- You will work closely with the Data Engineering, Data Science, Infrastructure Architecture & Platform teams and will focus on creating blueprints to nourish a culture of engineering excellence. You will report into the Sr. Managing Director Big Data Governance
- Responsible for developing, testing, and generating reports or dashboards from a host of systems and delivering results to clients.
- Plan and conduct comprehensive analytics services including reporting and predictive analytics. Provide expert level technical and project leadership.
- May manage and be a key contributor on multiple projects simultaneously
++Responsibilities++
- Support data engineering needs across the organization, including technical support and training in Big Data frameworks and ways of working, revision and integration of source code, to release and source code quality control
- Designing and producing high-performing, stable end-to-end applications to perform complex processing of batch and streaming massive volumes of data in a multi-tenancy big data platform in the cloud, and output insights back to business systems according to their requirements.
- Design and implement core platform capabilities, tools, processes, ways of working and conventions under agile development to support the integration of data sourcing and use cases implementation, towards reusability, to ease up delivery and ensure standardization across data deliverables in the platform.
- Work with the architecture team to define the strategy for evolving the Big Data
- Evaluate and help determine the technologies to be used on the Big Data Platform. Investigate new technologies for improving and future-proofing the platform. Collaborate on implementation efforts with various technical teams within the organization.
- Responsible for other duties as assigned
- Interview business owners to understand the business problem, questions, and pain points; Collect, analyze and present findings to identify trends, causes, risks and opportunities
- Conversant with qualitative and quantitative techniques, including predictive analysis and visualization
- Develop business applications to provide a comprehensive suite of self-service solutions; may test prototype software and participate in approval and release process for software
- Implement solutions to standardize and systemize routine reports, dashboards, and metrics
- Advocate for and engage in the implementation of data civics, including building data catalogs, documentation efforts, educating stakeholders, and standardizing access to data. Abide by and follow the Harvard University IT technical standards, policies and Code of Conduct
++Basic Qualifications++
