- Structure data marts and help transition dashboards into robust, model-driven solutions.
- Handle complex, messy, or disparate data, reconciling inconsistencies across systems.
- Ensure reliability of reporting, KPIs, and downstream data outputs despite upstream variability.
- Collaborate closely with Revenue, RevOps, and other non-technical or semi-technical stakeholders.
- Participate in stakeholder interviews and contribute to prioritisation and translation of business needs into technical work.
Required Skills & Experience

- 7-10+ years in data-focused roles, comfortable operating in ambiguity and legacy systems.
- Excellent communication skills with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Desirable / Nice-to-Have:
- Experience with dbt MetricFlow or semantic layer implementations.
- Background working in distributed, global teams (LATAM, US, UK).
Candidate Profile

- Comfortable balancing short-term triage with longer-term strategic thinking.
- Able to work autonomously and proactively guide projects to resolution.
