- Define and execute the team's AI roadmap across forecasting, scoring, and commercial analytics, identifying opportunities for LLM-powered insights, conversational analytics, automated workflows, and agentic solutions that create measurable business value.
- Design and deploy AI agents within Sales, Finance, and go-to-market workflows, including automated account and deal insights, forecast variance alerts, scoring explanations, and other decision-support capabilities, with clear standards for accuracy, governance, security, and adoption.
- Evaluate build-versus-buy decisions for AI and analytics technologies, balancing speed, cost, security, scalability, and long-term flexibility while providing clear recommendations to senior leadership.

- Identify high-value analytical opportunities proactively, lead complex organization-wide data transitions and knowledge transfers, and ensure analytical initiatives progress from problem definition through adoption and measurable business impact.
- Represent AI-enabled analytics initiatives in broader AI and automation forums, bringing relevant emerging technologies, patterns, opportunities, and risks back into the team's strategic roadmap.
Requirements:
- 10+ years of experience in analytics, data science, data engineering, or a closely related discipline, including at least 4 years of people management experience.
- Deep expertise in Snowflake, SQL, dbt, and modern data-stack technologies, with experience using platforms such as Omni, Power BI, Hex, or comparable BI and semantic-layer solutions.
- Hands-on experience with LLM-powered analytics, conversational analytics, AI agents, or automated workflows built on governed data models, with the ability to distinguish practical business value from experimental AI use cases.
- Proven experience building and managing distributed teams that combine onshore and offshore talent across multiple time zones while maintaining quality, security, accountability, and strong stakeholder relationships.
- Strong understanding of statistical modeling, predictive analytics, machine learning concepts, and their practical application to commercial and go-to-market use cases.
