Job Description

In addition, the team must act as the first point of contact and responder on all questions related to their final data products (web portal, dashboard, dataset, etc.). Therefore, when it comes to data usage and mere insights or guidance, the team embodies a bridge between UDO and other Ubisoft entities (Global Publishing, International HQ, Production teams, etc.).

• Organize the implementation of solutions to correct the existing situation (via a posteriori processing, but also upstream with governance methods to be developed).
• Implement tools that will make your future tasks easier – you will have the freedom to build on existing tools or create new ones with an automation mindset.

Given the exposure of this position within the Ubisoft organization, we are looking for a profile capable of being pedagogical and assertive to create long-term collaborations.

Your missions on this position are the following:

• You understand the analytical needs of the company's various business lines and their ecosystems;
• You manage and maintain a knowledge base of the various data, their respective business rules and their life cycle. You describe, document and explain data flows;
• You participate in the industrialization of Domains data by identifying sources and needs;
• You establish a roadmap of deliverables and ensure their follow-up;
• You ensure that the data provided to the teams and best practices are well understood.

Qualifications

• You understand business needs and have the ability to make complex information accessible;
• You are a rigorous, organized, pragmatic and persevering person;
• You like to find automated solutions to make your job easier;
• You have excellent interpersonal skills (communication, critical thinking, problem-solving mindset), you know how to collaborate with any type of stakeholder and popularize your explanations if necessary;
• Fluency in English is critical for this role.
