As Senior Manager, Data Excellence & Governance within Global Procurement’s Digital Transformation & AI organization, you will lead the function that makes procurement data trusted, measurable, and ready for AI.

You own data governance and quality operations, Global Procurement performance metrics and reporting, and the procurement data strategy — and you lead a multi-region team across Singapore, the United States, India, and Malaysia.

Data readiness is the single largest constraint to unlocking value from AI, automation, and analytics in procurement.

A core part of your mandate is to reimagine the data governance and excellence operating model with AI agents embedded — redefining how policies, quality monitoring, lineage, and stewardship operate when agents handle detection, enrichment, routing, and maintenance, and where people focus on exception handling, governance, and continuous improvement.

Success is measured by whether prioritized workflows run on trusted, agent-consumable data, and whether the data foundation strengthens itself through automated feedback loops rather than manual clean-up.

This is a people-leadership role.

You will develop a team of data governance and analytics professionals, set the standards and stewardship model for procurement data, and partner closely with AI Transformation, Data & Process Automation, Platform Excellence, IT, Security, and Compliance to ensure the data foundation aligns with enterprise platforms, ERP readiness, and enterprise data governance standards. ▍ Key Responsibilities A core expectation is to move procurement’s data function from reactive clean-up to an agent-embedded, self-improving operating model — where governance is executable, quality is measurable, and business value is demonstrable.

Data Governance & Quality Operations Own the procurement data governance framework — policies, standards, decision rights, and the data stewardship operating model — and ensure it is applied consistently across systems and regions.

Lead data quality and master data operations (Vendor Master, Material Master, spend, category taxonomy), moving from recurring manual clean-up toward monitored, controlled, and preventable quality at the source.

Shift governance from static documents to executable rules — champion lightweight, machine-readable policies and standards that agents can enforce automatically.

Align data handling with enterprise controls — sensitivity labels, data loss prevention, and approved access — so data can be used safely by both people and AI agents.

Business Value & Performance Measurement Own Global Procurement KPIs, metrics, and program reporting — providing leaders with a single, trusted source for performance and value.

Lead the labor productivity and business value agenda: define, quantify, and report the value realized from transformation, automation, and AI initiatives.

Establish data quality KPIs, service level agreements, and monitoring so quality and value are managed with evidence, not assumed.

Procurement Data Strategy & AI Readiness Reimagine the data governance and excellence operating model with agents embedded — defining the target model, the agentic patterns that apply (data quality agent, lineage agent, maintenance agent, steward copilot), and a getting-started roadmap sequenced against ERP and transformation milestones.

Set and drive the procurement data strategy, prioritizing the Critical Data Elements that carry the most downstream value.

Partner with the AI Data Strategist and agent build leads to define the data elements, quality thresholds, and validation rules each agent needs — mapping every business requirement to a source, owner, and readiness action.

Direct the design of the feedback loop between agent, source system, and steward so validation, correction, and prevention happen without manual clean-up wherever feasible.

Data Lineage & Technical Foundations Direct the working-level technical foundations that make the agentic model possible — data lineage, relationships, schema, and cross-system mapping — so downstream impact is traceable before a change lands.

Stand up and maintain a searchable data dictionary, business glossary, documentation, versioning, and change history that both people and agents can query and update.

Define control points at the point of entry so quality is protected where data originates.

Innovation & Reusable Assets Sponsor rapid experiments on agentic data patterns, validate impact, and turn the best into reusable building blocks for broader adoption across Source-to-Pay.

Pilot AI-based data validation and cleansing tools and assess fit against Micron’s data landscape.
