### Overview

Data Foundations, part of Business & Market Insights, solves shared data problems for Mastercard's analytics products: secure customer data exchange, consistent business definitions and metrics, reference datasets, data quality and AI-assisted customer data onboarding.

Your first challenge is reliable ingestion of customer and third-party data, while moving established pipelines from manual effort to cloud automation. You will spend 40-50% of your time hands-on. In your first few months you will baseline what the team runs, close the riskiest gaps and deliver the first measurable cut in manual onboarding work.

- Set and uphold standards for testing, release, data quality and security, with clear owners, monitoring and service-level objectives for production services; lead major incidents through to root cause.
- Plan capacity across employees and contractors, hold vendors to clear deliverables, and work with business operations on customer onboarding.
- Communicate progress, risks and decisions to senior leaders, and help the team use AI tools where they genuinely improve speed or quality. All

### About You
- Experience managing engineers, including performance management and career development.
- Strong product judgement and a record of shaping what is built, not just delivering it.
