The successful candidate will be responsible for the entire data lifecycle, from establishing a robust data governance framework to leading the modernization of the data ecosystem, including data warehouses, lakes, and ETL pipelines. This role demands a leader who can not only define the data roadmap and vision but also ensure that all data practices align with relevant financial regulations.

A degree in computer science, statistics, or a related field is required, and experience in the crypto or gaming industries is a bonus.
