JOB PURPOSE
Own the data backbone of the Group: the platforms through which data is ingested, stored, modeled, governed and made available for analytics, Artificial Intelligence and operational use across Aldar and its subsidiaries.
Establish end-to-end accountability from data platform engineering to operations, building AI-ready foundations and a self-service model that lets Group Digital and the business consume trusted data at speed, without the data platform becoming a bottleneck.
Serve Group Digital's Data & AI teams with data and self-service capabilities; analytics and data science ownership remains with Group Digital.
ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Data Platform Strategy & Architecture:
Define and evolve the Group data platform architecture: ingestion, storage, modeling, processing and serving layers.
Design for reuse, scalability, security-by-design and cost efficiency across the Group and subsidiaries.
Build AI-ready foundations: pipelines, data products and platform capabilities that support advanced analytics and Artificial Intelligence use cases.
Data Engineering & Ingestion:
Own data ingestion from enterprise and subsidiary source systems into the Group data platform, with reliable, monitored pipelines.
Set engineering standards for data pipelines, data products and platform automation.
Ensure database management and storage planning support performance and growth.
Platform Data Governance & Quality:
Implement platform-level data governance: data principles, cataloguing, lineage, quality monitoring and access controls.
Safeguard master data alignment and data reliability for downstream consumers.
Partner with Information Security on data protection controls across the platform.
Serving Group Digital & Self-Service:
Serve Group Digital's Data & AI teams with data and self-service capabilities, with clear interfaces and service commitments.
Enable governed self-service for business and subsidiary teams, balancing autonomy with control.
Provide centralized observability of data flows supporting digital products.
Operations & Reliability:
Ensure availability, performance and cost discipline of the data platform in production.
Establish monitoring, incident management and capacity planning for data services.
Drive FinOps discipline on data platform and storage spend.
Leadership & Talent Development:
Build and lead the Data Platforms team, including data platform and database management capabilities.
Develop data engineering depth and support Emiratization objectives.
What This Role Is Not:
Not an analytics or data science role; those capabilities are owned by Group Digital.
Not a reporting or Business Intelligence delivery function; the role provides the platform others build on.
Not limited to Aldar corporate; the platform serves the Group and its subsidiaries.
This role owns the data backbone on which the Group's analytics and Artificial Intelligence ambitions are built.
RELATED YEAR OF EXPERIENCE
Minimum of 10-12+ years in data platform engineering or data architecture leadership within large, complex organizations.
YOE IN MANAGERIAL POSITION
Minimum of 2+ years of managerial experience in a related field.
FIELD OF EXPERIENCE
Enterprise data platforms at group or multi-entity scale, including cloud data stacks
Data engineering practices, data governance tooling and self-service enablement
Building AI-ready data foundations (pipelines, MLOps-adjacent capabilities) is an advantage
TECHNICAL AND INTERPERSONAL SKILLS
Engineering leader with architectural depth; credible with both engineers and executive stakeholders
Service mindset toward Group Digital and the business: the platform exists to be consumed
Rigorous on data reliability, governance and cost discipline
Comfortable operating at the boundary between technology platforms and digital product teams
QUALIFICATION
Bachelor's degree in a relevant field is required
Master's degree is preferable
