Director, Data Governance & Data Quality

Chandler, United States • Posted on 07/14/2026

  • Salary $180,000 to $200,000 base plus 10% bonus
  • City Chandler
  • State/Province Arizona
  • Country United States
Job Description

The Opportunity: You'll build the client's data governance operating model from the ground up, with direct authority over certification standards, executive escalation paths, and how data trust actually gets enforced across a complex, multi-system environment. This is a builder’s mandate, not a maintenance seat.

Responsibilities:

  • Build and run the Data Trust Council, an executive cadence with real decision rights for critical data domains.
  • Own the critical metric registry and certification framework end to end, so certified data has a clear owner, lineage, and change history.
  • Design the data quality incident process, including root‑cause classification and remediation routing.
  • Create and enforce Data Impact Reviews that govern how source‑system and workflow changes touch certified data and downstream reporting.
Requirements
  • 7+ years in data governance, data quality, or data strategy leadership, with a proven track record building business‑owned governance in a messy, multi-system environment where sources, definitions, and dashboards didn't initially agree.
  • Strong technical fluency with Snowflake, dbt, and modern BI tools (Tableau or comparable).
  • Demonstrated experience designing certification standards, owner/steward models, and source‑change control that changed actual operating behavior, not just documentation.
  • Strong advantage: executive‑level diplomacy translating technical lineage and data‑quality constraints into plain‑language business implications for non‑technical leaders.

Compensation: $180,000 to $200,000 base plus 10% bonus. Full time onsite 4 days/week, Chandler, AZ.

Equal Opportunity Employer. Reasonable accommodations are available.
