Job description

In This Role, Your Responsibilities Will Be:

Data Workstream Execution & Requirements Delivery

• Lead assigned data workstream activities and coordinate with the Core Team to ensure Salesforce data requirements are understood, prioritized, delivered, validated, and documented
• Translate business process needs into clear data requirements, field definitions, validation expectations, migration rules, and acceptance criteria
• Support data migration, cleansing, enrichment, deduplication, validation, and cutover readiness activities across implementation waves
• Coordinate data issue triage, root-cause analysis, ownership assignment, remediation tracking, and closure reporting
• Maintain data dictionaries, field inventories, decision logs, standards documentation, and stewardship artifacts for assigned domains

Standards, Governance & Quality Controls

• Ensure assigned Salesforce data remains aligned to data quality, data security, data compliance, and global reporting standards
• Serve as arbiter for data model, field, and definition changes that impact global standards, reporting definitions, integrations, or cross-Business Group consistency
• Define and enforce data standards, naming conventions, field-level governance rules, required values, ownership rules, and quality thresholds
• Monitor data quality metrics, identify recurring issues, and drive remediation with business owners, technical teams, and Data Cloud Hygiene leadership
• Collaborate with Integration leads to validate data flow integrity, transformation rules, source-of-truth decisions, and downstream reporting impacts
• Partner with the Data Cloud Hygiene Manager on compliance reporting, audit support, data retention considerations, masking requirements, and quality improvement initiatives
• Support business readiness by explaining standards, training users, documenting expectations, and reinforcing stewardship practices
• Escalate unresolved data conflicts, quality risks, or standards exceptions through the appropriate governance forums
  

Who You Are:

You bring order to complex data work by turning standards, definitions, and requirements into repeatable execution (Plans and Aligns; Ensures Accountability). You are detail-oriented without losing the broader business context, and you can see how a field definition, duplicate record, or data model change may affect reporting, integration, security, and user adoption (Manages Complexity; Decision Quality). You collaborate effectively with business users and technical teams, communicate requirements clearly, and help resolve data conflicts in a constructive, standards-driven way (Collaborates; Communicates Effectively; Interpersonal Savvy). You are persistent in improving data quality because you understand that trusted data is foundational to Northstar success (Drives Results).

For This Role, You Will Need:

Technical Skills:

• Salesforce data model, schema design concepts, object relationships, field definitions, validation rules, and reporting impacts
• Data quality tools, data profiling, duplicate management, monitoring, issue tracking, and remediation workflows
• Data migration and ETL concepts, including mapping, transformation, cleansing, enrichment, validation, and cutover support
• Salesforce Data Cloud fundamentals and how stewardship decisions affect identity resolution, segmentation, reporting, and AI readiness
• SQL, Excel, reporting, or analytical tools used to profile data, investigate quality issues, and validate remediation
• Data privacy, security, compliance, access control, and audit support concepts

Interpersonal and Leadership Skills:

• Analytical thinking, attention to detail, and discipline in documenting decisions and standards
• Collaborative approach across business and technical teams, with the ability to explain data concepts to non-technical stakeholders
• Conflict resolution skills when data standards, field definitions, or ownership expectations differ across teams
• Process orientation and follow-through on issue remediation, migration readiness, and quality improvement actions
• Comfort escalating risks clearly and constructively through governance channels when standards or delivery outcomes are at risk

Required Certifications:

• Salesforce Data Cloud certification required
• Salesforce Administrator, Platform App Builder, data quality, MDM, analytics, or business analysis certifications valued

Preferred / Nice-to-Have:

• Manufacturing or industrial data management experience
• Salesforce-to-ERP data synchronization experience
• Master Data Management background or exposure to enterprise customer/master data programs
• Experience supporting Salesforce data migration, consolidation, enrichment, or global template programs

Preferred Qualifications That Set You Apart:

• Bachelor's degree required in Information Systems, Business, Data Management, Analytics, Engineering, or a related field
• 5+ years of experience in data management, data stewardship, data quality, business analysis, data migration, or enterprise systems roles
• Experience working with Salesforce data models, field governance, data migration, data quality controls, or CRM data operations
• Ability to document clear data standards, definitions, rules, requirements, and issue-resolution processes
• Strong analytical, communication, and collaboration skills with attention to detail and process discipline
• Approximately 10-20% travel (global)
