We are drawn to people who stay curious, move with intent, and never stop inventing. Our culture runs on three values: better together, relentlessly curious, and get sh*t done. It is how we work, how we grow, and how we make things that matter. At DEPT®, you will find the freedom to explore, the space to collaborate, and the trust to make a real impact for our clients, for each other, and for the world we are helping to build. THE ROLE: We are looking for a Director, Data Technology to serve as the strategic and technical anchor for the data and measurement ecosystem behind our client work. This is a builder's leadership role, and you are equal parts data engineering leader and marketing technology expert. You understand how modern data platforms are architected, governed, and scaled; how semantic and analytical layers enable trusted decision-making; and how the infrastructure, automation, and operational processes underneath them run reliably at scale. You are equally fluent in marketing technology and measurement strategy. You understand how customer interactions become measurable signals, how consent and privacy requirements shape data collection, and how those signals flow through an organization's technology ecosystem to support activation, optimization, and business intelligence. You'll own the full signal-to-insight lifecycle, from data capture and collection, through identity, consent, and measurement frameworks, into data pipelines, modeling, governance, and ultimately the reporting and analytical experiences that drive business decisions. This role is accountable for ensuring every layer of the ecosystem works together as a cohesive, scalable, and trustworthy platform. At DEPT®, we take an engineering-first approach to solving business problems with data.

Governed Self-Serve: Own Looker / LookML as the governed semantic layer and primary visualization surface, driving toward trusted self-serve analytics. Healthy at Scale: Set the practices that keep a warehouse sound: modeling conventions, access governance, cost management, and pipeline observability.

Platform Command: Command the major media platforms and their supporting technology: Google Ads, Meta, SA360, DV360, CM360, alongside tag management (GTM, Tealium), CDPs, and server-side tracking.

Privacy by Design: Own the compliance posture for data tracking, covering CCPA/CPRA, GDPR, and consent frameworks, ensuring measurement holds up in a signal-loss, cookie-deprecation environment built on durable first-party data. Practice & Team Leadership Raise the Bar: Set the technical standard and elevate the specialists around you. Senior Technical Face: Represent the practice's data capability to senior client stakeholders. Escalation Anchor: Serve as the definitive internal and external escalation point for technical, prioritization, and delivery challenges.
