  • Champion data governance principles and quality standards, ensuring data lineage, documentation, and metadata are maintained
  • Create efficient, performant SQL-based data queries and Python-based data processing jobs

  • The ability to work effectively across functions, levels and disciplines.
  • Strong problem solving and critical thinking skills.
