DataBank's managed data center services are anchored in world-class facilities. Our customized technology solutions are designed to help customers effectively manage risk, improve technology performance, and allow focus on core business objectives.

We're looking for a hands-on Director of AI & Data Analytics who still loves getting their hands dirty in code. This isn't a "pure management" role where you sit in meetings all day - You'll spend roughly 50% of your time leading and mentoring your team and other engineering members, and the remaining 50% hands-on, writing SQL, building data pipelines, architecting solutions, and tackling complex technical challenges directly.

You'll be the technical architect and strategic driver of DataBank's data and AI initiatives, turning our mountain of infrastructure, operations, and customer data into actual intelligence that people use. Think : predictive analytics that prevent problems before they happen, AI models that optimize efficiency across data centers, and self-service analytics that make everyone's life easier. The ideal candidate blends technical depth in data architecture, AI / ML engineering, and cloud analytics with a strong business sense for driving measurable outcomes.

Key Responsibilities :

Be the Data Whisperer : Building Business Intelligence & Insights

• Partner with leaders across the business to understand their data challenges (and translate "I need a report" into "here's the insight you actually need")
• Design and model data solutions that enable self-service analytics - because teaching people to fish is way better than becoming the company's fish-delivery service
• Build cross-functional relationships with engineering, product, finance, operations, and marketing teams who all have "just one quick data question" teams to quantify ROI and inform strategic decision-making
• Measure and report key business metrics, operational efficiency, customer growth, and service quality
• Mentor and align business analysts in other departments on their reporting strategies
