About the Role

helvetica arial sans-serif font-size 10pt Are you a curious builder who thrives in a fast-moving data-driven execution role curious about how AI can turn quality data into real operational trust? /

helvetica arial sans-serif font-size 10pt Veeam s business runs on data flowing from four source systems v-Power for Sales Marketo for;Marketing NetSuite for Finance and Workday for through a governed Databricks Lakehouse to certified outputs consumed by Tableau dashboards and AI agents. The Senior Director AI-Ready Data Governance has authored the strategy for how this gets governed a federated pragmatic model central standards distributed ownership sequenced by outcome so scope is committed on evidence rather than ambition.;Continuous agent-driven scoring keeps watching a certified object s quality on an ongoing basis well past the moment of sign-off. /

helvetica arial sans-serif font-size 10pt This is a builder and execution role;for a deep subject matter expert with full autonomy to move fast and deliver results. You will lead;highly complex high-visibility initiatives shape the approach to problems that arrive ambiguous and influence organizational direction through the standards you set. The strategy mission and vision are set. The job is to run Databricks Unity Catalog as the technical backbone and Atlan as the business-facing catalog on top of it build the certified Bronze-to-Silver-to-Gold;pipeline domain by domain and make certification lineage and continuous scoring real enough that governance becomes a standing rhythm rather than a one-off exercise. AI tooling is moving fast;enough;that the sequence of what gets built;when;will keep shifting. What does not shift is the outcome bar certified data a live trust score behind it and a named owner for both. /

helvetica arial sans-serif font-size 10pt This is a job for someone who is curious by default. Someone who would rather have an agent draft the first pass of a lineage map than wait for a meeting about it who gets energy from ambiguity because the pace of AI tooling means the plan will keep changing and who treats data quality as something they are personally accountable for at every level source system to dashboard to agent output ahead of whatever a report tells them after the fact. /
