- Deliver an enterprise data model considering all our current and likely future data sources
- Manage the improvement of our Kimball-style data warehouse in Azure
- Lead and coach a team of engineers to build and maintain the platform
- Partner with our delivery lead to manage the strategic roadmap and tactical workflow, ensuring that work items are delivered on time and with high quality
- Ability to communicate clearly with diverse teams, including across our geographic locations
- Ability to identify when a business need is unclear or ambiguous and ask the right questions
- Ability to translate a business need into a technical solution, considering scalability, security and resilience
- Relentless approach to continuous improvement of both processes and individuals
We think you’ll be a great fit if you have:
- Experience of team leadership, especially of hybrid on- and off-shore teams
- Experience of managing a team’s workload in collaboration with delivery, project or product professionals
- Experience of modelling and building an enterprise data warehouse to support analytical workloads
- Experience of using Azure services including Azure SQL Database, Data Factory, DevOps, Power BI
- Experience of good SDLC practices: source control (git), CI/CD, test and release processes
- Any experience using any of the following would also be a bonus in our environment: Dynamics CRM, Rabbit MQ, HubSpot, C# .NET development or legacy Microsoft data technologies (SSIS, SSRS)
We are looking for the right person who is a team player who can communicate effectively and is comfortable working within a diversified, multi-cultural and multi-functional team, both locally and remote, understanding the perspectives of each partner. Above all, someone with the passion to drive and succeed in their own career.
Experience in any of the above would help you to become productive in the job more quickly. We are genuinely committed to your success so, if you don’t quite meet all of our requirements yet, we encourage you to apply anyway and start a conversation.
