• Lead client discovery sessions to assess data landscapes, integration points, and transformation needs.
• Define data flows, entity-relationship models, and architecture documentation to guide implementation teams.
• Ensure seamless integration with AI/ML models by designing well-structured data architectures.
• Establish and enforce data governance standards, ensuring data quality, security, and regulatory compliance.
• Evaluate and recommend emerging data technologies to enhance platform capabilities.
• Advise internal and client teams on complex data architecture challenges.

• 7+ years of experience in data architecture, data engineering, or related roles, with at least 3 years focused on enterprise-scale systems.
• Strong knowledge of data modeling techniques (dimensional, relational, NoSQL) and data warehousing concepts.
• Expertise in designing data architectures for AI/ML applications.
• Proficiency with modern data technologies including cloud data platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), data warehousing solutions, and ETL/ELT tools.
• Strong leadership skills, with the ability to influence stakeholders, mentor teams, and drive enterprise-wide data strategies.
• Hands-on problem solver with a "get it done" mindset—ready to tackle challenges and drive results.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical concepts for diverse audiences.
• Proven ability to work in a consulting environment with enterprise clients, leveraging a strong sales mindset and consultative approach to identify needs, drive value, and build lasting partnerships.

What Makes You Stand Out:

• Experience designing data architectures for Natural Processing (NLP) or Large Model (LLM) applications.
• Certifications in AWS, Azure, GCP, TOGAF, CDMP, or other relevant methodologies.
• Expertise in real-time or streaming data architectures (Kafka, Spark, etc.).
• Familiarity with Kimball Group's best practices for data modeling and warehousing.
