• Managing Landing’s ELT stack (Stitch, Snowflake, dbt) and associated monitoring and orchestration tooling, focusing on reliability, performance, and lineage clarity.
• Developing and maintaining a finance and operations data spine, serving as the authoritative source of truth for core executive KPIs, metric definitions, and warehouse logic.
• Defining analytics engineering standards, making tooling decisions, and shaping the long-term roadmap of the data platform.
