  • Build an integrated multi-domain Master Data Management hub for customers, products, and vendors.
  • Establish a federated data governance model and automated tools for lineage, cataloging, and quality testing.
  • Ensure the platform complies with global regulatory frameworks like GDPR, CCPA, and SOX through robust security protocols.
  • Scale and lead a high-performing team of engineers, architects, and data governance managers.
  • Integrate software engineering rigor into data workflows using CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code.

What we're looking for

  • Minimum of 12 years of leadership experience in data engineering, architecture, or enterprise data management.
  • Experience working within a B2B environment at a $1 billion to $5 billion+ revenue scale.
  • Proficiency with modern cloud data stacks and enterprise MDM platforms.
  • Proven success leading complex corporate data migrations or large-scale MDM implementations across multiple business units.
  • Ability to translate technical concepts into clear business value and ROI for C-suite executives.
  • Minimum of 5 years managing manager-level and architect-level direct reports.
  • Experience in high-growth environments with frequent M&A activity (preferred).
