Job Description
You will build and lead the team that turns DZ's data into something the business can actually run on. DZ operates across several verticals and markets: digital goods, ticketing, travel and trading, in Iraq, the UAE and KSA. Each has grown its own reporting, its own metric definitions and its own version of the numbers, so basic questions take days and the answers do not always agree. You will hire the team, own the data platform end to end, from ingestion through warehouse and modelling to the analytics layer on top, and make trusted data a capability the rest of the org can rely on rather than a queue it waits behind.
What you'll do

- Own the technical strategy and architecture for the data platform: ingestion from operational systems and third parties, warehouse and modelling layer,
