- Architect lakehouse, warehouse, and streaming patterns leveraging technologies such as Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Redshift, Iceberg, Delta Lake, or Hudi.

- Lead the integration of governance, lineage, and catalog tools such as Collibra, Alation, Atlan, Unity Catalog, or DataHub.
- Define security architecture including row- and column-level controls, masking, encryption, and identity-aware access patterns.
- Partner with ML, BI, and product teams to ensure platform capabilities align with downstream consumption needs.
- Establish data contract and data product principles to drive ownership, quality, and decoupling between producers and consumers.
- Lead architecture reviews and provide guidance on pipeline and warehouse design proposals across teams.
- Drive cost optimization and capacity planning across the data platform estate.
- Design disaster recovery, multi-region, and high-availability strategies for critical data assets.
- Mentor data engineers and architects on platform standards and emerging best practices.
- Produce architecture artifacts including context diagrams, decision records, and reference patterns.
- Stay current with data platform research, vendor offerings, and open-source ecosystem developments.
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field.
- Eight or more years of experience in data engineering, with significant time in architecture roles.
- Deep expertise across at least two major data platforms such as Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, or Redshift.
- Strong understanding of lakehouse architectures, modern table formats, and streaming systems.
- Hands-on experience with Spark, Flink, or Kafka at production scale.
- Strong data modeling expertise across dimensional, normalized, and data-vault patterns.
- Experience implementing governance, lineage, and catalog capabilities.
- Solid grasp of cloud platforms, networking, identity, and cost optimization.
- Excellent communication, facilitation, and stakeholder management skills.
- Track record of leading large data platform initiatives across teams.
- Experience with data mesh or data product architectures.
- Familiarity with semantic layers such as dbt Semantic Layer, Cube, or LookML.
- Exposure to regulated industries with strict data residency or audit requirements.
- Cloud or platform certifications (Snowflake, Databricks, AWS, Azure, GCP).
- Public talks or writing on data architecture.
