What you'll learn
Learn the business before you change it
Find the metrics that matter, how they are defined, and where the data is wrong, before your first big project.
Map stakeholders in your first two weeks
Know who decides, who knows, and who blocks, so you build the right relationships first.
Pick an early win that compounds
Small, visible, and useful to someone with influence. Not a dashboard rebuild nobody asked for.
Use AI to read the company in days
Point AI at the docs, metric definitions, and query history to build a map of the business fast.
Why this topic matters
Your reputation at a new company is set in the first 90 days, mostly by what you choose not to do. New data hires import their old company's playbook, rebuild dashboards nobody asked for, or take on too much too soon. The ones who land well learn the metrics, map the people, and pick one early win. AI now lets you read a company's docs and query history in days instead of months.
