About the Role

The Company: AvePoint is the Microsoft Cloud expert. Over 15,000 companies and 5 million cloud users trust AvePoint to accelerate the migration, management, and protection of their Office 365 and SharePoint data. AvePoint’s integrated cloud, hybrid, and on-premises software solutions are enhanced by 24/7 support and award-winning services. Organizations across six continents and all industries rely on AvePoint to ease transition to the Microsoft Cloud, increase IT administrator productivity, and satisfy governance and compliance objectives. A three-time Microsoft Partner of the Year, AvePoint has been named to the Inc. 500|5000 six times and the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™ five times. AvePoint is a Microsoft Global ISV Partner, a Microsoft Gold Partner in Application Development, Cloud Platform, Cloud Productivity, and Collaboration and Content, and a US Government GSA provider via strategic partnerships. Founded in 2001, AvePoint is privately held and headquartered in Jersey City, NJ.   Overview Reporting to the AvePoint CFO, the Chief Data and Analytics Officer is responsible for defining and executing AvePoint’s enterprise data strategy, turning trusted, unified data into a competitive advantage. This leader will modernize the company’s data architecture, establish enterprise governance, and build a scalable data foundation that supports product-led growth, customer intelligence, AI initiatives, operational excellence, and executive decision making.   The CDO will serve as the enterprise executive responsible for transforming AvePoint's data into a governed, reusable, AI-ready business asset. The role owns enterprise data strategy, governance, data quality, analytics enablement, data products, and product telemetry standards, while establishing the operating model required to deliver trusted, consistent decision-making across the business.  As AvePoint continues evolving into a product-led organization, the CDO will unify disparate data sources into a trusted enterprise data ecosystem that enables self-service analytics, customer insights, product intelligence, and data-driven innovation. Working across Product, Engineering, GTM, Customer Success, Finance, People, IT, Security, and Compliance, this leader will ensure data functions as a strategic enterprise capability rather than a collection of disconnected systems.  The successful candidate combines strategic vision with deep technical expertise in modern data platforms and has a track record of building a culture where decisions are consistently informed by trusted, accessible data.  Key Responsibilities  <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="6"
