Responsibilities

  • Operational Excellence & Metric Definition (the foundation)
  • Nail the definitions where the traps live: how contraction is treated across GRR vs. NRR, churn vs. downgrade, ACV vs. TCV, new vs. expansion vs. renewal, and how each metric is segmented and rolled up. Make the calculation logic explicit, documented, and consistent everywhere it appears.
  • Establish a "single version of the truth": reconcile conflicting numbers, eliminate ambiguity in how metrics are calculated, and ensure every figure traces back to a clean, documented source.
  • Gather requirements across teams, identify and close data gaps, and turn fuzzy business questions into durable, precise measures.
  • Design and document the analytics/data model for key personas across Turnitin - sellers, sales management, executives, and operations staff.
  • Audit and ensure the cleanliness, completeness, and reliability of data through automated testing and validation.
  • Partner with the Business Planning & Operations group to co-develop and continuously improve reporting and analysis, including preparation for Quarterly Business Reviews.
  • Build automated, repeatable reporting solutions rather

Additional Information

We are seeking a Director, Business Intelligence & Analytics (BIA) to report to the Vice President of Revenue Operations. This is a builder's role for a leader who thinks in systems, treats analytics like a product, and is excited to operate at the frontier of AI-augmented decision-making. A leader who can define what we measure, why it matters, and how every number ties back to a clean, trusted source. Before anything else, this person establishes the foundation the rest of the business runs on: a rigorous set of KPIs, unambiguous metric definitions, sound data models, and a single version of the truth that executives and sellers alike can rely on. Get that right, and everything else compounds. Get it wrong, and no tool or technique can save it. You will own the operational backbone of Revenue Operations analytics - the metrics, the definitions, the governance, and the reporting that leadership uses to run the business. You will gather requirements across teams, reconcile conflicting numbers, close data gaps, and turn fuzzy questions into precise, durable measures. This is the work that makes everything else possible. With that foundation in place, you will modernize how we deliver it. We are migrating from a legacy Redshift/Alteryx/Tableau stack to a modern, code-driven ecosystem built on Redshift, dbt, Dagster, and Airbyte, paired with a next-generation, version-controlled BI layer. The goal is to treat analytics like a well-engineered software product - tested, documented, version-controlled, and built to scale as fast as the business does. This modernization unlocks the next chapter: an AI-augmented function where a strong operational core is amplified by emerging tooling. We believe the analytics team of the next few years will increasingly work from an AI coding cockpit - agentic developer tools like Claude Code and Codex alongside GitHub - to build, review, and ship pipelines, models, and dashboards. On top of well-defined metrics, that opens the door to conversational analytics, AI-generated narratives, and agents that surface and act on insight. The key word is on top of - AI multiplies a solid foundation; it does not substitute for one. The ideal candidate has already moved past the chat window and uses agentic coding assistants to do real engineering work, but reaches for them in service of operational rigor, not in place of it. As the subject matter expert for Business Intelligence and Analytics, you will partner closely with field and operational teams, instituting leading practices that pair analytics-engineering discipline (Git, CI/CD, testing, semantic layers) with self-service access. You will lead a team of Business Intelligence & Analytics Analysts, Analytics/Data Engineers, and Data Quality Specialists. Above all, this is a full-stack, player-coach role - not a hands-off manager. You'll lead a team, but you'll also be in the work: your morning might be deep in data engineering, pairing with Claude Code to refactor a dbt model or debug a Dagster pipeline, and your afternoon might be building and delivering a polished, board-ready presentation that translates that same data into a clear story for the C-suite. We're looking for someone who is equally credible in a terminal and in the boardroom, and who is genuinely energized by the full range - from the plumbing to the podium.
