What makes this a great opportunity?
This is a director:level leadership role with a clear mission: build a scalable, reliable and reusable data engineering capability that makes trusted data available when and where the business needs it.
The Director, Data Engineering sets the enterprise engineering strategy, operating model and standards. The role connects business priorities, data product roadmaps and reference architecture to a reliable portfolio of pipelines, data products and platform capabilities that move data securely from source to consumption.
You will lead the chapter of data engineers and ETL developers, deploying talent into cross:functional product and initiative teams. You will partner with Data Product Management, Platform and Architecture, Governance, BI, AI, Digital Products, Security, Privacy and business teams to ensure technical quality, predictable delivery and reliable operations globally.
The organization is developing a federated hub:and:spoke model: the central Data and Analytics Hub builds reusable capabilities and supports cross:functional initiatives, while brands, markets and functions own priorities, data domains and value realization. This role creates one engineering chapter and effective hand:offs without fragmenting architecture, standards or tooling.
Success is measured by data reliability, quality, freshness and availability; predictable delivery; faster source onboarding and data:product delivery; reuse, automation, talent strength and disciplined cost : not by the number of pipelines or volume of code produced.
