Seeking a senior Data Governance Lead to serve as the governance authority and COE partner for a large-scale Supply Chain organization. This individual will own KPI governance, metric certification, data quality governance, trusted reporting, master data governance, and AI-ready data initiatives across product, supplier, inventory, procurement, manufacturing, and logistics domains.

This is a leadership role, not a reporting analyst or governance support position. We are seeking candidates who have established governance standards, driven cross-functional adoption, influenced executive stakeholders, and owned enterprise measurement frameworks in complex organizations.

Required Experience

• 10+ years of experience in Data Governance, Data Management, Data Architecture, Analytics Governance, or Enterprise Reporting.
• Strong hands-on experience with Databricks, Unity Catalog, data lineage, metadata management, and modern data platforms.
• Proven ownership of KPI governance, metric certification, executive reporting frameworks, and measurement standards.
• Experience leading enterprise data quality programs, governance controls, and issue-management processes.
• Strong understanding of supply chain operations, including product, supplier, inventory, procurement, manufacturing, logistics, demand planning, or fulfillment.
• Experience establishing master data governance standards, stewardship models, and governance policies.
• Required experience supporting Consumer Hardware, Electronics, or related High-Tech Supply Chain organizations.
• Ability to influence senior stakeholders and drive enterprise-wide adoption of governance standards without direct authority.

• Experience supporting large-scale global Supply Chain organizations.
• AI/ML governance, Data Readiness for AI, or enterprise analytics governance experience.
• Strong SQL, data modeling, analytics, and reporting experience.

Important Note

This is a Governance Leadership role. We are seeking candidates who have owned governance programs, KPI standards, metric certification processes, trusted reporting frameworks, data quality governance initiatives, and cross-functional governance decisions within complex enterprise environments, not candidates focused primarily on reporting, dashboard development, or governance support activities.
