If this sounds like you, you’ll fit right in.
Who You Are You’re a data leader who blends analytical craftsmanship with systems thinking. You believe great insight work comes from the right combination of clear logic, beautiful storytelling, and a reliable data foundation. You’ve led high-performing BI, analytics engineering, and governance teams and know how to turn them into a cohesive ecosystem that delivers clarity.
You have a deep respect for the craft of analysis and visualization, but you also think in systems: how people, tools, and processes interact to create leverage. You thrive on building strong partnerships with senior leaders and helping them use data as a strategic asset, not just a support tool.
You balance craft and executive presence equally comfortable reviewing a metric definition or framing a narrative for an executive audience. You bring clarity and prioritization to complex ecosystems and know how to manage the “external operating system”: the expectations, relationships, and rhythms that keep the business aligned around truth and insight.
