Job description

Head of Data Infrastructure & Analytics (Fully Remote | Up to 200,000 USD/annum base)

Position: Head of Data Infrastructure & Analytics

Compensation: Up to USD $200,000 per annum + up to 25% Performance Bonus (Equivalent in local currency, based on your location)

Total Annual Package: Up to USD $254,800

Location: Remote

Role Overview

We’re seeking a systems‑obsessed data infrastructure leader to architect the analytics foundation that powers strategic decisions across our high‑growth D2C business. This role is for builders who get more excited about preventing data disasters than presenting insights.

You’ll take the helm of our e-commerce data operations, leading a team that ensures data reliability drives confident decision‑making. Working closely with our Forbes Council Member CEO and cross‑functional teams, you’ll establish the gold standard for analytics operations while enabling data‑driven growth in a competitive global market.

What Is In It For You

This isn’t just another analytics leadership role. This is your chance to become a true industry architect.

Build Systems That Matter, Not Presentations That Don’t

Most analytics leaders spend their days making slides and telling stories. You’ll spend yours architecting infrastructure that handles $24M+ in annual ad spend with zero tolerance for errors. You’ll implement automated validation systems, data observability frameworks, and monitoring that catches bugs before humans see them. You’ll solve data quality problems once, systematically, and watch your systems scale internationally. If you’d rather build bulletproof pipelines than polish executive decks, this is your role.

Own the Technical Stack That Prevents Fires, Not Fights Them

You’ve fought data disasters. Here, you’ll build the systems that prevent them. Architect server‑side tracking for attribution accuracy. Implement data observability that alerts you within minutes, not days. Create the QA processes and validation frameworks that become the industry standard. This is your chance to build the data infrastructure you wish existed at your last company—and scale it for international expansion.

What You’ll Own

Data Quality Infrastructure (Your #1 Priority)

Audit existing tracking setup (GA4, GTM, Shopify, Klaviyo, ad platforms) and fix every configuration error
Build automated validation systems that catch bugs before humans see them
Implement pre‑leadership QA processes with hard gates (reports don’t go out until they pass)
Create monitoring and alerting: know within minutes when tracking breaks, not days later

Technical Architecture & Reliability

Design and maintain server‑side tracking implementation for attribution accuracy
Architect data pipelines that handle $2M+ monthly ad spend tracking without errors
Establish technical standards: "Here’s how we ALWAYS configure X" documentation

Operational Excellence

Build the QA checklist: specific validation steps before any report reaches the CEO
Implement data observability: automated anomaly detection, metric health dashboards
Create runbooks: when X breaks, here’s exactly how to fix it in under 2 hours
Enforce zero‑tolerance culture: accuracy over speed, every time
Manage existing Analytics Manager + 2 Data Specialists with focus on quality over quantity
Train team on proper setup procedures and validation protocols
Say "no" to ad‑hoc requests that compromise data quality
Build scalable processes: solve problems once, systematically

Strategic Projects (Once Quality is Bulletproof)

Implement advanced attribution models for multi‑channel $24M+ annual ad spend
Scale analytics infrastructure for international expansion

What You’ll Need

Must‑Have Technical Chops

7+ years in digital analytics with proven track record of owning data quality in high‑stakes B2C environments
Expert‑level knowledge: GA4, GTM, server‑side tracking, data pipeline architecture, e‑commerce tracking
Can diagnose and fix tracking setup errors across the entire stack – you don’t just identify problems, you solve them
Strong technical skills: SQL expert (can write complex queries in your sleep), Python or R proficiency for data validation
Data engineering knowledge: Understand ELT, data warehousing, API integrations, event‑driven architecture
Experience building data quality systems: Automated validation checks, data observability, monitoring frameworks

The Operational Mindset

You’re a builder, not a presenter: More excited about architecting systems than making slides
Zero‑bug mentality: You take it personally when bad data gets through
Process‑driven: You document, systematize, and scale solutions
Comfortable saying no: Protect data quality even when it’s politically inconvenient
Firefighter turned fire‑preventer: You’ve dealt with data disasters and built systems to prevent them

Leadership & Communication

Proven team leadership: Can manage 3+ person analytics team with focus on quality and growth
Can explain technical issues to non‑technical executives without dumbing it down or over‑complicating
Enforce standards: Your team knows accuracy is non‑negotiable
Cross‑functional influence: Work with engineering, marketing, and product to fix data at the source

Red Flags (Don’t Apply If This Is You)

You want to focus on strategic insights and executive storytelling
You prefer analysis over building systems
You think "good enough" data is acceptable
You can’t explain how server‑side tracking actually works
You’ve never built a data validation framework

Good‑to‑Have

You've done this before:

"I reduced data quality incidents by 90% at [Company] by implementing [specific systems]"
"I architected the tracking infrastructure that handled $XXM in ad spend with 99.9% accuracy"
"I built automated validation that caught errors before they reached leadership"
"I led the server‑side tracking migration that solved our attribution problems"

Bonus Points For:

Experience with data observability tools (Monte Carlo, Great Expectations, dbt tests)
Background in analytics engineering or data reliability engineering
Track record in high‑growth e‑commerce (sleep, wellness, DTC)
Experience with attribution modeling for multi‑channel marketing
Built data quality systems that scaled internationally
