• Map business opportunities to appropriate data architecture patterns and evolve the architecture as strategies and technologies mature.


• Analyze multi-structured data and metadata from diverse sources and select, model, and document datasets that fulfill analytics requirements.


• Design adaptable, scalable data models and architect dataflows to support analytics, operational processes, and machine learning.


• Define governed access patterns with clear specifications for implementation and stewardship.


• Unify data requirements for key enterprise concepts by harmonizing business definitions and semantics and producing semantic, lifecycle, and taxonomy models.

Preferred Skills:

• Polyglot data modeling across relational, dimensional, semantic, and event-driven paradigms.


• Expert SQL and intermediate Python for transformation, automation, and data quality checks.
