  • 3+ years of experience with metadata management, data cataloging, and automated data lineage capabilities
  • 3+ years of experience designing data quality metrics, controls, and stewardship workflows
  • Senior consulting and workshop facilitation skills with executive stakeholder management
  • Change leadership experience driving alignment across multicultural, cross-functional teams
  • Strong knowledge of privacy compliance and data protection concepts (for example GDPR, CCPA)
  • Hands-on knowledge of cloud data platforms and architectures, including AWS
  • Solid understanding of role-based access control (RBAC) and security-by-design principles
  • Strong strategic thinking skills with attention to detail in policy and standards design
  • Advanced proficiency in English (B2+/C1)

Nice to have

  • Hands-on experience with Databricks Unity Catalog
  • Experience with modern lineage and cataloging tools
  • Knowledge of AI-enabled analytics governance considerations
