• Foster interoperability by partnering with Data Engineering and Application teams to design reusable ingestion frameworks, data APIs, and integration patterns that empower enterprise-wide reuse.
• Collaborate closely with Master Data, Cyber Security, and Data Governance to uphold standards for data quality, security, and privacy.
• Shape modernization efforts, guiding migration strategies from legacy systems to our new Unified Data Platform.
• Engage with business stakeholders to translate use cases into scalable solutions (sales, supply chain, operations analytics, etc.).
• Contribute to governance forums and mentor technical teams on best practices and design patterns.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Data Science, or a closely related field.
• At least 8 years of experience in data architecture, modelling, and data engineering with enterprise-scale systems.
• Expertise in data modelling (conceptual, logical, physical), ETL / ELT design, and data integration (REST, API, event streams).
• Deep knowledge of cloud data platforms (Azure Fabric, Snowflake, Databricks preferred) and modern data warehouse / lake / mesh architectures.
• Experience with data governance, metadata management, lineage, and data quality frameworks.
• Proven success implementing scalable data solutions enabling analytics and automation.
• Strong communication skills to translate technical design into business value and to influence cross-functional leaders.
• Collaborative mindset and ability to work within a multidisciplinary team across Data, Automation, AI, and Governance.
• Familiarity with Microsoft Power Platform and low-code integration is an asset.
