Concurrently, this leader will aggressively spearhead our AI transformation roadmap, deploying agentic frameworks and workflows to drive unprecedented operational efficiencies, remove manual reporting bottlenecks, and automate cross-functional metrics across regional and global operations.

Operational Modernization: Modernize traditional reporting mechanisms across divisions by establishing automated workflows that deliver predictive insights natively within standard operational software.

Advanced Analytics & Business Intelligence: Serve as the executive product owner for Tableau (Cloud and Server environments), establishing enterprise semantic layers, unified metadata definitions, and master data guidelines.
Data Repository & Cube Optimization: Supervise the maintenance, performance tuning, and structural scaling of multidimensional data repositories (OLAP cubes, data lakes, and modern lakehouse frameworks) to ensure sub-second query performance for highly complex reporting dashboards.

3. Change Management & Cross-Functional Leadership

Matrix Stakeholder Alignment: Partner extensively with business owners across Sales, Supply Chain Management (SCM), Revenue Operations, and Finance to align analytical models and standardize data governance protocols.
Data Culture Cultivation: Lead technical change management frameworks to upskill business units, transitioning standard business analysts away from manual data preparation toward AI-assisted self-service analytical pipelines.

4. Team Leadership & Talent Engineering

Manage Talent: Lead, recruit, and mentor a high-performing team consisting of senior data engineers, BI architects, platform managers, and AI workflow optimization specialists.
Culture of Agility: Foster a culture of technical agility, continuous learning, and strict data privacy compliance across all AI operations.
