- Developer & API Enablement: Design self-service data access patterns, clean schemas, and APIs so product and engineering teams can easily ingest and consume data without friction.
Enable Data Across Products- Partner with SaaS Product Managers to define metrics, event tracking, and data requirements during the discovery, design, and delivery stages of all product features.
- Collaborate with engineering and analytics to standardize event tracking, logging, schema design, and integration touchpoints.
- Build frameworks and best practices that improve how product teams plan, instrument, track, and learn from data
Strengthen Data Governance & Quality- Establish consistent definitions, taxonomies, and central data modeling for core product and business metrics.
- Partner with engineering and analytics to ensure data lineage, quality, security, and completeness across the central data platform.
- Introduce enterprise standards for data documentation, ownership, cataloging, and schema change management.
- Promote a culture of data stewardship across both technical and non-technical teams.
Drive Data-Driven Decision Making & AI Readiness- Create visibility into product and business performance through reliable central dashboards and reporting layers.
- Collaborate with executive leadership, CS, Operations, and Finance to ensure business-critical decisions rely on trusted, unified platform data.
- Lead the long-term data strategy for AI/ML readiness-building the clean infrastructure and pipeline foundations needed to power future intelligent product features and predictive analytics.
