• Data Ecosystem Oversight: Senior-level management of our data storage strategy, balancing high-performance Snowflake environments with legacy SQL Server maintenance.
• Lead the Analytics Center of Practice: Lead the company-wide CoP to standardize data governance, best practices, and self-service analytics models (primarily in Sigma Computing).
• Strategic Stakeholder Management: Act as the primary liaison between IT and business units (Finance, Ops, Sales) to translate business requirements into technical architecture.
• Hands-on Technical Leadership: Maintain "keyboard-level" proficiency in SQL and enterprise architecture to mentor experts and ensure technical integrity.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ Years of Experience: Extensive history in data engineering, enterprise architecture, and leading high-performing technical teams.
• Proven understanding of concepts such as enterprise messaging, loosely coupled integrations, and hub and spoke architecture.
• Center of Practice Leadership: Proven experience defining data standards and facilitating adoption of analytics tools across a diverse organization.
• The "Modern Stack" Expert: Proven track record with modern, cloud first toolsets required. Mastery of Boomi (Integration) and Snowflake (Data Cloud) preferred.
• The "Legacy" Expert: Deep experience with MS SQL Server and traditional BI/ETL platforms required.
• Expert SQL & API Skills: Capability to design real-time pipelines and complex API-first communication patterns. Communication & Influence: Exceptional ability to explain complex technical concepts and architectural design in a manner relevant and understandable to non-technical stakeholders.
