Responsibilities

Work closely with business stakeholders to analyze reporting needs and gather precise requirements for data modeling and dashboarding projects

Partner with Analytics Engineers to establish and curate a Central Data Hub. You will define the business taxonomy and access requirements, ensuring that data is organized in a way that is intuitive for business users to navigate

Own the "business definition" side of the Data Catalog. You will be responsible for maintaining the Business Glossary, ensuring that metrics like "Churn" or "Revenue" are defined consistently across the organization

Define the standard templates and required metadata fields for our data documentation. You will ensure that requirements are written in a structured format that allows our engineering team (and AI tools) to seamlessly convert them into technical documentation (Docs-as-Code)

Lead the effort to standardize how we capture logic. You won't need to write the code, but you must define the inputs required to make the automated documentation process successful

Represent the Data Intelligence team via kickoff presentations and demos, translating technical data constraints into business-friendly language

Define acceptance criteria for data accuracy and lead User Acceptance Testing (UAT) to ensure reports and models match the business reality before release
