Position Summary
Vensure is seeking a visionary yet deeply technical Associate Vice President of Innovation - Data Analytics to lead the design, development, and evolution of enterprise data architecture with a particular emphasis on database engineering, data warehousing, and data integrity to enable corporate reporting and AI technology solutions.

• Assess, implement, and optimize solutions like Snowflake, Azure SQL, UDC, or other custom database platforms as needed.
• Evaluate and implement strategies like read replicas, ETL pipelines, and API integrations to support reliable data access without disrupting source systems (e.g., ClientSpace).
• Develop and manage a data lake / warehouse strategy that supports AI readiness, predictive analytics, and automation.

Data Integrity

• Oversee efforts to eliminate data silos, resolve ID mismatches (e.g., PEOID discrepancies), and ensure synchronization across platforms.
• Design and enforce best practices for data hygiene, validation, and mapping logic across the enterprise.

Governance, Security & Compliance

• Establish standards for data governance, including access controls, data classification, confidentiality, and auditability.
• Ensure data solutions comply with internal security standards and any applicable legal or regulatory requirements.
• Partner with IT and Security to align infrastructure with data protection and cybersecurity protocols.

Strategic Innovation and AI Enablement

• Build the data backbone required to enable advanced analytics, AI models, and process automation across departments.
• Support business units in evaluating and piloting AI/ML initiatives, ensuring data pipelines and platforms are aligned with future needs.
• Identify and recommend opportunities for tool commercialization to Prism clients.

Cross-Functional Collaboration and Leadership

• Act as a strategic partner to leaders in Finance, HR, IT, Operations, and beyond to drive enterprise-wide data solutions.
• Serve as a Center of Excellence (CoE) for best practices in database engineering, analytics, and data architecture.
• Provide technical mentorship and guidance to data engineers, analysts, and cross-functional teams.

Vendor & Tool Evaluation

• Evaluate and recommend third-party tools, platforms, and services related to data warehousing, BI, and integration.
• Complete alternative identification, cost-benefits analyses, gap analyses, and RFPs as needed related to third-party data services and technology.
• Lead or participate in vendor negotiations and manage external partnerships, as necessary.

Qualifications
Required

• 15+ years of experience in data engineering, database architecture, or data analytics, including at least 5 years in a leadership role.
• Proven experience designing and managing enterprise-grade data warehouses (Snowflake, Azure, etc.).
• Deep knowledge of SQL, ETL design, data modeling, and integration methodologies (APIs, etc.).
• Demonstrated experience implementing data governance, security frameworks, and access control mechanisms.
• Ability to assess and optimize cloud cost structures (e.g., Snowflake storage vs. compute).
• Excellent strategic thinking, with the ability to balance near-term delivery with long-term scalability.
• Exceptional communication skills, especially in translating complex technical issues into business context.

Preferred

• Familiarity with tools and systems like ClientSpace, Prism, iSolved, Salesforce, and other payroll or CRM platforms.
• Experience with AI/ML model enablement or automation tools (e.g., RPA, scripting).
• Experience integrating with global payroll platforms and managing data across international systems.
