Describe an enterprise Data Governance program you led. What was the scope, your role, the operating model and the measurable outcome?

How have you integrated Data Governance, Data Quality, Lineage and Observability rather than implementing them as separate capabilities?

Explain how you define data ownership, stewardship, critical data elements, policies, standards, controls, RACI and governance forums.

Describe a Data Quality framework you implemented. How were rules, thresholds, scorecards, issues, root causes and remediation managed?

How have you captured and validated end-to-end lineage across source systems, transformations, data platforms and business or regulatory reports?

What Data Observability use cases have you implemented for freshness, volume, schema, distribution, pipeline health and anomaly detection? How were alerts operationalized?

Which governance, catalog, DQ, lineage and observability tools have you configured or implemented hands-on? Describe your depth in each.

Describe how you integrated governance tooling with cloud/lakehouse platforms, ETL/ELT, BI, ticketing and CI/CD processes.

How have you defined governance and data-health KPIs/KRIs and demonstrated business value, risk reduction or control effectiveness to executives?

Describe your experience with financial-services data risk or regulatory expectations such as BCBS 239, privacy, retention, auditability or regulatory reporting.

Tell us about a major governance adoption challenge. How did you influence stakeholders and embed sustainable stewardship practices?

What would your first 90-day approach be to assess the current state and establish a prioritized roadmap for this role?
