Data Engineer

We do not want someone who approaches data from a coding, pipeline, or systems-architecture perspective.

Instead, we need a strategic business thinker who acts, talks, and works like the business. Your mission is to understand how our business functions, define how our business concepts and data relate to one another (ontology), and own the roadmap to make our business data AI-ready from a functional and logical standpoint. You will act as the ultimate bridge, translating real-world business operations into structured, meaningful data definitions that technical teams can later implement.

• Own the Roadmap & Vision:Build, maintain, and execute the product roadmap for our business data domains. Define what we need to build and why from a business-value perspective.
• Lead Business Ontology & Semantics:Work directly with business stakeholders across various departments to define, standardize, and map key business concepts, relationships, and rules (e.g., defining exactly what a customer, transaction, or product lifecycle means across different business units).
• Drive the AI-Ready Data Strategy:Define the business standards and context required to make our data ready for AI applications. You will ensure our data has the logical structure, consistency, and metadata required for AI models to understand it.
• Act as the Business-to-Tech Bridge:Translate complex business rules and semantic models into clear, high-quality functional requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria for engineering teams.
• Stakeholder & Change Management:Champion the adoption of standardized business terms and data structures across the organization. Collaborate with business leaders to ensure their data needs are prioritized and represented.

What We Are Looking For (Requirements)

• 3 to 5 years of experienceas a Product Manager, Product Owner, or Business Analyst working closely with business operations.
• Strong Logical & Conceptual Thinking:Proven experience in logical domain modeling, taxonomy creation, business glossary development, or business process mapping. You know how to organize complex information logically.
• Business-First Mindset:You approach challenges from a business-value, operational efficiency, and customer-experience perspective, not a technology perspective.
• Roadmap Ownership:Experience managing a product backlog, prioritizing initiatives, and managing stakeholder expectations.
• Exceptional Communication: The ability to facilitate workshops with business leaders, ask the right questions to uncover hidden business logic, and clearly document definitions.
