The role / impact
You will lead the modernization of our marketing data platform and drive the integration of artificial intelligence across our data products. Operating independently, you will bridge the gap between complex engineering systems and business needs, ensuring our foundational architecture supports sophisticated data science and analytics. Your focus will remain on dismantling data silos and replace legacy frameworks with highly scalable, real-time data solutions.
Your impact will be felt globally as you collaborate with commercial stakeholders to translate business strategies into actionable deliverable requirements. By balancing long term architectural transformation with incremental high-value product deliveries, you will empower teams to make confident data-driven decisions. Ultimately your work will direct influence how internal teams and external customers interact with our intelligence systems.
The team / how they connect
You will join multidisciplinary team of approximately fifty specialists including data engineers, data scientists, applied scientists, market insights professionals, and economic researchers. This collective manages the go-to-market data engineering, science, and research capabilities across Australia, New Zealand, the UK, and the US. Together they function as a collaborative network focused on re-evaluating and modernizing our data stack to deliver deep intelligence.
Initially, you will focus on:
* Navigate and upgrade fifteen year old architectural framework into modern data ecosystem.
* Unify fragmented duplicated data sources to establish single trusted source of truth for business.
* Collaborate with data engineering and applied science leads to embed AI capabilities into frontline workflows.
* Partner with sales marketing and customer support business units to outline and deliver immediate reporting enhancements.
Where and how you can work
This position is ideally based in Melbourne to maintain close proximity to core engineering team, though applicants located anywhere along East Coast of Australia are welcome. We support hybrid working model that blends remote flexibility with collaborative in-office connection. You can expect designated boost days to join colleagues in dedicated office spaces for collaborative sessions, team activities, and workshops.
Here are some of the things we are looking for:
* Deep technical familiarity with complex large-scale big data systems and real-time data products.
* Proven ability to communicate sophisticated data concepts clearly to senior leadership and non-technical stakeholders.
* Experience operating autonomously in ambiguous environments making confident decisions without a clear cut path forward.
* Skill in managing conflicting priorities from demanding business units such as marketing and sales.
* Strong commercial mindset with background handling marketing or sales data portfolios.
* Comfort partnering closely with cross-functional engineering and data science panels to assess technical feasibility.
