- Establish data quality checks and automated controls to ensure the accuracy, completeness, consistency, and timeliness of data across systems.
- Collaborate with Data Engineering, Product, and other teams to design and implement scalable data quality solutions integrated within data pipelines and platforms.
- Define and track key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure data quality and effectiveness of QA processes, enabling actionable insights for continuous improvement.
- Generate and communicate regular reports on data quality metrics, issues, and trends to stakeholders, highlighting opportunities for improvement and mitigation plans.
- Maintain comprehensive documentation of data quality processes, procedures, standards, issues, resolutions, and improvements to support organizational knowledge-sharing.
- Provide training and guidance to cross-functional teams on data quality best practices, fostering a strong data quality mindset across the organization.
- Lead, mentor, and develop a team of Data QA Analysts/Engineers, promoting a high-performance, collaborative, and innovative culture.
- Provide thought leadership and subject matter expertise on data quality, influencing technical and business stakeholders toward quality-focused solutions.
- Continuously evaluate and adopt emerging tools, technologies, and methodologies to advance data quality assurance capabilities and automation.
- Stay current with industry trends, innovations, and evolving best practices in data quality, data engineering, and analytics to ensure cutting-edge solutions.
