Head of Data, Platform and Intelligence

Babel Street provides advanced AI and data analytics for identity intelligence and risk operations across government and commercial customers. The Head of Data, Platform and Intelligence will define and lead a North Star data strategy and architecture, building a unified, AI-native data platform that enables knowledge graph capabilities, scalable retrieval for LLMs, and data-as-a-product across the organization.

Skills

  • Proven experience designing and migrating large-scale data platforms and architectures.
  • Hands-on experience with multi-cloud environments, especially Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and BigQuery.
  • Deep knowledge of analytical warehouses, search/index systems, object storage, and distributed systems.
  • Experience building data platforms for AI/ML, including vector search and retrieval architectures.
  • Experience with graph data models, entity resolution, and knowledge graph construction.
  • Strong API and data access pattern design for both human and machine consumption.
  • Track record managing performance, SLOs, observability, and cost optimization at scale.
  • Excellent cross-functional communication and stakeholder management skills.

Responsibilities

  • Define and evolve the target-state North Star data architecture across warehouse, search, object storage, and real-time systems.
  • Design and operate AI-native data services (API-first, agent-callable) optimized for LLMs, RAG, and agentic workflows.
  • Own the lifecycle of data: ingestion, transformation, storage, semantics, retrieval, and productization.
  • Lead platform rationalization and phased migrations (e.g., BigQuery, OpenSearch/Elasticsearch, S3) with minimal operational risk.
  • Build and govern the company knowledge graph including entity resolution, identity modeling, and relationship mapping.
  • Establish a data-as-a-product operating model with contracts, ownership, metadata, and discoverability.
  • Define and enforce data quality, schema, metadata, and governance standards across teams.
  • Ensure performance, reliability, observability and cost economics (cost per query/workload, storage efficiency).
  • Partner closely with Product, Engineering, and AI/Applied ML teams to enable integrated data+model solutions.
  • Drive hiring, mentorship, and cross-functional collaboration to scale the data organization.

Education

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related technical field required.
  • Master’s degree or PhD in a relevant field preferred.

Benefits

  • Comprehensive health benefits (medical, dental, vision) with 85-100% employer-covered premiums
  • Life & disability insurance
  • Traditional and Roth 401(k) with competitive employer match
  • Unlimited flexible leave and 12 paid federal holidays
  • Tuition reimbursement and professional development support
  • Equal opportunity employer with reasonable accommodations
