Data Governance Consultant (Microsoft Purview)

Remote

As one of Microsoft’s most recognized global partners, Quisitive sits at the forefront of cloud transformation, enterprise data strategy, cybersecurity, and the emerging frontier of agentic AI. Here, consultants and technologists operate on the edge of innovation—supported by a culture that values craftsmanship, open collaboration, and technical expertise. If you’re looking for a place where you can innovate, solve complex problems, and build solutions that make a measurable impact, join us.

At Quisitive, we help organizations unlock the value of their data by pairing deep Microsoft expertise with thoughtful, practical consulting. We’re growing our data practice and are looking for a Data Governance Consultant with strong Microsoft Purview experience to lead the setup and early adoption of a governed data catalog for our customers.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of business, data, and governance—guiding customers through foundational decisions, translating requirements into action, and helping teams build confidence in how they manage and trust their data.

What You’ll Do

Lead Microsoft Purview Governance Enablement

  • Own the data governance setup in Microsoft Purview from a business and governance perspective
  • Partner closely with customers to define governance structures, roles, and processes
  • Guide customers through initial Purview adoption, best practices, and early-stage enablement
  • Serve as a trusted advisor, helping customers understand not just how to use Purview—but why

Configure and Execute the Purview Data Map

  • Assign and manage Purview Data Map roles for project team members
  • Register Azure data sources such as Microsoft Fabric, Azure Synapse, and Azure SQL Database
  • Configure and run metadata scans to ingest assets into Purview
  • Enable and validate data lineage
  • Partner with internal infrastructure teams on ADF or Synapse pipeline configuration for lineage tracking, when applicable

Build a Governed, Unified Data Catalog

  • Define and configure Unified Catalog roles
  • Establish a domain hierarchy aligned to the customer’s business
  • Create and manage data glossary terms and critical data elements
  • Define data products and associated data product policies
  • Associate cataloged data assets to data products to improve discoverability and trust

Support Data Health & Quality Visibility

  • Define and implement data quality rules (simple to medium complexity)
  • Review and interpret data quality metrics and reports
  • Provide actionable recommendations to improve data health transparency and governance maturity

Note: This role is primarily data governance and business-focused. Platform and infrastructure configuration is supported by internal teams.

What You Bring

  • Hands-on experience with Microsoft Purview, including data catalog, lineage, glossary, and data products
  • Strong background in data governance, metadata management, and data quality
  • Experience working with Azure data services (Fabric, Synapse, Azure SQL, ADF)
  • Experience with Master Data Management (MDM), including designing and implementing workflows that streamline data processes and ensure consistent, accurate data handling across the organization.
  • Ability to perform business analysis, gather requirements, and translate them into governance configuration
  • Comfortable working directly with customers and guiding early-stage adoption and change

Why Quisitive

  • Work with smart, collaborative consultants who care about doing meaningful work
  • Help customers establish strong data governance foundations—not just implement tools
  • Grow in an environment that values curiosity, accountability, and ownership
  • Be part of a Microsoft-aligned organization focused on real, measurable impact

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
