Data & Analytics Project Management Simulations

Data and analytics projects fail less on technology than on expectations — ambiguous requirements, shifting scope, and stakeholders who want insight yesterday. These simulations put you in charge of realistic data lake, data warehouse, BI, and machine-learning initiatives, where you’ll manage scope creep and prove value under pressure. Build the project management judgment that data-heavy programs demand.

Google · Technology

AI/ML Proof of Concept Project Manager Simulation

Lead a $380K proof of concept for an AI-powered candidate screening and matching system at Google. Two pilot hiring teams (Engineering and Sales) will test whether AI can meaningfully improve recruiter efficiency, candidate quality, and time-to-fill — while meeting Google's Responsible AI principles and EEOC requirements. Your PoC findings will determine whether Google invests $5M+ in a full platform rollout across all hiring teams globally.

ML Model Development & Deployment Project Manager Simulation

Lead a $1.2M churn prediction model build for Netflix's 230M+ subscribers. Navigate the gap between executive expectations ('tell me exactly who will cancel') and ML reality ('here are probabilities with confidence intervals'). Manage a small, brilliant team through model iteration plateaus, data leakage discoveries, fairness audits, and the hardest question in data science: when is the model good enough to ship?

Nike · Athletic Apparel & Footwear

CDP Implementation Project Manager Simulation

Deploy Twilio Segment CDP at Nike to unify 200M+ customer profiles across nike.com, SNKRS, Nike App, 1,034 retail stores, and wholesale channels. What Accenture scoped as a 'standard 12-source integration' turns out to be 23+ fragmented data systems with no universal customer ID, incomplete privacy consent records across 40+ countries, and a SNKRS identity graph that doesn't match anything else. The deeper you dig, the bigger the iceberg gets.

Navigate competing business unit agendas, data governance battles, and organizational politics across 27 simulated days as Merchandising, Marketing, and Supply Chain fight over who gets access first — and who controls the data.

PepsiCo · Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG)

Data Integration Project Manager Simulation

Lead a $3.4M ERP-to-CRM data integration project for PepsiCo's North America Beverages division. Build the integration from scratch — connecting SAP S/4HANA to Salesforce Sales Cloud through MuleSoft — while aligning sales, supply chain, and finance stakeholders who each want different things from the same data.

Walmart · Retail

Analytics / BI Dashboard Project Manager Simulation

Lead a $1.8M retail analytics dashboard project for Walmart US under an aggressive executive mandate to deliver before Q4 holiday season. Build Power BI dashboards serving 5,200+ stores while navigating the tension between Walmart's 'bias for action' culture and enterprise data governance requirements.

American Express · Financial Services

Data Warehouse Migration Project Manager Simulation

Lead a $9.2M Snowflake data warehouse migration for American Express. What looks like a straightforward Teradata-to-Snowflake lift reveals layers of hidden complexity — undocumented Informatica jobs, shadow ETL pipelines, PCI-DSS compliance gaps, and 15 years of legacy technical debt that nobody felt safe surfacing. Navigate the Technical Iceberg across 27 simulated days as the true scope of the migration reveals itself.
