Description
✨The core mission of the Director of Data & Analytics: Hack The Box is on a mission to redefine cybersecurity readiness for the AI era — and data is the engine room of that mission. As Director of Data & Analytics, you will own the execution of HTB's data platform and analytics strategy: a GCP-native ecosystem (BigQuery, Pub/Sub, Dataflow, Bigtable but also some legacy in Aiven - kafka / Clickhouse - Snowflake) serving analytics, ML, and AI workloads across every product line, from Academy and Labs to Enterprise and AI Range. In your first 6 months, you'll take operational command of a 10–12 person team across data engineering, analytics engineering, and BI, drive our Snowflake-to-BigQuery consolidation to the finish line, and establish delivery rhythms, SLOs, and quality gates that make the platform boringly reliable. Over the next year, you'll scale the function: company-wide data governance and data contracts, self-serve analytics adopted by every department, and a data platform that powers HTB's AI products — not just its dashboards. 🏢 Location & Work Mode: Athens, Attica, Greece Hybrid (2 days in the office, 3 days remote). Those based within 55 km of our Athens office will follow a hybrid work model.
