We require a Snowflake Solution Architect to work on remote basis.
Role Title: Solution Architect
Job Responsibilities:
- -The Solution Architect owns the end-to‑end technical design of the OneWA EDW platform, translating OFM's Workday-to-Snowflake reporting requirements into an architecture that supports self-service analytics and production go-live readiness.
- -Defines the overall data flow across the RAW ? REFINED ? CURATED pipeline,
- -Sets the architectural standards for Python-based Workday API ingestion (including CDC and incremental loading),
- -Establishes the dbt modeling approach across functional schemas (accounting, assets, budget, customers, FDM, payments, suppliers).
- -Designs how Informatica IDMC/CDGC integrates with Workday, Snowflake, Python/dbt, and Power BI/SAP BusinessObjects to support the Inventory ? Control ? Deliver ?
- -Observe governance maturity model, and defines the approach for capturing lineage on custom Python pipelines that CDGC cannot auto-discover.
- -Architects the PII masking approach and sets technical guardrails for DEV/QA/Pre-PROD/PROD environment design, working closely with the EDW CI/CD Engineer to ensure deployment pipelines and promotion paths are built to the intended architecture rather than dictating pipeline mechanics directly.
- -Supports all workstreams rather than a single track, partnering with the Technical Lead, Data Governance Lead, and Delivery team.
- -Defines non-functional requirements — performance, scalability, monitoring/alerting, and recovery/rollback design — that feed the Production Go-Live readiness milestone, and evaluates where AI-enabled capabilities (e.g., Snowflake Cortex AI for natural-language querying over the CURATED layer, automated anomaly detection during reconciliation testing) can be layered in without added infrastructure.
Required Skills and Experience:
Strong experience architecting cloud data warehouse solutions on Snowflake and enterprise data governance tooling (Informatica IDMC/CDGC) is required, along with the ability to make and defend architecture decisions.
