Business Intelligence Manager

GENERAL DISCRIPTION

As the BI Engineering Manager, you will own key analytics functions to make Crane a more effective, efficient enterprise. This includes establishing a shared reality for the enterprise, by maintaining core datasets in our data warehouse; defining a common scoreboard and enabling feedback loops via consistent, reliable metrics; enabling core business teams by building and refining a product portfolio of dashboards & operational tools; and ensuring excellence in technical execution, by managing a team of Business Intelligence Engineers.

ESSENTIAL JOB FUNCTIONS

Key responsibilities will include:

• Maintaining key relationships, by running or attending stakeholder calls with each of the core BI domains
• Ensuring tactical engineering decisions are sound, through design reviews and design standards
  • This does *not* include reviewing every PR. While you should review a sample of PRs to keep a pulse on team progress and check quality, code reviews are an engineer responsibility
• Coordinate the actions of the BI team by
  • Hosting regular stand-ups
  • Holding team members accountable for timely ticket/issue updates
  • Planning sprints and managing project capacity & pace
• Build an effective engineering team by
  • Hiring skilled candidates
  • Setting regular 1:1s and following through on performance management with staff
• Coordinate with engineering/development manager peers on cross-team projects
• Set & execute strategic direction with the Director of Enterprise Analytics, including
  • Hiring & onboarding standards
  • Team capacity management
  • Cross-domain analytics strategy
  • Technical strategy, including data warehouse design, developer tooling, and BI engineer workflow design

You should *not* take on critical-path development items, but you should spend ~10-15% of time contributing fixes, minor features, and debugging. This will allow you to stay in tune with the developer experience and maintain a working knowledge of our enterprise data models.

The BI Engineering Manager role is effective when you empower the team to execute quickly and efficiently, with a common vision. While technical leadership is a core responsibility and hands-on skills are expected, this is not a developer role.
