It has come to our attention that various international organizations or individuals have been offering false employment opportunities at Aecon Group Inc. Aecon Group Inc. employment policies and processes involve interviews, and candidates who seek employment are never required to pay us any sum of money. To do so would be contrary to our business conduct guidelines and ethical practices. We also do not extend formal offers of employment or execute employment agreements through social media or social chat platforms.

We take this matter extremely seriously and are working with the appropriate authorities to shut down such fraudulent schemes. Please remain vigilant on this matter and report any suspicious outreach to your local authorities and email any concerns to aecon@aecon.com

  • Partner with business units to define and operationalize data standards for critical data elements (CDEs).
  • Monitor, validate, and steward metadata to ensure accuracy, completeness, and alignment with enterprise data policies.
  • Support data discovery efforts by partnering with SMEs to locate analytical data in source systems and validate its contextual meaning.
  • Provide profiling information and data lineage to help users understand data quality, fitness for use, and business context.
  • Document, track, and resolve data issues raised by end users to maintain data relevancy and trust.
  • Ensure data assets are properly categorized and enriched with metadata for improved discoverability.
  • Continuously refine cataloging and metadata processes for usability, scalability, and alignment with evolving data architecture.
  • Advocate for standardized intake and prioritization processes for metadata, quality fixes, and glossary updates.
  • Work closely with Data Analysts, Data Engineers, and business SMEs to support governed data access and improved data literacy.

 

What You Bring to the Team:

  • An undergraduate degree in Computer Science, Information Management, Business Technology Management, or a related field; or an equivalent combination of training and experience.
  • Certifications in Data Governance/Data Management (e.g., DAMA, CDMP, DCAM) are not required, but they are considered an asset.
  • Minimum 3 years of experience in Data Governance, Data Management, or Data Analysis.
  • Experience with master data management, data cataloging, metadata management, and enterprise data quality.
  • Experience with IBM Match 360, IBM Watsonx Data Intelligence, or similar governance/MDM platforms (e.g., Collibra, Alation, Informatica) is a strong asset.
  • Experience with SQL and data modeling tools is a plus.
  • Knowledge of SAP or construction-related business systems, especially Oracle/Primavera P6, is an asset.
  • Strong analytical mindset with the ability to organize and make sense of complex data landscapes.
  • Excellent communication skills—able to explain complex data concepts in clear, non-technical terms.
