Job description

🛠️ Full-Stack Data Ownership – Lead the evolution of the BI platform architecture—from raw ingestion layers to sophisticated executive presentation layers.

🛡️ Strategic Governance – Implement the blueprints for data quality, security, and availability, ensuring every design adheres to GDPR and SOX standards by default.
