3. Data Quality

• Collaborate with data stewards and business stakeholders to define data quality rules, monitor quality results, document root causes, track remediation plans, and elevate recurring or high-impact data quality issues.
• Create SQL queries, reports, and dashboards to support data quality monitoring, guest data inquiries, privacy escalations, and stewardship KPI reporting.
• Locate, define, and execute process improvement opportunities that strengthen metadata quality, data quality controls, issue resolution, and stakeholder accountability.
