- Collaborate cross-functionally with Data, People, and Business teams to align technical solutions with real-world needs.
- Promote data interoperability by working across domains to define standards and integrate data for cross-tribe usage.
- Partner with data engineers to ensure the underlying infrastructure is scalable and reliable.
You'll Be Great for This Role If You Have

- A solid background in data modeling and warehousing, with deep knowledge of Snowflake or equivalent platforms.
- The ability to translate business requirements into conceptual, logical, and physical data models.

- Proficiency in Python for data transformation, automation, or scripting tasks.
