Job Description:

The data steward is a core part of the enterprise data management strategy for Cotality, with responsibility for delivering the data management program for a domain of data and proactively improving the health of the data in their domain.

Unlocking Value and Governing Cotality's Data Assets

The Senior Appraisal Data Steward is the Data Fluency Leader and Value Enabler for Cotality's core appraisal data assets. This is a strategic, high-impact role responsible for moving Data Stewardship beyond basic curation into AI Enablement and Enterprise Confidence.

As a dual role, you are the highest-level expert in data fluency across the property domain and the data supply chain. You act as the primary Business/Technology Liaison, responsible for ensuring all products, models, and decisions built on Cotality's data have a strong foundation of data that is fit-for-use and has consistent interpretation.

Your core mandate is to fundamentally unlock the strategic use of our appraisal data assets for the business by enforcing governance principles and enabling effective data consumption. You will champion the "why" behind governance, providing the essential scaffolding and framing the organization relies on, ensuring that data is Findable, Usable, Well Understood, and Trustworthy. Your success will be measured by delivering AI-Ready Data and championing AI-Enabled Data Stewardship.

Key Responsibilities:

Data Governance Interpretation and Advocacy
  • Standard Advocacy & Policy Enablement: Support the creation and maintenance of the Data Stewardship Standard Handbook , which rolls up to the overall Data Governance Policy. Your focus will be on operationalizing the spirit of the rule to accelerate business value, not on process constraints.
  • Data Classification and Metadata Stewardship: Responsible for Metadata management and Classification of all core data fields in the property domains. You will champion and contribute to this process to ensure data assets are Findable, Usable, Understandable, and Trustworthy in alignment with Cotality's enterprise goals.
  • Compliance and Permissible Use: Partner with data governance, data sourcing, and compliance to ensure appropriate permissible use standards are tagged and enforced.
  • Center of Excellence (CoE) Leadership: Drive the adoption of stewardship principles through the CoE, acting as the subject matter expert to democratize governance functions across non-FTE roles in Product, Operations, and Data Science.

Data Asset Strategy & Ontological Enablement (The Data Asset Enabler)
  • Strategic Data Asset Readiness & Fit-for-Use: Champion the fitness-for-purpose of appraisal data assets for all business use cases, from critical production products to future exploratory needs. This includes:
  • Partner with Client teams to translate feedback loops into systemic data fixes; lead the prioritization of root-cause improvements over manual patches to ensure long-term integrity and trust in Cotality's core assets.
  • Partnering with Data Quality and Engineering teams to define and continually refine quality metrics and scorecards based on appraisal domain knowledge.
  • Proactively driving action plans for appraisal data improvement based on quality scores, assessing urgency (e.g., KBE status), and recommending whether to adjust governance rules or the data itself.
  • Strategically cataloging and classifying all appraisal data (including unused or exploratory data) based on its current and potential use in CotalityBBTE
