Full Job Description

  • Own the design, build and operation of the data pipelines and data models that power all streaming reporting, dashboards and analysis.
  • Establish a single joined view of content and audience performance, by creating a common identity and content spine across behavioural, advertising, marketing and registration data.
  • Own the definition and reconciliation of core streaming metrics and codify the business logic across business systems.
  • Own analytics implementation and tagging governance across all streaming platforms. You'll cover technical specification creation, naming standards and defect prioritisation, working closely with product, technology and QA teams.
  • Establish data quality monitoring, alerting and scorecards across all streaming data sources, with defined thresholds, clear ownership and escalation routes.
  • Establish an experimentation capability, providing templated test setup, instrumentation standards and analysis patterns so that product and marketing teams can run and interpret tests autonomously.

  • Own the technical data roadmap, identifying AI and automation opportunities to improve the accuracy, timeliness and cost of the data stack.
  • Work alongside Skydance data teams as their technical data counterpart, and provide technical direction to the analytics team.
  • Own data governance for streaming datasets, working closely with the privacy and information security teams so that compliance is built into every data workflow.

    Senior level experience in data engineering, including time as the sole or lead technical owner of a data platform, with hands-on delivery alongside roadmap ownership, vendor management and the ability to translate technical constraints for commercial, marketing and editorial stakeholders.
  • Expert SQL and Python, with production experience designing, building and operating ETL/ELT pipelines at scale.
  • Deep hands-on experience of a modern cloud data warehouse and its associated transformation and orchestration tooling.
  • Strong working knowledge of digital and product analytics platforms, including event tracking implementation across web, mobile and connected TV.
  • Demonstrable experience joining behavioural, advertising and CRM datasets, and resolving identity and metric definitions across sources that count users differently.
  • Track record of establishing data quality monitoring, governance and trusted metric definitions in an environment where none previously existed.
  • Practical knowledge of A/B testing methodology and statistical analysis, with experience building experimentation capability for non-technical teams.
  • Nice to have
  • Background in streaming, broadcast or media, with a working understanding of streaming and commercial performance metrics.
  • Experience of advertising, attribution and quality-of-experience platforms.
  • Experience applying machine learning to churn, propensity, segmentation or recommendation problems.
