Lead and grow the team: Manage and mentor the existing analytics and BI team while developing a hiring roadmap to strategically expand capabilities over time.
Drive self-service adoption: Champion a culture of data-driven decision-making by designing and rolling out the Omni-based self-service experience.

Shape the modern BI platform: Work alongside data engineering to define how analytics are built and consumed on Databricks and Omni.
