  • Create a unified data ecosystem across all customer touchpoints, platforms, and departments to support better decision-making and personalization.
  • Create and implement the right machine and AI tech into our operating systems and product technologies.
IT Operations & Cybersecurity
  • Oversee all internal IT systems, cloud infrastructure, and enterprise software—ensuring performance, scalability, and security.
  • Lead cybersecurity and compliance initiatives, including disaster recovery and data privacy.
  • Ensure all systems and operations comply with legal, regulatory, and ethical standards in collaboration with Legal and Compliance.

  • Foster a culture of innovation, velocity, accountability, and cross-functional collaboration.
  • Collaborate with and serve the needs of a highly performing Executive Leadership Team reporting to the COO.
