Job Description

We are looking for a Director of Data to establish and lead Monto’s data function from the ground up.

This is a foundational, hands-on role responsible for shaping how data is structured, accessed, and leveraged across the organization. You will build on top of an existing, well-maintained data infrastructure (BigQuery pipelines managed by our engineering team), with a primary focus on turning data into a strategic asset that drives decision-making, operational excellence, and product innovation.

As the first data hire, you will define standards, own the data layer, and create the foundation for a scalable data practice. You will also play a key role in connecting modern data architecture with emerging AI capabilities, including context management, embeddings, and agent-based systems.

What You’ll Do:

• Own and develop Monto’s data layer, including data modeling, organization, and governance (SQL, dbt, BigQuery)
• Design, build, and automate dashboards and reporting frameworks to support business needs
• Serve as the central point of contact for data across the organization, managing and prioritizing data requests
• Identify discrepancies, resolve data quality issues, and drive a clean, reliable, and scalable data environment

Requirements:

• 7+ years of experience in data analytics, data engineering, or related data roles
• Strong expertise in SQL and experience working with BigQuery
• Hands-on experience with dbt or similar data modeling tools
• Proven ability to work cross-functionally and translate data into business impact
• Strategic mindset with the ability to connect data work to company goals
• High level of ownership and independence, ideally as a first or early data hire
• Strong communication skills and ability to work with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
