- Analyst-Ready Data Layer Architecture: Design and govern a dedicated business data layer by transforming raw data from systems like NetSuite, Salesforce, and Coupa into functional, high-performance schemas that eliminate manual data preparation for the global team.
- Technical Innovation & Partnership: Serve as the primary bridge to central Data Engineering to influence warehouse schema design while piloting AI-driven concepts to automate data anomaly detection and streamline the analytical pipeline.
The Profile
- Experienced Strategist: 8+ years of experience in data analytics, engineering, or database architecture, with a proven track record of supporting complex financial or business modelling.
