We are seeking a principal-level (L7) leader to own and drive the Enterprise Data Strategy, AI, and New Datamart vision across our ERP-centric technology landscape. This role spans enterprise platforms including SAP S/4HANA, Oracle Cloud Applications and similar ERP ecosystems leveraging modern data platforms such as SAP Datasphere, Oracle Analytics Cloud, Databricks, Amazon Redshift, or equivalent to build a unified, intelligent data fabric.
This leader will serve as the strategic bridge between enterprise data architecture, advanced analytics, and business intelligence — translating complex, multi-Enterprise application data landscapes into actionable, AI-powered insights at scale. The ideal candidate is platform-fluent but platform-agnostic, able to design data strategies that harness the best of any enterprise application ecosystem while maintaining a clean, governed, and extensible data foundation.
A critical mandate of this role is to establish and chair a Data Governance Council within Manufacturing Operations, driving cross-functional alignment across Engineering, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, and Finance to ensure data integrity, standardization, and actionable intelligence throughout the manufacturing value chain.
Key job responsibilities
Enterprise Data Strategy & Datamart Architecture
- Define and own the enterprise data strategy across ERP-centric environments (SAP, Oracle, or similar), establishing the roadmap for modernizing legacy data warehouses into cloud-native datamarts.
- Design and implement a new Datamart architecture leveraging platforms such as SAP Datasphere, Amazon Redshift, Aurora, unifying ERP and non-ERP data through virtualization, replication, or hybrid approaches.
- Establish the semantic layer and business data fabric that preserves business context across disparate enterprise systems, enabling consistent metrics, KPIs, and definitions across all functional domains (Finance, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Engineering, Order-to-Cash, Procurement).
- Lead Data Modeling & Semantic Layer design — defining reusable business terms, metrics, relationships, and associations that support analytics, planning, and AI/ML initiatives regardless of the underlying ERP platform.
- Architect cloud data warehousing, data marts, and data pipelines & orchestration to ensure scalable, performant, and governed data delivery from multiple ERP sources.
Own Data Quality & Governance frameworks ensuring data integrity, lineage, certification, and lifecycle management across all enterprise datamarts and ERP systems — with particular emphasis on Manufacturing Operations data standards.
Manufacturing Operations Data Governance Council
This role is accountable for chartering, establishing, and chairing a Data Governance Council within Manufacturing Operations. The council will drive cross-functional data alignment and decision-making across key operational domains:
- Charter and launch the Manufacturing Operations Data Governance Council, defining its mission, scope, membership, decision rights, escalation paths, and cadence of reviews.
- Collaborate with Engineering to standardize product data definitions, BOM structures, engineering change order data flows, and design-to-manufacturing data handoffs.

Search Data Analytics Engineer Jobs in WashingtonData Analytics Engineer Jobs in Washington: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies sponsor visas for data analytics engineers in Washington?
Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Meta, and Tableau (owned by Salesforce) are among the most active visa sponsors for data analytics engineers in Washington. Beyond big tech, companies like Expedia, T-Mobile, and Zillow have consistent sponsorship histories. Mid-size analytics consultancies and healthcare data firms in the Seattle metro area also sponsor, though less frequently than the major tech employers.
Which visa types are most common for data analytics engineer roles in Washington?
The H-1B visa is the most common visa for data analytics engineers in Washington, given the role's reliance on a relevant bachelor's degree or higher in computer science, statistics, or a related field. Some employers also sponsor L-1B transfers for internal moves. Australians may qualify for the E-3 visa, which has no annual lottery and is processed on a rolling basis, making it a practical alternative for eligible candidates.
Which cities in Washington have the most data analytics engineer sponsorship jobs?
Seattle and its immediate neighbors, Bellevue and Redmond, account for the overwhelming majority of data analytics engineer sponsorship jobs in Washington. Redmond is home to Microsoft's headquarters, while Seattle houses Amazon, Google, and a dense cluster of tech and retail analytics teams. Kirkland has grown as a secondary hub. Outside the Puget Sound region, Spokane and Tacoma offer limited but emerging opportunities, primarily in healthcare and public sector data roles.
How to find data analytics engineer visa sponsorship jobs in Washington?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for international candidates seeking visa sponsorship and lets you filter data analytics engineer roles by state, including Washington. Because the platform focuses on verified sponsoring employers, you avoid sifting through listings from companies unlikely to file an H-1B or E-3 visa petition. Searching by role and location on Migrate Mate gives you a targeted view of active openings at Washington employers with a real sponsorship track record.
Are there any Washington-specific considerations for data analytics engineers seeking sponsorship?
Washington has no state income tax, which affects prevailing wage calculations and overall compensation benchmarking that employers submit with Labor Condition Applications. The University of Washington and Washington State University produce a large international graduate population, meaning competition for sponsored roles at top Seattle-area employers is significant. Candidates with experience in cloud platforms, particularly AWS and Azure, align closely with what Washington's dominant tech employers are hiring for in analytics engineering roles.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored data analytics engineer jobs in Washington?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
