Summary Description
The Staff Enterprise Data Engineer is a senior individual contributor who plays a critical hybrid role within the Enterprise Data Management (EDM) team. This position leads the development and evolution of enterprise data foundations through strong technical design, data engineering expertise, and partnership with Data Governance and EDM leadership, while remaining hands-on in the delivery of complex data solutions. The role blends advanced design judgment and platform thinking with hands-on execution to ensure enterprise data standards are implemented through scalable, reusable engineering solutions.
This role contributes to enterprise data architecture principles, data definitions, and lifecycle governance across priority platforms and core data domains. Success requires comfort operating across strategy, design, and execution—providing technical leadership through influence, mentorship, and example rather than formal authority.
Core Responsibilities
- Lead the development and application of enterprise data architecture patterns, standards, and governance models in partnership with EDM leadership.
- Contribute to the evolution of enterprise data definitions, hierarchies, architecture principles, and data quality standards across assigned domains.
- Serve as a senior technical advisor on data structure, integration, and design trade-offs, providing recommendations to inform enterprise decisions.
- Perform hands-on engineering work within enterprise data platforms and tools to implement, validate, and reinforce standards.
- Partner closely with Data Engineering, IT Architecture, Analytics, and business stakeholders to design reusable, scalable, platform-oriented data solutions.
- Identify and remediate data anti-patterns, technical debt, and inconsistent practices within existing solutions.
- Support the transition from ad-hoc solutions to shared enterprise platforms through strong design judgment and execution.
- Act as a technical multiplier by mentoring and guiding data administrators and engineers through standards, patterns, and best practices without formal people management responsibility.
- Balance near-term delivery needs with longer-term enterprise data maturity and sustainability within assigned platforms and domains.
- Contribute to multi-cloud data solutions across Oracle and Azure environments.

- Comfort switching between strategic problem-solving and hands-on execution (hands-on-keyboard work).

Headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, The Gorilla Glue Company is a family owned, leading manufacturer of adhesives, moisturizers and tools that are known for high quality. The company manages the Gorilla Glue®, Gorilla Tape®, O'Keeffe's® and Lutz Tool® Brands. With over 800 employees, the company has seen much success and growth and has been recognized as one of the top places to work by the Cincinnati Enquirer over the last 15 years. This growth reiterates our need to continue to bring in the best people to help run and grow the business.

The Gorilla Glue® and Gorilla Tape® brands are leaders in adhesive solutions for DIYers, woodworkers and professionals. The company revamped the retail adhesive landscape with its 1999 introduction of the wildly popular Gorilla Glue, a unique, all-purpose adhesive with an amazing ability to bond almost any material including wood, ceramic, stone, metal and more. On a mission to make products that deliver impressive results, the company has since expanded its offerings to include Gorilla Tape®, Gorilla™ Super Glue Impact-Tough® Formula, Gorilla™ Wood Glue, and Gorilla™ Epoxy, further solidifying the brand’s reputation as the “go-to” product line FOR THE TOUGHEST JOBS ON PLANET EARTH®.

O'Keeffe's Company® manufactures and sells Working Hands® and Healthy Feet hand and foot creams to consumers across the USA and Canada. Developed more than 25 years ago by a pharmacist, these creams are targeted to people with severely dry, cracked hands and feet. They are sold in home center and hardware stores, drug, mass and grocery stores.
