priorities, and critical reporting or period-close schedules.\nCoordinate with data engineering, platform, security, and governance teams to resolve operational issues and maintain clear ownership across service boundaries.\nSupport onboarding of new data services by validating support requirements, monitoring coverage, runbooks, knowledge transfer, and acceptance criteria.\nCommunicate service status, incidents, business impact, recovery estimates, and improvement progress clearly to stakeholders and management.\nData Quality & Continuous Improvement\nWork with data owners to define and maintain operational checks for completeness, accuracy, validity, consistency, and timeliness of critical datasets.\nIdentify recurring data and process issues; maintain a prioritized improvement

supporting data workloads on at least one major cloud platform (Azure, AWS, or GCP), including monitoring, troubleshooting, and access controls.\nStrong SQL skills and understanding of ETL/ELT processes, relational databases, data warehouses, and data lake or lakehouse environments.\nExperience with data orchestration and processing tools relevant to the environment (e.g., Airflow, Azure Data Factory, Spark, dbt, or Kafka), including failure diagnosis and recovery.\nWorking knowledge of Python or shell scripting, APIs, file-based integrations, logging, and monitoring tools to automate checks and investigate data flow issues.\nUnderstanding of data quality, reconciliation, lineage, role-based access, sensitive-data handling, and enterprise governance requirements.\nOperational & Delivery Skills\nProven ability to manage production data services against SLAs, prioritize incidents by business impact, and coordinate effective service restoration.\nExperience with incident, problem, and change management, release support, runbooks, and root-cause analysis; familiarity with ITIL, DevOps, or DataOps practices.\nAbility to interpret operational metrics, identify performance and capacity issues, and coordinate improvements with engineering and platform teams.\nDomain & Functional Knowledge\nExposure to corporate finance processes (P2P, O2C, R2R, and FP&A), finance data
