ABOUT CITYLITICS INC.

Citylitics delivers predictive intelligence on local utility & public infrastructure markets
What is Infrastructure? It is the roadways you rely on to safely get to Grandma’s house, it’s the potable water that comes out of your kitchen tap that you wash your family’s food with and it’s the energy that heats our homes and powers our digital lifestyles.
Every year, trillions of dollars are spent on all areas of infrastructure to maintain our quality life and move our economy forward. However, our infrastructure is no longer equipped to meet the needs of the future. We hear about infrastructure failures, whether bridge collapses, power blackouts, or water main breaks, every day in the news. Climate change and extreme weather events are disrupting the basic infrastructure we took for granted for years.
Citylitics is solving the hardest data problems in infrastructure while building the sales intelligence platform that enables a faster, more transparent, and more efficient infrastructure marketplace. We turn millions of unstructured documents into high value intelligence feeds and datasets that are available on an intuitive user experience. Our goal is to enable solution providers to connect with cities with relevant infrastructure needs in a faster and more digital way than historic market channels. As more companies adopt our platform, cities & utilities will be able to access solutions that deliver on the promise of moving towards a more resilient, sustainable, and equitable infrastructure future.

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

Are you a leader who thrives on transforming data into powerful solutions? Do you love building and guiding teams to achieve exceptional results? If so, we’re looking for you!
We’re searching for a Director of Data to lead four critical teams: Data Quality, Data Delivery, Custom Expansions, and Datasets. You’ll own the data strategy, guaranteeing superior data quality, efficient delivery, and scalable growth to proactively address customer demands.
This isn’t a hands-on coding role, but your deep understanding of data best practices and engineering principles will be key. You’ll partner closely with our Data Engineering team, ensuring they build the robust data pipeline infrastructure your teams need to succeed.

REQUIREMENTS

  • Proven Leadership: True leadership experience (Director/Head of Data Operations/Delivery) in a data-focused software company.
  • Team Development: Strong track record of managing and mentoring high-performing data teams.
  • Change Management: Proven ability to lead and drive significant cross-functional change.
  • Strategic Technical Acumen: Deep understanding of data architecture, warehousing, and data processing pipelines; ability to guide Data teams strategically with emphasis on scalability, efficiency, and security.
  • Data Expertise: Extensive experience with data quality frameworks, governance, and strategy. Experience with Google Cloud or AWS is an asset.
  • Strategic Planning: Ability to analyze data, forecast needs, and plan resources effectively.
  • Analytical Mindset: Detail-oriented, strategic thinker who translates challenges into solutions.
  • Exceptional Communication: Outstanding organizational, presentation, and interpersonal skills.
  • Team Builder: Experience establishing and growing diverse data teams (remote, onshore, offshore).
  • Stay Current: Keep up with industry trends and emerging technologies to inform our data strategy.
