About Pearson
At Pearson, our purpose is simple: to help people realize the life they imagine

providing digital content, assessments, and services that support learners at
every stage.
As part of Pearson’s Chief Technology Office (OCTO), the Keystone Data
Governance team is responsible for enabling trusted, high-quality, and compliant
data across the enterprise. We are transforming how data is governed by
embedding automation, scalability, and modern data engineering practices into
our governance model.
The Role
We are seeking highly motivated Data Governance Engineers to join our
Chennai-based team. This is a hands-on engineering role focused on building and
scaling automated Data Governance capabilities across Pearson’s data ecosystem.

20–30% governance-related work). The expectation is that
strong data engineers will apply their skills to governance-focused use cases,
while developing deeper expertise in data governance, metadata, and compliance
domains over time.
You will work closely with global Data Governance leadership, data engineering
teams, and external partners to design and implement solutions that
operationalize governance at scale. This role is critical to reducing manual
effort for business stakeholders while improving data quality, compliance, and
discoverability.
Key Responsibilities
