The Data Domain Owner will own and lead the strategic direction, prioritization, and governance for one of DaVita's five enterprise data domains (Patient, Provider, Payer, Teammate, Village). Domain Owners are accountable for ensuring domain data provides substantial enterprise value (e.g., high-quality, accessible, compliant data that enables high-value Village use cases). The Domain Owner will coordinate closely with Data Stewards and Data Custodians across several 'sub-domains' (categories of data within the domain). This role is essential for making the centralization successful because they serve as the voice of the business for that data, ensuring the new Central Data Hub team builds and executes use cases that meet business needs.

Strategic Leadership & Vision

• Set and communicate a clear vision and priorities for data efforts within the domain, ensuring alignment with Village-wide priorities such as improving clinical outcomes, driving census growth, and inflecting Teammate engagement and retention.

• Partner with departmental management and business leaders to develop strategic and tactical solutions that support business strategies. Coordinate with other Domain Owners and the enterprise data product team to ensure alignment across domains and limit overlapping efforts.

• Coordinate with Village leadership to ensure alignment with Village-wide priorities, including working with business lane leaders on high-value data issues and with data management leadership for the coordinated use of resources.

• Promote data product adoption with business users in governance forums. When needed, escalate disagreements on prioritization to Data or Business leadership for resolution.

• Decision Rights (Governance): be final decision-maker for data issues and policy changes within domain. Facilitate Data Governance Council (DGC) and guide agenda/decisions required in governance.

• Guidance and Support: Support Data Stewards and Data Custodians as they resolve data quality issues and build data products within their respective sub-domains by helping to prioritize issues and initiatives.
• Organize and run regular Domain Working Groups to drive accountability for sub-domain teams (Data Stewards and Data Custodians) and ensure alignment on topics like data definitions.

• Defining Standards: establish and approve the master definitions, quality rules, and metadata for data domain.

• Risk Management: own the responsibility for compliance and regulatory risks associated with their data (e.g., privacy rules for patient data).

• Prioritization: work with the new central hub team to prioritize data projects and quality initiatives based on the business value of domain, ensuring CDO teammates are focused on the most critical needs.

• Comprehensive benefits: Medical, dental, vision, 401(k) match, paid time off, PTO cash out
• Support for you and your family: Family resources, EAP counseling sessions, access Headspace®, backup child and elder care, maternity/paternity leave and more
• Professional development programs: DaVita offers a variety of programs to help strong performers grow within their career and also offers on-demand virtual leadership and development courses through DaVita's online training platform StarLearning.
