Job Title - Data Expert (Data Product / Data Asset)

Location: Canada (remote)

Length: 3-9 month contract to hire

Full-time · Leadership embed · Data products & KPIs

Defines and shapes iX360 data products and data assets — from basic lake objects (purchase orders, job orders, delivery orders, ASNs) through composite KPIs built from those elements. Not an MDM Data Steward: stewards own source masters (account, material, supplier); you consume well-known stewarded sources and produce trusted lake/analytics assets. Embeds by team; Channel Insights first.

AI delivery expectation: Use AI copilots/agents daily to accelerate discovery, build, test, and documentation. Optimize for cycle time and cost-to-outcome vs legacy delivery. Embed automation into quality gates. You remain accountable for production decisions.

What You’ll Do

- Own the meaning, grain, and fitness-for-use of iX360 data products — basic lake objects and the complex KPIs composed from them.
- Partner with CDP PO on Channel Insights outcomes; translate business questions into asset definitions engineers and modelers can build.
- Specify contracts for objects such as purchase orders, job orders, delivery orders, ASNs, and related HVAC channel/service facts — freshness, keys, quality rules, consumer SLAs.
- Design composite KPI logic (definitions, denominators, exceptions) with Analytics Lead; refuse vanity metrics without lineage to basic elements.
- Work loosely with MDM/domain Data Stewards only where needed — source masters they own should already be well known; escalate gaps rather than become the steward.
- Embed with value-stream teams (Insights first; then Claims, CC, Marketing as needed) so data products ship inside discovery/delivery — not a central data ticket queue.
- Partner with Data Modeler (canonical shape) and Data Engineer (pipelines) without owning their craft; you own whether the asset answers the business problem.
- Use AI to draft KPI trees, mapping hypotheses, and data-product docs; verify with sample queries and domain SMEs before production publish.




- Publish living data-product catalogs and “how to use this KPI” guidance so PMs and field leaders consume assets correctly.

What You Bring

- 7+ years in data products, analytics engineering, BI architecture, or domain data expertise for manufacturing / distribution / channel / service
- Proven ownership of lake or warehouse assets and composite KPI suites used in production decisions — not only MDM stewardship or pure ETL tickets
- Fluent in grain, slowly changing dimensions, identity, and KPI composition; can explain a metric from executive slide to source fields
- Comfortable embedding with PMs, modelers, engineers, and analysts; ships definitions and validated samples, not governance theater
- Exposure to Data Lake / enterprise lakehouse patterns and Salesforce Data 360 (or equivalent CDP) a strong plus
- Uses AI as a force multiplier for discovery and documentation; validates every definition with data

Education & Experience

- Bachelor’s in quantitative, engineering, or business field (or equivalent); domain HVAC/manufacturing/channel experience preferred
