Bring expertise in tools like Snowflake, Databricks, Azure Synapse, Power BI, and other modern data stack components.
Recruit, mentor, and grow a high-performing team of data engineers, analysts, and consultants.
Support sales efforts by shaping solution approaches, responding to RFI and RFPs, estimating project scope and staffing, and delivering compelling client presentations.
Collaborate closely with other Eigen X practice leads (CRM, PPM) to offer integrated, cross-domain solutions.
Stay current on trends and best practices in data engineering, data governance, cloud platforms, and AI/ML enablement.
