Asset & Wealth Management – Data Mesh Platform Product Owner (Business Owner) - Executive Director

The Analytics & Applied AI team within the Chief Data & Analytics Office (CDAO) of the Global Private Bank is responsible for unified data products — data products that cut across multiple core data domains — and for the federated data mesh platform that produces and distributes them. The team operates a multi-pod delivery model spanning core analytics, applied AI, data engineering, visualization, and regulatory analytics, all underpinned by a federated data mesh and its distribution points.

As a Data Mesh Platform Product Owner within the Chief Data & Analytics Office you will hold the internal product and business ownership of the firm's federated data mesh platform and its distribution points — Snowflake, Starburst, and Databricks — as they serve data producers and consumers within the Global Private Bank.

You will own the internal product strategy and business outcomes of how these distribution points serve data producers and consumers, and coordinates closely with the firmwide Snowflake CDAO product team for approvals and firm-wide enhancements.

A central mandate of this role is to improve and accelerate the data producer onboarding experience to the data mesh. Success means measurably reducing time-to-onboard and ultimately accelerating the creation of unified data products that span multiple core domains.
