The role will coordinate across Product, Engineering, Data Governance, Operations, and Client Delivery teams to support the full data-product lifecycle, from intake and prioritization through certification, documentation, delivery, adoption, and ongoing change management. The successful candidate will combine strong data-management knowledge with practical execution skills. They will help establish clear operating standards, bring visibility to cross-team dependencies, and ensure data products are governed, documented, and ready for use by internal and external consumers.
