2) Domain Activation & Governance
* Establish domain boundaries and ownership, onboard Data Stewards, and run governance ceremonies with clear RACI.
* Implement data quality metrics/rules, publish domain quality posture, and drive durable remediation at source/product.
* Ensure data sharing & access follow enterprise approval workflows and standardized Data Sharing Agreements.
3) Data Product Portfolio & Reuse
* Build and curate a catalog of domain data products (discoverable, owned, measured), enforcing standards for metadata, lineage, SLAs, and security.
* Drive build vs. reuse decisions and cross‐platform consumption to maximize leverage and reduce duplication.
4) Architecture & Platform Adoption
* Partner with Platform/Data Architects to align solutions to reference architecture.
* Promote guardrails, patterns, and templates to increase delivery speed and consistency while reducing bespoke builds.
5) Leadership & Stakeholder Engagement
* Represent the platforms in Data Council and governance forums; manage cross‐domain dependencies and decisions.
* Lead a small core team and matrix extended squads; set clear objectives, coach for impact, and influence across business and tech.

* Strong stakeholder management; ability to translate strategy into a sequenced, funded roadmap with measurable outcomes.

* Hands‐on expertise with modern data platforms (e.g., Databricks/Delta Lake on AWS, Unity Catalog, Informatica Catalog/MDM, dbt, Azure DevOps, Power BI) and enterprise‐grade data sharing & controls.
* Systems thinker and clear communicator; champions reuse over reinvention; balances pragmatism with standards; influences effectively in a matrix.
* Enterprise data platform based on Databricks Lakehouse (AWS) with Unity Catalog, Informatica (Catalog/MDM), dbt, Azure DevOps, Power BI, and standardized data sharing workflows.
