  • Present technical and business solutions to clients and internal teams

What You’ll Bring

  • 4–6 years of product management or strong product delivery in analytics
  • Strong SQL skills, understanding of data pipelines, and integration best practices
  • Familiarity with data governance (e.g., GDPR, POPIA)
  • Working knowledge of APIs, cloud data platforms (Azure preferred), and data visualisation tools (Power BI desirable)
  • Comfort working in agile, fast-paced environments
  • Strong communication skills and a business-value mindset
  • Nice to Have

  • Python or Spark experience
  • Experience in B2B SaaS, data marketplaces, or platform business models
  • Background in regulated industries like finance or healthcare
  • Familiarity with SLAs, data contracts, or enterprise data agreements
  • Azure certifications or interest in pursuing them
  • Advanced degree in a technical or data field
  • What’s On Offer

  • Flexible work (remote or hybrid)
  • Wellness and continuous learning support
  • ESOP, competitive compensation, and team performance incentives
  • Culture built around transparency, innovation, and inclusivity
  • Opportunity to work in a strategic role at the core of data monetisation
  • Company Culture
