Reporting to Joris Van Genechten, you will strategically lead the Data team, ensuring alignment with company objectives, product vision, and customer satisfaction. This role focuses on evangelizing modern data processes, driving innovation, and achieving excellence in data architecture and big data processing across the entire company. The responsibilities will include:
Moving from a startup to a scale-up we are keeping our innovative spirit whilst we build the foundations of tomorrow's energy retailers software and data infrastructure. Product is the foundation of our company and needs to perform at a top level to make our vision a success. Product is driven by many talented and opinionated people who are eager to drive our vision forward. It is the place where engineering, technology, data, architecture and energy expertise come together to make a difference.
As head of data/ team lead you are expected to be present and guide the team which is mostly based in our Antwerp office. This can be done partially remotely but we do expect you to bring the team together on key moments and make sure they are motivated and empowered.
This role is currently an Office-Mix Hybrid role. This means you would chat with your leader and team to define the number of days you need to be together to collaborate and achieve outcomes in close proximity. This is often 1 - 2 days a week. The other days you have flexibility.
We're at a turning point in history. Climate change is changing the world faster than ever before. Utilities will play a crucial role in the transformation of our society to fight climate change and become carbon-neutral, while at the same time making sure people and businesses can continue to use energy supply like they've been used to for so many years.
At Gorilla, we're determined to not stay aside, but to make a real impact on the utility industry by providing data services that allow utilities to play the role they need to play in the quest for a net-zero society. By building something that solves a real problem, and by being the best at what we do.
