Role Purpose

• As DQ Scientist with Anomaly Detection (Data Error) and Remediation focuses in the Data, Insights & Analytics (DIA) team, you will be responsible for implementing and executing the business led data governance initiatives to hold tight on the quality of the upstream part of the data value chain via intelligent solutions, also with the End to End view and understanding.
• You will need to  “Know the data on both sizes (business and technical)”: understand the business requirements of data quality and translate them to intelligent solutions;  “Do the hands-on”: implement the data quality detection and remediation through automation and intelligent;  and “Live with innovation”: understand the iterative nature of data projects with strong innovation mindsets to think “outside of the boxes” then try/learn/improve.
• This work will require collaboration with multiple stakeholders and data users, including data curator, data engineers, data scientists, functional teams & functional data owners/data stewards, and other Data & Analytics leads part of DIA team.

• Translate the business requirement from idea generation to realization and implementation with the strong Know-how of both sides of the data (Business and Technical) (Data is not just numbers, it is like languages, business talks data in the business way, tech talks data in the technical way, you must be bilingual)
• Explore and try different innovation method to make the DQ process with more intelligence and automation (No one wants to live the world of many surprises (data errors), however, it is avoidable. can you detect them at the time on the place it happens without deploying an army of analysts and engineers?)
• Work with a multidisciplinary team (Data Scientist, Insights Expert, Data Engineer, Data Curator, incl.

• Lead the innovation and improvement of our current Data quality tools and solutions at scale (Just the successful PoC is not enough, can you take it to big?)
• Lead as an example of Data Best practices and continue exploring innovation opportunities for improvements (No one living in a perfect world, but do you dare to challenge yourself and others to make things better, plus we are building solutions to check the quality of other’s works, so the quality and intelligence level of our works must be “sky high”)
