Head of Data Platform – build Gubra’s data foundation from the ground up

Do you want to build the data foundation behind scientific innovation in a growing biotech company? Gubra is looking for a Head of Data Platform to take end-to-end ownership of a new enterprise data platform connecting scientific, operational, and business data across the organisation.

This is a director-level role combining technical ownership, people leadership, and greenfield development. You will shape the architecture and roadmap, build the team around the platform, and remain close enough to the technology to take part in key technical decisions.

The ambition is to create a scalable data foundation that supports research, laboratory operations, machine learning, and selected business functions across Gubra.

Build the platform – and the team around it

Gubra is investing in its digital and data foundation, and you will join at an early stage.

As Head of Data Platform, you will lead the design, implementation, and operation of the platform, built around AWS and Databricks. You will work across architecture, data pipelines, reusable data products, governance, and security while translating scientific and business needs into technical priorities.

At the same time, you will build and lead the data engineering team. Two Data Engineers are planned to join, an external Data Architect is already supporting the initial design, and the team is expected to grow further. You will report directly to the CTO and become part of the CTO’s leadership team.

Your key responsibilities will include:

  • Leading the design and development of a scalable and secure enterprise data platform
  • Building reliable data pipelines and reusable data products for scientists, ML teams, engineers, and business users
  • Defining the platform roadmap and driving key architectural and technical decisions
  • Establishing data governance, security, access control, and documentation standards
  • Building, mentoring, and developing the data engineering team
  • Working closely with stakeholders across research, laboratory operations, software engineering, and the wider business.

Who are you?

You have a strong background in data engineering, analytics, or data platforms and experience leading both people and technical delivery. You combine leadership with enough technical depth to challenge architectural decisions and engage credibly with engineers.

You bring extensive experience with AWS and Databricks and have designed scalable, secure, and governed data solutions before. Experience with lakehouse architecture, data mesh, medallion architecture, Airflow, Delta Lake, or Unity Catalog is an advantage.

Experience from biotech, pharma, life sciences, or another research-intensive environment is beneficial but not required. The same applies to experience with regulated environments and GxP.

Personally, you are a pragmatic and collaborative leader who can create a clear direction, bring stakeholders and employees with you, and balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution.

About Gubra

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
