About Oytun Eskiyenenturk

I like scaling up teams and systems, and disproving assumptions with data.Most junior data professionals fail in prioritization. Most senior data professionals fail by not being opinionated. My leadership philosophy is independence with accountability. I own everything in my domain, including failure of team members and business goals. I like hybrid structure in data teams. This combines domain expertise with central coordination. I prefer hiring well-rounded data professionals, who are passionate in their work and can learn quickly.
