I work on the master data team
Years of maintaining master data gave you something many data people do not have: you know where data is born and why it goes wrong. With a method and a university certificate, that experience becomes a Data Steward or Master Data Analyst role, with more recognition and more room to grow. AI will need people who take care of data. It might as well be you.
Both are free. No credit card required.
You have felt this
You hold up master data quality for the whole company. But when promotion time comes, the person who gets noticed is the one presenting the report, while the person who made sure the data was right stays in the background.
Open the request, check the documents, fix, approve. Tomorrow, again. You know you can do more. You just have not found the way out of this loop yet.
Coworkers moving into data jobs, people working from home for companies abroad. And you, who know master data better than many of them, still unsure how to take that step.
Standardizing descriptions, blocking duplicates, setting master data rules. In the market, this is called data governance, and people who do it with method hold roles like Data Steward and Master Data Analyst. These roles come with more visibility, more respect and room to grow.
Once you learn to name, measure and defend what you do, the conversation changes. With your manager, in your performance review and in the interview for your next job. That includes remote jobs and companies outside Brazil, which look for exactly this profile.
Someone who never worked with master data has to learn what a duplicate supplier is, or a swapped unit of measure, or a wrong tax classification code (NCM). You have watched all of it happen, and you know the damage each one does.
What you are missing is the frame: a method, the tools the market uses and a university certificate that shows any recruiter you know what you are talking about.
