Olga Woschitz

Olga Woschitz

Olga Woschitz is a data architect focused on building the scalable, future-proof foundations required for modern AI. She specializes in designing systems that drive real business impact by connecting data strategy directly to implementation.

Her interest in AI-ready architecture grew from solving the real-world problems she saw inside organizations: Legacy pipelines that break under pressure. Teams that struggle to collaborate. Data that cannot support even basic analytics, let alone AI. This experience drives her to build modern, domain-oriented architectures that make AI possible instead of painful.

I speak to leaders and teams navigating fragmented data, manual processes, and growing complexity who want systems they can rely on.

With over six years of experience in enterprise data architecture, business intelligence, and automation, I work closely with executive leadership to align data decisions with real business priorities. My focus is not on tools for their own sake, but on clarity, trust, and long term ownership.

I am known for simplifying complex environments and reducing unnecessary tools. I establish clear standards for data quality and integration so reporting holds up over time. Most recently, I led enterprise automation and integration initiatives that generated over 150K in annualized savings within a single quarter while strengthening data trust across the organization.

Audiences value my ability to translate technical complexity into practical guidance that resonates with both leadership and practitioners. My sessions are grounded in real enterprise experience and designed to help organizations make better decisions, reduce friction, and build systems their teams actually adopt.

In addition to my full time role, I lead A River of Data, advising founders and finance leaders on building practical, well documented BI and automation systems that support sustainable growth.

I work best with organizations that care about building technology that works for people, not just systems.

Topics I Speak On

• Making data meaningful for people, not just systems
• Reducing tool sprawl and restoring trust in reporting
• Designing data and automation systems that scale with the business
• From dashboards to decisions: enabling leadership confidence
• Data governance that supports adoption, not friction
• Change management for analytics and automation initiatives
• Bridging the gap between technical teams and executive leadership

Attendees leave with:

• A clear framework for evaluating data and reporting environments
• Practical guidance for reducing manual work and system fragmentation
• A better understanding of how to build trust in data across teams
• Insight into aligning data and automation initiatives with business goals
• Language and structure for leading change, not just implementing tools
