We are seeking a Data Technology Consultant to help shape and operationalize a robust data product framework. In this role, you will define what constitutes a data product, establish governance structures, and design scalable workflows that empower teams to ingest, publish, and manage data assets with confidence. You will play a pivotal role in fostering a culture of accountability, stewardship, and continuous improvement across the data platform.

Design and implement a transparent ownership model, assigning clear responsibilities and accountability for each data product
Set minimum documentation requirements and quality benchmarks that must be met for every data product, ensuring consistency and reliability across the platform
Collaborate with stakeholders to refine definitions and expectations, integrating feedback to optimize the model

Design simple, repeatable workflows that can be easily followed by users across different teams, reducing friction and promoting best practices
Provide guidance on safe and compliant data handling, emphasizing ease of use while maintaining data integrity
Facilitate training sessions or workshops to onboard users to these processes

Implement discoverability mechanisms (e.g., searchable catalogs, metadata tagging) and develop minimal validation requirements to help users find relevant data products while ensuring essential quality and compliance checks
Establish baseline access control principles and define pragmatic, scalable approaches to data quality management and stewardship, safeguarding data while enabling broad, responsible usage
Design a lightweight governance cadence, such as regular check-ins or reviews, integrating governance activities with platform usage metrics and developing mechanisms for feedback and iteration as the platform matures
