Job description

Project Overview

The IDC Leadership Dashboard (ILD) is a strategic executive-facing platform that provides IDC leadership with real-time visibility into Data Center supply pipeline, plan of record, rack & region turn-up, operations, energy & power, cost & financials, and security & compliance. The dashboard serves as the single source of truth for IDC decision-making and has recently migrated to the Nest platform with enhanced access controls and data integrations.

Key Responsibilities and Impact

• Facilitate development execution and delivery of the IDC Leadership Dashboard roadmap, ensuring the team delivers on committed milestones across Product, Engineering, Data Science, and Data Engineering workstreams.
• Lead daily stand-ups to track progress, surface blockers, and ensure team alignment on priorities.
• Manage the product backlog including open bugs, feature requests, and enhancement items — ensuring consistent progress and prioritization.
• Coordinate weekly status updates to IDC leadership, ensuring dashboard commentary is accurate, timely, and reflects the latest data and business context.
• Drive cross-functional coordination across Product, Engineering, Data Science, Data Engineering, and business stakeholders to ensure alignment on requirements, data quality, and delivery timelines.
• Own the change control process, ensuring all dashboard content changes receive appropriate sign-off from IDC leads.
• Track and communicate risks, dependencies, and escalations that could impact delivery or data accuracy.
• Ensure communications cadence is maintained — including stakeholder roadshows, feedback loops, and coordination with business area owners (DC Supply, Energy, Operations, Cost, NRTU, Pipeline).
• Support data governance processes by coordinating with data owners to ensure data maturity improvements across business areas.

Must Have Skills

• Experience managing data platform or BI/analytics dashboard programs
• Proficiency with Agile/Scrum methodologies (backlog grooming, sprint planning, daily standups)
• Strong stakeholder communication skills, especially with senior/executive leadership
• Familiarity with data infrastructure concepts (Presto, Hive, dashboards, data pipelines)
• Track record of coordinating cross‑functional teams (Product, Engineering, DS, DE)
• Experience with issue/bug tracking and release coordination

Nice to Have Skills

• Strong stakeholder communication skills, especially with senior/executive leadership
• Excellent written communication for drafting commentary, change logs, and status updates
