Data Architect

The Opportunity

Euna Solutions is building a modern data foundation, and we need the architect who will define it. You'll set the reference architecture, engineering patterns, and governance posture for an entire data program — then roll up your sleeves and build alongside the team when it matters. If you thrive on designing things right the first time and handing durable patterns to engineers who can run with them, this is your engagement.

What You'll Do

Define a managed AWS reference architecture that delivers reliability without requiring a large team to operate it

Specify the layered data model — raw to cleansed to curated to a fully safe analytical layer that holds no sensitive data — so the program never becomes a data swamp

Establish governance across every layer: data classification, constituent PII handling, access control, lineage, and residency

Create reusable engineering patterns for capture, land-and-store, transform-and-serve, and govern, so every team building data products assembles them consistently instead of reinventing plumbing

Design loose coupling from operational systems using change-data-capture or scheduled extracts, without creating hard dependencies on their roadmaps

Set the two-speed guardrail — make the governed, pattern-based path the default and define the narrow criteria under which a low-code workflow is permitted

Drop into delivery and build data products yourself when the team needs the extra hands

What You Bring

Senior data architecture experience with production AWS systems, including S3-based lake or lakehouse designs and a governed analytical layer

Deep fluency with medallion or layered data architectures and the governance controls that ride across them

Experience designing contextual or semantic data layers that reduce GenAI token consumption so downstream AI features run faster and cost less

Hands-on knowledge of managed AWS data services — Glue, Athena, Lake Formation, DMS or equivalent — with a strong bias toward managed over self-run

Proven experience designing for data classification, PII handling, access control, lineage, and residency, ideally in a regulated or public sector context

The judgment to build just enough: you can define a blueprint without over-engineering it, defer what the backlog doesn't yet need, and hand off clean, documented patterns a small team can execute against

Nice-to-Have Qualifications

Familiarity with dbt and warehouse-side modeling (e.g. Redshift) and with low-code orchestration such as n8n

Experience with Canadian data residency requirements and multi-region AWS deployments

A track record of standing up governance from day one rather than retrofitting it later

Location

This position will be hybrid with 3 days/week in our Oakville office. (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday)

Compensation Range: $165,000 - $210,000 CAD We believe in openness, so we publish our range from the start. Where an offer lands depends on your background, strengths, and how you'll contribute to the work ahead.
