marts, and lakehouse-style datasets in Google BigQuery. Set and review engineering standards for partitioning and clustering, and make informed trade-offs across performance, scalability, and cost
• Data transformation: Establish reusable transformation standards and oversee the team’s implementation of data standardization, reconciliation, and orchestration across raw, trusted, and consumption layers. Review high-risk changes and ensure transformation logic is tested, documented, and maintainable
• Analytics and visualization: Partner with business leaders to agree KPI definitions, prioritize analytical needs, and direct the delivery of governed Tableau dashboards, reports, and self-service analytics experiences. Align business and technical owners on acceptance criteria and review adoption, usability, and contribution to business decision-making
• Business analysis: Elicit and document requirements, profile source data, perform exploratory analysis, identify trends and anomalies, and translate findings into actionable recommendations
• Data quality and governance: Establish data quality rules, monitoring, exception handling, lineage, reference data, business definitions, stewardship processes, and auditability
• Security and compliance: Apply role-based access, least-privilege principles, sensitive-data protections, retention requirements, and applicable privacy and regulatory controls
• AI solutions: Lead the prioritization, design, and delivery of AI-enabled solutions that securely use governed EDW and data lake assets. Guide technical teams in implementing Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and Row-Level Access (RLA) so users, applications, and AI services access only authorized data, and oversee solution evaluation, production readiness, and ongoing monitoring
• Business-facing IT leadership: Act as the primary IT partner and trusted advisor for business stakeholders, maintaining frequent interaction to understand needs and present solution options. Establish a regular governance cadence to align priorities, facilitate decisions, manage expectations, and communicate delivery status, risks, and trade-offs to business and IT leaders. Resolve prioritization conflicts and coordinate dependencies and escalations across technical teams
• Operational excellence: Own service health for data pipelines and dashboards, agree service expectations with stakeholders, and ensure the team monitors performance and troubleshoots production issues. Lead incident escalation and root-cause reviews, and prioritize corrective actions that improve reliability through automation, testing, and observability
• Technical leadership: Lead design reviews, create architecture standards and technical documentation, mentor team members, and collaborate with application, cloud, security, and business team

• Experience building AI-enabled solutions on enterprise data warehouse or data lake platforms, including secure access to governed data for AI models, agents, or applications
• Hands-on experience designing and implementing Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and Row-Level Access (RLA) security controls across BigQuery, Tableau, and enterprise data products
• Strong knowledge of dimensional modeling, star and snowflake schemas, slowly changing dimensions, master and reference data, and data lifecycle management
