## Description

YipitData's Central Data team sits at the foundation of everything they deliver, building standardized data products, methodologies, and systems that power every downstream business. As a Central Data Lead, you'll own one of these foundational data domains end-to-end, combining deep data expertise, systems thinking, technical leadership, and cross-functional execution.

Responsibilities:

- Own the lifecycle of your data domain: from defining how raw partner data should be processed, validated, tagged, and modeled to ensuring downstream teams can confidently build products on top of it.

- Design reusable methodologies that scale: Identify common business concepts and analytical patterns across Investor, Corporate, and Data Feeds.

- Set analytical and technical direction: Partner with the Technical Product Manager to prioritize investments based on cross-business impact.

- Expand and evolve your domain: Partner with the Data Evaluation team to onboard new datasets.

- Redesign analytical work with AI: Use AI, automation, and emerging tooling to fundamentally improve how data is processed, validated, documented, and maintained.

- Help build the organization: Mentor junior analysts and establish the standards, processes, and culture that define how your domain operates.

Requirements:

- 6-8+ years of experience in data analytics, with a background in fields like financial services, management consulting, data science, or high-growth technology.

- Expert fluency in SQL and experience using Python or PySpark.

- Proven track record of quickly learning complex data methodologies and building strong mental models of how and why data works.

- Led complex, ambiguous projects with multiple stakeholders.

- Skilled at working with messy, inconsistent datasets and evolving schemas.

- Clearly communicate complex concepts and influence cross-functional partners.

What We Offer:

- Competitive salary: $165K-$205K per year.

- Comprehensive benefits, perks, and a generous 401K match.
