• Experience integrating and modeling data from GTM systems such as CRM, marketing automation, billing, and customer success platforms.
• Demonstrated ability to translate business workflows into durable data models that teams can rely on for decision-making.
• Comfortable operating in early-stage environments with messy, incomplete, or inconsistent data.
• Strong cross-functional communication skills and ability to work closely with sales, marketing, CS, finance, and product teams.

Responsibilities

• Build a reliable GTM data layer that enables marketing, sales, CS, and finance teams to self-serve key insights without ad hoc analysis.
• Establish data quality, governance, and monitoring practices to ensure accuracy and reliability across the data stack.
• Create cross-functional intake and prioritization processes for data requests, balancing infrastructure work with business needs.
• Partner closely with GTM, finance, product, and engineering teams to understand their workflows and translate them into durable data systems.
