As the Director of Data Modelling and Insights at Mastercard, you will play a crucial role in partnering with the Product & Process Transformation team to enhance analytical insights and develop robust data models that drive product execution and strategic decision-making. Your responsibilities will involve leveraging your expertise in Excel, Power Query, and Power BI to structure, clean, and transform data into actionable dashboards, forecasts, and performance metrics. In this position, you will be expected to build and maintain data models using Power BI to facilitate informed decision-making across various product and process initiatives. By utilizing Power Query, you will extract, transform, and cleanse extensive datasets from multiple systems. Additionally, you will design and implement DAX measures to compute metrics, monitor performance, and uncover critical business insights. Your role will also entail leading in-depth analytical investigations into product velocity, pipeline friction, and development timelines through timestamp analysis. Furthermore, you will be responsible for developing Bayesian forecasting models to predict outcomes such as launch timing, completion risk, or capacity shortfalls. Constructing crosstab analyses and experimental frameworks to evaluate the impact of interventions or process modifications will also be part of your duties. Collaboration with cross-functional teams, including product managers, engineers, and finance leads, will be essential to embed data-driven decision-making into everyday operations. Your ability to define measurement frameworks and establish meaningful targets that drive accountability will be instrumental in shaping the company's strategic direction. The ideal candidate for this role holds a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Data Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Economics, or a related field, coupled with at least 8 years of experience in data analytics, business intelligence, or applied statistical modeling. You should possess advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel, including Power Query and advanced functions, as well as in Power BI for data modeling, DAX, and dashboard creation. Demonstrated experience in applying statistical and probabilistic methods, such as Bayesian modeling, within a business context is highly desirable. Strong communication skills, the ability to translate analytical findings into actionable recommendations, and a passion for exploring patterns to make data-driven decisions are key attributes for success in this role. You should be a highly organized systems thinker who can distill complexity into structured models and clear insights. A proactive collaborator who excels in cross-functional environments, building trust through accuracy and timely delivery, will thrive in this position at Mastercard. As a representative of Mastercard, it is imperative that you adhere to the organization's security policies and practices, ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of the information accessed.
