Reporting to the Director of Data & AI, you’ll drive the implementation and optimization of a resilient and performant data platform infrastructures. 

What You'll Be Doing

• Set the vision, strategy, and roadmapping for the D&A team

• Managing a team of data analysts, analytics engineers, and data scientists 

• Connect with them on a human level while supporting and architecting their individual growth

• Oversee the digital transformation of our analytics infrastructure, moving away from spreadsheets to platform integrations

• Introduce data contracts to prevent and minimise downstream data quality issues

• Establish data governance, addressing issues around lineage, provenance, security, observability, and monitoring

• Champion developing data products over delivering one-off projects

• Collaborate with your stakeholders to prioritise projects with business impact in mind

• Develop a culture of equal partnership between the D&A team and other business functions, minimising ad hoc requests in favour of building long-lasting strategic collaborations

What you’ll need to succeed

• Technical background with proven experience in developing data infrastructure as a senior/lead engineer, preferably in hyper-growth startup/scaleup settings

• Previous experience with line managing medium sized teams (5-7 reports) and enjoying growing people to reach their potential

• Keen eye for identifying stakeholder pain points and business opportunities, comfortable with saying no to executive pet projects

• Ability to prioritise tasks based on business impact and manage multiple stakeholders with potentially conflicting priorities

• Efficient in delegating technical tasks while still achieving objectives as a team

• A passion for people growth, giving timely and constructive feedback to their team focussed on motivating and challenging them directly

• Ability to articulate ROI of D&A initiatives and skilled in coalition-building/securing executive sponsorship

• Preferably experience in developing data products

• Preferably computer Science or related quantitative background

Our biggest challenge right now

• We are a small team dealing with a large amount of data. We need someone to take strategic ownership of the Data Analytics function and create clear long-term plans for how Data Analytics provides value to Superside. On top of this, we still need to foster and champion a broad data-driven culture at Superside where data acts as a core part of the decision-making process across the organization.

• This requires someone able to deliver consistent value to a large organization from a relatively small team with reliability and scalability in mind.
