Our client is currently modernizing their business through a targeted portfolio of technology initiatives. A critical pillar of this effort is an enterprise-wide project to scale their centralized data repository-the core 'source of truth' powering corporate reporting and insights. Walking into this role, you will drive scrum delivery and bridge the gap between technical execution and business intent. By orchestrating workflows across data engineering pods, business leads, and semantic layer leads, you will ensure the enterprise data foundation is scalable, governed, and ready for high-impact analytics. Important Location Requirement: This role is open only to individuals located in the Chicago, IL area. It operates on a hybrid schedule, requiring you to be in the office Tuesday through Thursday. What You Will Do * Agile/Scrum Leadership: Facilitate daily stand-ups, end-of-day scrum check-ins, and manage structured 2-week sprint cycles across parallel technical and business-facing streams. * Cross-Functional Orchestration: Act as the primary connective tissue between the Business Leads (defining data requirements), Data Engineers (building the ingestion pipelines), and Semantic Layer Leads (structuring data for performance and accessibility). * Execution & Delivery: Shepherd the ingestion, pipelining, and modeling of new enterprise data sources (e.g., integrating SAP, Salesforce) into the centralized cloud data foundation. * Semantic & Data Scaling: Coordinate the deepening and optimization of established data domains with a heavy focus on data quality, standard definition mapping, metrics governance, and business-facing consumption layers. * End-to-End Project Governance: Define, track, and manage comprehensive project schedules, critical path milestones, and key performance indicators (KPIs) to ensure predictable delivery timelines. * Scope & Resource Management: Monitor project scope ruthlessly to prevent scope creep, managing technical backlog refinement and ensuring resources are optimally allocated across technical pods. * Risk & Dependency Management: Proactively identify technical roadblocks, map cross-functional dependencies between engineering and semantic modeling, and deliver actionable, data-driven status updates to project leadership. * Communication & Reporting: Serve as the central point of contact for project status, translating technical velocity and delivery metrics into clear, structured progress reports for stakeholders and leadership. * Culture Alignment: Drive a culture of immediate resolution-jumping into a huddle or sending a quick chat to resolve alignment issues dynamically rather than drawing out decisions over long email threads. ## Related Videos - [Improving quality with Agentic AI with Rovo Dev and Xray](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2005-improving-quality-with-agentic-ai-with-rovo-dev-and-xray) - [The Cloud is Calling: Answer with In-Demand Skills](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/945-the-cloud-is-calling-answer-with-in-demand-skills) - [The user in the eye of the Cargo1492 storm](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/96-the-user-in-the-eye-of-the-cargo1492-storm) - [42 x 2 Canvases Later: Two Years, Two Minds, Many Lessons](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1458-42-x-2-canvases-later-two-years-two-minds-many-lessons) - [A Founder's Journey : From Startup Chaos to Purposeful Growth](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1926-a-founder-s-journey-from-startup-chaos-to-purposeful-growth) - [Diversity as a Growth and Happiness Factor in Agile Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/862-diversity-as-a-growth-and-happiness-factor-in-agile-development) ## Related Articles - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [7 Important Tips That Every Software Developer Should Know](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/101-7-important-tips-that-every-software-developer-should-know) - [What’s the Difference between a Junior, Mid, and Senior Developer?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/238-what-s-the-difference-between-a-junior-mid-and-senior-developer) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers) - [Best Companies to Work For in Berlin: Top 14 Companies in 2023 ](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/188-best-companies-to-work-for-in-berlin-top-14-companies-in-2023) - [Résumé-Driven Development: How IT trends affect the job market for software developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/59-resume-driven-development-how-it-trends-affect-the-job-market-for-software-developers)
