What you’ll do

  • Own and continuously evolve the NGDI data catalogue metamodel, covering data assets, data products, data contracts, domains, markets, critical data elements, lineage, and ownership.
  • Enable end‑to‑end discovery of network data products by ensuring consistent and complete metadata across the data lifecycle.
  • Design and support automated metadata ingestion and lifecycle workflows, including onboarding, certification, change management, and decommissioning.
  • Embed governance, privacy, security, and artificial intelligence compliance by design through metadata controls, classifications, and approval workflows.
  • Act as an operational interface between data governance, data quality, and data engineering teams to embed governance best practices into daily delivery.

Who you are

  • Experienced in working with enterprise data catalogues, ideally Collibra, including metamodel configuration and workflow design.
  • Knowledgeable in metadata management, data lineage, and data product concepts within cloud‑based environments.
  • Familiar with data governance operating models, including stewardship, domain ownership, and federated delivery.
  • Comfortable working with data quality concepts such as profiling, certification, critical data elements, and quality rules.
  • A collaborative professional who can work effectively across engineering, governance, and business stakeholders.
  • Hold a degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent practical experience in data management, with 3–5 years of relevant professional experience.
  • Additional certifications such as DAMA‑CDMP or Google Cloud Platform are beneficial but not essential.
