Senior Director, Data Platforms & Governance

Senior Director, Data Platforms & Governance

At Mini Med, you can begin a lifelong career of exploration and innovation, while helping make a difference in the lives of people living with diabetes around the globe. You'll lead with purpose, breaking down barriers to innovation for a more connected, compassionate world.

Mini Med is the only company that commercializes all parts of a connected diabetes ecosystem — insulin pumps, CGMs, smart insulin pens, and data software. For over 40 years, we've reimagined what diabetes technology can do, and our data platforms are foundational to that mission. As we scale intelligent insulin delivery systems globally, the integrity, quality, and governance of our data is what makes it all possible.

In this highly visible, cross-functional leadership role, the Senior Director, Data Platforms & Governance owns the end-to-end data infrastructure that powers Mini Med's analytics, AI, and product innovation capabilities. You will architect and govern the trusted data foundation on which our most critical clinical, commercial, and operational decisions are made — in an FDA-regulated environment where data integrity is not optional.

You will lead three pillars: a Data Engineering organization that builds and operates enterprise-grade pipelines and data products; a Databricks Platform team that owns the lakehouse architecture, Unity Catalog governance, and platform reliability; and a Governance & Master Data function that defines the policies, standards, and MDM frameworks that make data trustworthy s role will directly report to Chief Transformation Officer, and partner with product, engineering, regulatory, and commercial leadership to ensure that Mini Med's data assets are governed, accessible, and fit for AI — from Gen AI foundation readiness to FDA audit traceability.

Responsibilities may include the following and other duties may be assigned.

Data Engineering & Platform

• Lead and scale a cross-functional team of data engineers, platform engineers, and data architects delivering end-to-end data solutions across clinical, commercial, supply chain, and operational domains.
• Architect and own the enterprise data hub — a unified, governed lakehouse integrating structured and unstructured data from ERP, device telemetry, CRM, and third-party sources — serving as the trusted foundation for all analytics, ML, and Gen AI initiatives.
• Own the Databricks platform:
  Unity Catalog governance, workspace management, Delta Live Tables pipeline orchestration, cluster optimization, and cost governance.
• Define and execute the data platform technology roadmap, evaluating emerging capabilities (e.g., Lakeflow, real-time lakehouse, AI Gateway) and building proof-of-concepts that translate to production delivery.
• Establish and enforce platform reliability standards: SLAs, data quality SLAs, MTTR targets, observability, and incident management.
• Drive year-over-year infrastructure cost optimization through architecture rationalization, compute right-sizing, and vendor consolidation.

Data Governance & Master Data Management

• Define and implement Mini Med's enterprise data governance framework — policies, standards, operating models, stewardship roles, and domain ownership structures.
• Own and mature the Master Data Management (MDM) program across critical domains: patient, product, HCP, customer, and device data — ensuring consistency, completeness, and lineage across all systems.
• Establish and operate the data governance council; align business domain leads, IT, legal, privacy, regulatory affairs, and quality on data accountability and stewardship.
• Deploy and manage data governance tooling — data catalog, lineage tracking, data quality rules engines, metadata management — to make governance operational, not theoretical.
• Lead data maturity assessments and build multi-year roadmaps to improve data quality, discoverability, and interoperability across domains.
• Ensure all data practices comply with HIPAA, 21 CFR Part 11, FDA data integrity requirements, and applicable privacy regulations; serve as the data risk owner for audit and regulatory submissions.
