  • Cloud & platform delivery: Orchestrate environments, security, and cost controls for Snowflake and Azure (ADF/Fabric, Databricks, Synapse, Key Vault, Purview).
  • Client leadership: Serve as the day-to-day executive contact; run steering committees, manage change requests, and drive stakeholder alignment and adoption.
  • Commercials & quality: Own SOW scope, staffing, and margin; forecast and track budgets; enforce delivery standards and acceptance criteria tied to business KPIs.
  • Enablement: Coach PMs and tech leads; codify playbooks/templates for repeatable delivery; contribute to proposals and pre-sales as needed.
  • Travel to client sites as needed

What You’ll Bring

  • 10+ years of technology delivery with 5+ years leading data platform or analytics programs in consulting/professional services.
  • Proven success managing $1M–$5M+ multi-workstream programs with distributed teams.
  • Hands-on familiarity with Snowflake (warehouses, RBAC, performance/cost tuning) and Azure data services (ADF/Fabric, Databricks, Synapse, ADLS, networking & security).
  • Strong command of agile delivery (Scrum/Kanban), Jira/Azure DevOps, release planning, and CI/CD for data (Git-based workflows, environments).
  • Practical experience implementing medallion architectures and lakehouse patterns, data modeling, and data quality/observability.
  • Stakeholder management at VP/C-suite level; crisp written/oral communication and executive reporting.
  • Nice to have: regulated industries, FinOps for data platforms, data privacy/compliance (GDPR/CCPA), and analytics enablement (Power BI/Fabric).

Preferred requirements

  • BS/MS in CS, IS, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • PMP, PMI-ACP, or SAFe; Snowflake SnowPro; Microsoft Azure (DP-203, AZ-305) a plus.

What Success Looks Like

  • Programs delivered on-time/on-budget with measurable business outcomes (e.g., SLA improvements, cost per query reductions, faster time-to-insight).
  • Stable, secure, and cost-efficient Snowflake/Azure platforms with clear operating models and playbooks.
  • High client satisfaction (CSAT/NPS) and referenceable accounts.

The annual salary for this role ranges from: $170,000 to $225,000 USD + benefits + bonus. Actual compensation packages are determined by evaluating a wide array of factors unique to each candidate, including but not limited to geographic location, skill set, years and depth of experience, education, certifications, cost of labor and internal equity.
